Oh baby!

Time has become a warp for me as I get used to taking care of Lexi. When I want to eat - nope sorry mom, my turn to eat. When I want to sleep - eyes wide open wanting to know what we are doing next. Most days I don't feel like I've done anything that isn't baby related until around 2pm, and that certainly doesn't include lunch or a shower. Every day is such an adventure with this little one though. She is incredibly brilliant. She is learning so much by watching and observing. She LOVES the mobile over her changing table. She watches Pooh and Tigger rotate around with a big smile on her face. She is indifferent to Eyore, and she just plain doesn't like Piglet.



Christmas was an adventure in baby clothes. Yes, Jon and I did receive some great gifts, but Lexi did well in expanding her wardrobe and her toys and her decor. She did not remain awake for much of her gift opening, but Benji was kind enough to help open her gifts. Benji had a wonderful Christmas as well. (I do miss getting together with extended family over the holidays, so next year I think I am going to do something about that.)



Being a new mom is an emotional journey that surprises me every day. Lexi is a joy, and every day I see her grow and develop a bit more. I hope I can help her achieve everything I want for her life.
