"Now, Now, What about ME???" -Nathan

It's Lexi's birthday and when we get singing "Happy Birthday" to Lexi too many times we occasionally need to take a time-out and remember the ever important Nathan, by dedicating a few of the songs to him as well, so...Happy Birthday Nathan! ...
watch this one...

HOORAY: LEXI CAN WALK!!!

About one month ago Lexi was "walking" but with help...

Then this last Sunday, the 26th of Sept we caught the first video of Alexis walking alone!!! (she'd been doing it since about Thursday)

And here she is just this morning, walkin' around on her birthday!!! To me she just seems to small to be walking. She is the right age...she is just so stinkin' tiny.  17 lbs. was her measure at her doctor visit today, which puts Lexi in the 3rd percentile of average weight for her age.  And get this...not a meal goes by where she doesn't eat more than her big brother Nathan. Funny little girl!

Way to go ALEXIS!!!

Are you looking for a reason to smile?

Nathan and Lexi get along really well the majority of the time.  Mom and Dad are hired on as referees occasionally, but Mom's smile goes ear-to-ear in moments like this...

And yet another reason to smile...just watch our little princess practicing her manners, Lexi has learned to say "please" and "more" in sign language here is proof. Mom and Dad are very proud.
