All Dolled up..




Lexi looked so adorable in her Church Christmas outfit i had to take a picture. I can't believe how much she is growing up. From talking in full sentences, counting to ten, and even saying her ABC. She truly is the sweetest little girl and I am very grateful for her in my life!!

Its a ?!?!?!?!

So as most of you know we had our ultrasound appointment yesterday. We were so excited to finally know and plan for this baby. The baby is totally healthy, just measuring small, as did Lexi. They ended up changing my due date which stinks but all the matters it that the baby is healthy so if it needs to cook a little longer I'm okay with that. So i am due May 11th now not the 2nd. Now to the part everyone wants to know.. Its a boy!! Paul and I are super excited. Paul is excited to have a little buddy and is so cute about it. I guess I need to go buy some boy stuff EVERYTHING I have is VERY girly haha!

Whats your guess!?!?!?

Paul and I find out what we are having December 15th. We are so excited to finally know and finally start decorating :) This pregnancy we have no idea what we are having. With Lexi, Paul and I both knew/had a feeling we were having a girl pretty much from day one. All the dreams i had or baby book it was always girls or referred to my baby is a she. This one nothing, i had one dream but i had twins and one was a boy and the other a girl.. no help there.
If you ask Lexi is mom having a girl or a boy.. she says Girl, Sydnee a princess. So that's her guess.. Whats yours??? gIrL or bOy?!?!

Christmas time...

Every time we get in the car Lexi starts saying "MORE LIGHTS!!" She loves the Christmas lights and cant get enough of them. The neighbors had their tree up before thanksgiving and Lexi would sit at the window for hours saying Christmas tree. So, we couldn't wait long to put ours up. Lexi loved helping us decorate and loves to dance and sing to Christmas music. She is so excited about Christmas and Santa! Its cute how now shes finally getting it. I think this Christmas is going to be a blast!








I didn't take any pictures this year of thanksgiving and i got these few pictures quick before the battery died in my camera. I need to be better at the whole picture thing.

My sweet little girl...

Lately Lexi will kiss my tummy and say hi and sing songs to the baby. Today we were watching barney on my bed and she came over and put her ear to my tummy. My stomach growled and she goes.." Baby tooten!!" I thought i was going to die laughing. Lexi thought it was soo cool. ( yeah sad its my little girl that thinks thats sooo cool) After that she put her blanket on it and said mommy babys cold. I think she is going to be a HUGE help when we have this baby and maybe a little too much help. But Lexi is so cute about everything and cant wait to be a big sister!!

'sTeP bY sTeP'

On saturday my friend Ashlee and I went to the NKOTB concert! Honestly one of the best concerts Ive been too. Natasha Bedingfield and Lady Gaga opened up for them. We were on the floor row 48 and snuck up to row 20, which was good because we couldn't see much were we first were. They sang all their old school songs plus two new ones. WAY TO COME BACK NKOTB!!

WaSn'T rEaDy FoR tHiS!!

When we woke up this morning, Paul went to get Lexi a drink and came back amazed there was 6 inches of snow and it was still snowing hard. Before Paul went to work he shoveled the drive way and Lexi wanted to help so bad! Her gloves from last year don't even go on anymore but she insisted she go outside with her daddy. She did pretty good for awhile until she grabbed the snow. She started crying and came to the front door. I got her inside snuggled with her and made her hot chocolate ( which she loved) and watched Mickey Mouse club house.. What a fun morning!!







( Sorry its sideways i cant figure out how to switch it on a video)

HaPPy HaLLowEEn!!


Halloween was a busy day for us!! Lexi had a birthday party for Quinn to go to and then trick or treating!!! Lexi was the cutest little fairy ( well she called herself a butterfly!!). She was so excited to go Trick or Treating!! We went for an hour and a half total and she still didn't want to stop!! We would say want to go home and she would say "NO!". She had a little sugar rush and was up till 11 pm, but i guess that's the fun of Halloween right?!?!
Lexi and daddy trick or treating

Lexi and Quinn the Bat!!











On Thursday Amanda Melissa and I thought it would be cute to have all the grandkids put on their skeleton pjs for some pictures!!! It wasn't easy to get 5 kids to look at you or smile or even care about taking pictures, but we did end up getting a few cute ones though!!




Hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!!

The cake











So i have tons of pictures from Lexis two parties on her birthday. So i thought i would do a few posts. I'll start with the cake. The first time i've made cake from scratch, made fondant, and icing from scratch too. Lets just say it may be my first and only time doing this. I get bored of doing stuff after awhile and lets just say after the 4th hour i was ready to quit. I had to make two batches of cakes, two things of fondant and it just took way longer than i thought. I started making the cakes at 10:30am and finally finished the whole thing at 5:30 pm. Its a good thing it turned out soo cute and good, or i might have cried.

Can you believe?!?!?!

October 24th is quickly approaching AGAIN!!! My sweet Lil peanut will be 2! It really is going to be a sad day i think for me. Its crazy how fast they grow up. It feels like i just had her 1st birthday. Anyways, we decided to get her pictures done. Amanda ( my sister in law) took her pictures and bless her heart stuck in there while Lexi cried, pitched a fit, and wanted nothing to do with the pictures. She really did a great job and I'm SO happy with the out come of what was supposed to be a fun day ended up being more work then fun. Lets just say its a good thing for barney songs, that seemed to be the only way to get her to smile. Here are a few of the like 50 pictures i love that she took.




Lexi looks like she could be 5 in the pictures, all grown up. We truly have been blessed to have such a sweet loving girl in our family.

Scarecrow Festival

Yesterday we went to Thanksgiving Point for there scarecrow festival. There was so much to do and we were actually there for 4 hours. Lexi had a blast and didn't want to leave. Its so fun to have all this so close to our house.
Here is Lexi dancing to the band playing in the background.
Lexi and Daddy petting the horse. I couldn't handle the smell.
Lexi being adorable on the hayride. But she got scared at the end when the headless horseman chased us!!
VROOM VROOM.. pedal race cars!!
Lexi's first pony ride.. She LOVED it and had the biggest cheese the whole time. I think she has a new favorite thing to do. I'm thinking next year we will make a few more trips over to thanksgiving point so she can ride the ponies.
