Finally there is one good thing about January. Lexi's birthday! It's crazy to think that my baby is "1" already and that she is slowly growing out of the baby stage. She can walk across the room but is still wobbly so she mostly crawls still. She laughs like crazy though when she does walk. This picture totally describes Lexi. Partial to food. She gets upset and emotional about it. She never even touched the cake. Just looked at it and screamed. She is definitely a challenge in the food department. To celebrate her big day we went to Jump On It. Actually we went for us. Lexi not so much.
I am obsessed with Lexi. There is just something about her, a bond we share and I just love her to pieces! I call her my miracle baby. When she was born everything fell into place and my world just got better. She has brought TJ and I closer together and she has made our family more complete (notice I said "more" complete, meaning there is room for more!) She may not sleep or eat for that matter but she is my doll and she loves to snuggle and if anyone tries to take her place on my shoulder or my lap or in my arms (even TJ) she gets very defensive and pushes and hits and cries until she has her spot back. She loves to follow her sisters around if she hears the bath water running she'll cry until she gets put in. I'm having a hard time pulling the plug on her..I admit I am still nursing her. It's only during the night but still I've got to stop! Maybe if she would just sleep thru the night already and not make me have her cry it out or if I wasn't so tired that I just nurse her so I can get back to sleeping. It's sad that I won't be "Physically" needed by her. That part of my mothering is over...always a sad day.
