At the pumpkin patch

Lexie really enjoyed her first trip to the pumpkin patch. Here are some of her thoughts on the experience.

Look at all the pumpkins!

How do you tell if it's a good one?

This might be the one!




I got the grand prize winner right here.



I got my pumpkin, so I'm ready to roll whenever you are.


This wind is really messing with my hair.

Forget the pumpkins; this leaf is so cool.

The Life of a Six Month Old

Since her half-birthday Lexie has added some skills to her repertoire and made some great discoveries.

She is sitting up.

For an added degree of difficulty, she now sticks out her tongue while sitting up.

She loves carrots and actually did get some in her mouth.

She's discovered that toes make great appetizers.

She's learned that the basket that holds her toys can be a toy itself.

She's realized that Peek-a-boo is just more fun with a collander.

With the world changing so much for her each day, she's learned to keep an eye on things.

Go Dawgs!

Lexie enjoyed her first Bulldawg weekend.

She'd been preparing for weeks.

Check out these cute dresses worn to Bulldawg Sundays at church.

On Saturday, she put on her game face.

She hunkered down with her version of Uga.

She was a bit concerned at 12:31 when the Pay-Per-View had yet to start,

but she was jumping for joy as the Bulldawgs got their first win.

All jumped out

Lexie's summer

Since returning from Destin, Lexie has had a great summer.

She enjoyed her first trip to the pool.

She discovered her Exersaucer,

and loves it!

She's taken the opportunity to relax a bit.

We have thoroughly enjoyed watching her experience her first summer.

Lexie's first trip to the beach

We spent a few days in Destin, Florida where Lexie really seemed to enjoy herself.

The shirt says it all.

Another day, another bathing suit and hat. Always stylish, though.

Just chillin'.

So many new things to see

Playing in the sand and waves beats just looking at them.

Just too precious for words

Wonder what she's thinking.

I will not claim to know exactly what Lexie is thinking, but I just have to speculate.

Man, I wish I could grab that thing.

Daddy got me out of my bouncy-seat to watch this horse race, and Big Brown finished last.

When my feet can reach the floor, you're going to see some awesome jumping.

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, Mommy?

I'm cute, and I know it.

Updated Pictures

Lexie has grown a lot since my last post, so here are some recent pics.

We've grown accustomed to having Lexie be all smiles.

However, there were no smiles for this picture right after a recent bath.

Back to all smiles with the right out of the bath hair covered by a new hat.
