Oh little Lexi girl you are not a baby anymore, today you are officially half way to Two! Mommy and Daddy can not believe how quickly the time has gone. I feel so blessed that I have been fortunate enough to be with you every day, it has been such a dream come true for me to watch you grow into the beautiful little lady you are. We have been soaking up the summer rays with our fun playgroup, you have made so many cute friends and love to play, run and jump and swing! We have gone to lunch at the park, splash pads, pool with friends, trips to Utah and Nampa to visit our family and spent lots of quality time together as a family. You love to talk, which is no surprise to us because you have been jabbering in your own way since 3 months. Grandma Pope loves to share the memory of you jabbering under a blanket while I nursed you before Daddy gave you your blessing. It makes me laugh thinking back to our tiny baby girl "talking" at such a young age. We love hearing you say new things everyday, especially your cute little voice as you talk more and more daily. You love to pull out books with us and point to the various animals and make the noises and sounds they make. Mostly you say woof because you think everything makes that sounds haha but you've gotten really good at moo, quack and occasionally meow. You love to color, we got you your own box of crayons and you love to scribble on the coloring book, but mostly you enjoy scattering the crayons or tossing them in the air. You like playing with balls, cars, chunky puzzles, play kitchens and food and the toy vacuum grandpa and grandma Pope bought you. Any chance you get you like to be outside, playing with bubbles, sidewalk chalk, swinging or playing by our apartment complex mailboxes. We are hardly ever indoors which is nice but also hot, but we usually cool down by enjoying a Popsicle which you LOVE! 18 months means you will attend Nursery at church, we've brought you a couple of times before and you don't like it when we aren't there but I know after some time you will love it. Fortunately some of your friends from our playgroup are in our ward so you've been able to play with Parker, Emmy and Brynn. You are 21 pounds, 29.4 inches and you have more hair than I know what to do with. :) You are wearing size 12-18 month clothing but are starting to grow out of most 12 month sizes. You sleep through the night about 10-12 hours with one nap in the afternoon. We sure love you Lexi and are so lucky you picked us to be your parents. We couldn't imagine our life without you!
