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
