Lexi's First Christmas

We had a wonderful christmas. We're lucky to
have both families so close to be able to spend christmas
eve with the Petersens and christmas day with the Winns.
Michael Scott (The Office) says "presents are a great way to
show someone how much care about them, its like your saying
i love you this many dollar's worth" thats funny but definately
NOT true. however lexi sure was spoiled by people who love her
and we sure are grateful. And we want to thank everyone for
all the fun toys and cute clothes. She has spent the whole day
banging her drums (thanks nicole and ray) opening and
closing her noisy book (thanks grandpa, Cody and I both have pooh
bear phrases stuck in our head) wrestling her blow up penguin
(thanks grandma) brushing the indestructable butterflies teeth (thanks Nana)
chasing her light up ball (thanks great grandma/grandpa winn)
Dressing up in her cute dresses from Heaths and Nielsens,
and snuggling up in her cute pj's from Madi & Halli.
Could she look anymore pleased to get kisses from her daddy?
She already loves playing dress ups, she's wearing tess's fluffy
pink scarf, and wouldn't take it off! HOLY COW! FINGER PAINTS!!
madi was thrilled to get her puppy from Jess.
She was cute and had to wrap her present to lexi
herself! the box with the ball of wrapping paper
crinkled and taped on top was adorable!
She was also willing to share her Mountain Dew
with Lexi.... only a few more years :)
(nicole or jess could you please send me
any pictures you took on christmas?)


This was Lexifiguring out the present thing. It took her

a while to get over the fact that the wrapping

paper was being thrown on the ground, but
once she did, she was throwing the paper
on the ground herself and trying to get into
the boxes to eat the tag on her clothes.
This one is her confused look.
Gotta love the stocking stuffers..
Lexi loves her cute hat, own set of keys,
and her yummy treats that santa brought
P.S. everyone we found cody's keys that she
lost a few days ago... you can all stop looking
Bumpa keeps asking "where's the other ear to her hat?"
so just to clear up the confusion...there is only supposed
to be one knot thing on top!
The famous nativty. Andy was set on being Jesus and since we made him
wait so long to open presents he got to be baby jesus,
Brew was Joseph and Ash was Mary. Lexi the angel,
Ayla the sheep, Tess the shepard, jacque the star,
Cody Lisa And Tyson were the Wisemen
(it only made sense for me to be the wiseman, Right?!)

The angel and the wiseman ringing bells,
He's such a great dad. We are so lucky to have him!
They both were constantly trying to grab the wings, but Ayla had the advantage
since they weren't on her back! They really enjoyed playing with eachother this time
Cute toosh... Watch Out The Little Misses is Crawling!!
Ayla's little Jazz Cheerleader outfit, she was so thrilled!
Tess's belt buckle from the boys!
They are always looking out for her, Her sugar daddy
will appreciate her having this for the "farm"

My family has a tradition that we get pajamas on christmas eve, and this was
Lexi's first set of "christmas eve pajamas." Lucky her they even
came with a tag to chew! YES!
"here let me help you Ayla"
Our own little Richard Simmons'
"And let me help you Lexi"
The girls love Andy's yummy trains...
Andy isn't so sure about it though.
She was Ashley's buddy. while playing trains
she would just take a break and lay down on Ashley's lap
Just chilling, she will be missing that swing in FIVE days!
She was sleeping with her head in the
corner and her butt in the air, it was so cute.
And by the time we got the camera she had started
to wake up, but it was still cute. She's trying to find where her hand went

in Nigeria for a ransom" we decided its time to go private,

Our Own Winter Wonderland

Lexi telling santa that all she
needs for christmas are her top 2
front teeth to accompany the bottom 2.
The girls..and tyson waiting for trax
what an adventure for us!
I'm pretty sure that we're santa's favorite every year,
Lexi was lucky to have something shiny in front of
her to keep her attention. And Ayla was fantastic
for santa. However Madi and Kiara want everyone to
know that Santa is a fake, they saw him get in his truck
to drive home, and take off his beard... Dont waste
your wishlist with that santa!
Lexi was quite fine with the fake though.
We couldn't get a picture of her looking at us,
because she was really fascinated with his beard
and bent her neck all the way backwards to see him.
How brave
Six months going on Sixteen! This is
our little co-pilot, one of the advantages
of living in Tremonton...
(Until Jan.1 and then its Bear River City for us!
WOO HOO!)
She found something she would like to eat

The Robisons, we kinda missed the lights
in the background, but their cuteness makes
up for it! look at coles grin from ear to ear!
He was quite pleased with his sock gloves!
TOUCHDOWN!!
(that is what lexi is learning instead of "so big")
The Nielsens... i think those are ashleys
bedroom eyes?


On the trax, Lexi was bundled up with just about
anything and everything, she couldn't really put her
arms down. she wasn't such a fan of that!
And as you see she won once again and got
her top layer off and can turn her head
a couple more degrees, however she still can
not put her arms down!
Look at those cheeks on our bug!!!!

my little helper..
She sure loves Daddy

One Common Enemy

Bumpa was kind enough to put hooks
in his kitchen ceiling for the grandkids
to swing. And Lexi sure appreciates him for it!
Bumpa informed me yesterday that
the reason him and Lex get along so well
is because they have one common enemy...
ME!
Just testing out the swings durability,
she needs a taste of everything!

She got her gangster lean back on
to watch a movie! just call her
"L-Unit"
i debated putting this picture on here,
but it is so stinking cute that i just cropped it
and did it anyways! Lexi loves loves loves
her showers!! she gets in about every night
with one or the other of us, and still isn't sick of it!
I started putting her head under so that
later on in life she isn't scared of going under
water, and now as soon as she gets in
she puts her own head under, and then looks up

with a big smile proud of her accomplishment! And like i said she literally has to taste
EVERYTHING!

FOR TIME AND ALL ETERNITY

NOVEMBER 15, 2008
a great day for us winns! we were able
to be sealed in the Bountiful Temple
for time and all eternity!
It was a long day, but was amazing!
Lexi knew exactly what to do when she came
in the sealing room. Mommy was sure an emotional wreck!
Cody really liked that my dress had
a belt on it for my "leash"
Although everyone was doing their
best to get lexi's attention, she just
really wanted to show off her bubbles!
Kisses for our baby girl!

We'll work on Tyson's technique before
freddy comes!
Mom showing off her muscles in her
hard hat and safety goggles from Nate
to protect her from further pole accidents!
Happy Birthday Nana and Brookie. What
a fun bunch! The birthday girl, all the kids...
and tess.. haha.
King Size and Mini size
Lexi is very used to be the dominating
baby, usually she's squaking and ayla is
looking at her like she's crazy and eventually
crying for her mom to save her. When Ayla
does say something Lexi is so shocked, and
has no idea what to do. But Brooklyn was
quite loud too, and was ready to pounce.
It took some getting used to for lexi. But
did end up liking her friend very much.
Especially when brookie was pinned down in
a high chair, car seat or bouncer. And Brook
could sure get lexi laughing by shaking her
head "no" like crazy.
Presleigh and "Mnexi" were good friends too.
Once again just took some adjustment for
Lexi to get used to the noise change :)
What a big girl. She loves her teething biscuits,
Between that and her sippy cup she likes to
think that she's a big girl. Afterwards she wont take
her bottle for quite a while like she's to big for it.
Lexi loves to play with daddy's chin hair.
She even tickels it after she's fell asleep. Just security
that dad is still there without having to open her eyes.
