car seat practice

well anyone who knows lexi knows she HATES her

carseat! all she does is scream...and doesn't give up til

she's out, it doesn't matter if its a couple hours, she'll keep going.

she does however take a break for a few seconds to breathe sometimes,

or to choke because she isn't swallowing while screaming. so

cody has taken away all birthday's until she's five unless she

stops, so for her sake we have "carseat practice" everyday!

slowly but surely i think we're making improvement.

( and yes she does have a mohawk in these pictures,

cody likes to do her hair!)

also we have to practice "lexi time" because she thinks

she always needs to be held!! i get more done during the day

when she's awake instead of asleep because she will not stay

asleep if i set her down! talk about spoiled haha! but as you

can see in the pictures she is a happy baby still, and

loves being talked to, she will just smile and talk back for hours!

splish splash, takin a bath

our little lexi's favorite time of day is 9 pm

because she knows it means bathtime,

she would stay in the bath for hours if

we would let her!

Family Pictures

thanks to erik we got pictures without lexi crying,

or us talking to her.

and that she doesn't really care?
