Christmas Morning

Lexi headed down the hall with her flashlight to see what Santa brought. She was sooo tired but wanted to be awake!

Looks like Lexi was a real good girl!

Morning, Terrell!

Making sure her baby gets some breakfast

New paper cutter! Thanks, Terrell!!!

Opening presents

I bought this for him in the summertime and it took all I had to save it until Christmas!!!

Lexi loved opening presents! She was always climbing under the tree to find more to open!

Daddy got her a boa!

Lexi got a dress and had to put it on RIGHT away. She even wore it to church!

Christmas Crafts

On Christmas Eve, we made some cute Christmas crafts. We put cotton balls on Santa's beard(s) and Santa's hat(s)! Lexi thought it was the best. She kept getting glue on her hands and the cotton balls would stick to her and then she'd shake her hand trying to get it off! So funny! As soon as she got the hang of it, she just started scooping handfuls of cotton balls off the counter and shoving them on her crafts. They turned out pretty cute!

Lexi + Santa = BFF

On Christmas Eve Day we took Lexi to see Santa at the University Mall. She was SO excited. Actually I think that's an understatement. She was chanting his name the whole way to the mall and clapping her hands enthusiastically. When we got there, they wouldn't let us take any personal pictures (LAME!) around Santa, but I got some fun ones of her in line! She kept yelling Santa!!!!!!!! while we were in line, and dancing around and around. She kept trying to skip ahead in line, but we'd have to keep pulling her back so she could wait her turn. When it was her turn, she ran right up to him, arms open wide and jumped on his lap, giving him a big hug. She then commenced telling him about all the pretty decorations in the mall. I don't think he got a word in except the Merry Christmas at the end!

Our sneaky picture of Santa we took with our OWN camera! HA!

Peeking thru the trees to try and see Santa

Our Family - Lexi is pointing towards Santa...

She just wanted to be put down so she could dance!

We stuck her on one of the pillars in the fence and she wasn't so sure about that!

Dancin' to the Christmas beat!

"SANTA!!!"

Oh dear, Lexi! You are too silly for your own good!

I let Lexi run around in her diaper for a few minutes the other day because our apartment was so hot, and she ran into her room, grabbed the little tea party sunhat and put it on. She said "CUUUUTE!" 

She then played a little peek-a-boo with me by tipping her hat over her eyes and sneakily peeking out from underneath it! I made Terrell grab the camera to snap a few pictures!

Oh dear, Lexi! You are too silly for your own good!
