Butter and Pancakes are Making Us Fatter :)

I am back!! Ok, so I needed a few days to recover from being sick, but now I'm back!! Let's see... what has happened this past week??

Well, I should definitely go ahead and thank Brandon for doing absolutely everything for me and Lexi this past week. I was completely useless, and he really saved the day by taking care of both his girls. I have no clue what we would have done without him. He was our hero!

Lexi has really come into her own lately. Her little personality is developing even more than before. She loves to make herself and others laugh. Just this morning I went to get her out of the car at school. She had her legs propped up on the sides of the bar of her carseat in a V shape. She was holding on with her hands to the middle of the bar and attempting to pull herself over it. When she realized I was watching her, she burst out laughing. She knew she was totally busted!

Her legs are getting stronger by the day. Demita makes her walk everywhere at school (with help of course). I imagine it really shouldn't be long now before she is walking everywhere! (I can't even believe I am writing these words! WOW!)

Lexi also has picked up a new nickname- Butterball! She is FINALLY starting to fatten up some!! She is still a little tiny thing, but slowly she has gained some weight! This most likely has a lot to do with the fact that she is completely and totally obsessed with buttered pancakes and eats them at least twice a day! Being her mom, I always try to slip a few blueberries or strawberries in with the pancakes. I can't imagine butter and pancakes will fill all of her nutritional needs. I guess I should just be thankful that she is finally getting fatter! :)

Hope everyone has a great day! LOL- the wrong way. (a joke for Mom...)
