Funny Story

So today as we are running around town Alexis starts copying everything Natalie was saying so Natalie called her a copycat. Alexis then said "I not copycat." So Natalie then said "OK then you're an echo." Alexis responds with "I not echo!" We then all start teasing her calling her either a copycat or an echo. And each time she responds with "I not copycat/echo!" Peter eventually says, "Ok you're an Alexis," to which she responds "I not Alexis." So I ask her if she's not an Alexis, then what is she? She answers, "Monster! Hahahaha!" She has such the sense of humor!

We Have a Graduate

Today Natalie graduated from pre-school! We woke up and curled her hair. Isn't she beautiful?!?

We were all excited and happy for her! OK off topic a little bit here, but I have two gorgeous girls! I know, I know, all mom's say that right? But I tried looking at them objectively (impossible for me to do) and they really are beautiful! Now back to the topic at hand....

We all got to go to school with her today and got to participate in all the fun activities! Like coloring whales with chalk. Alexis and Natalie had a blast coloring with each other! You'd think they've never colored before.

Alexis got to sit with Naatlie during their circle time. I'm blessed to have two girls that absolutely love and adore each other! I thought that it was such a sweet thing that Natalie had her arm around her sister!



They made little diplomas for all the kids and held an actual ceremony for them. This, obviously, is Natalie getting her diploma.

Natalie with her teachers Teacher Molly and Teacher Becky. Two of the greatest ladies you'll ever meet!

Birthday Time!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEXIS!!!
We love you lots!

This is a picture of Alexis two years ago. She was so tiny.


This is a picture of Alexis today (OK Saturday, but close enough!) It's hard for me to believe that so much time has gone by already and accept that she's no longer a baby. She's officially a toddler (age wise that is. She's been 'toddling' around for awhile now). Sigh....

This weekend we had a couple of friends, both of the tall and short variety, over for a birthday bbq. Alexis had a lot of fun playing with the kids that came and we had fun visiting with the adults. All in all, it was a very fun day! Be sure to check out the birthday slide show above!
