6 months old

Alexis with her "remote" or "phone"! Her latest passion is grabbing the remote controls for the television. So anytime she grabs for the remote we give her this phone and so far it is working. I am not sure in a month or two if it will still do the trick, as one of my friends warns me "Wait, 'till she looks to see if the channel changes on the t.v. when she pushes the buttons".
Wow - where have the last 6 months gone?!?!? Middle of the night feedings, smiles, giggles, many stroller rides, trips to the park, moments of pure love, the list goes on and on. We've been through a lot in the last 15 months. As Rick and I look back - we remember how we waited so anxiously for Lexi's arrival. When she finally decided to meet us and to see what the world was like we were handed a true miracle from God. Alexis showed us more strength, hope, and faith in several days than most grown adults have in a lifetime. The one thing they never taught us in our prenatal classes or that no one advised us of was how much love a small child can bring into your life. Alexis, we are so blessed to be your parents, so lucky to get to spend everyday with you, and we look forward to many wonderful, fun times ahead! We love you little sweet pea, Mommy and Daddy.
