Happy 2nd Birthday Alexis!

Happy Birthday, Girlfriend!

Grandpa just sent me this photo of our beautiful little niece who turns TWO today! I can hardly believe it. When we saw her last, she was six months younger, but wow, what a difference those months can make! She doesn't look like a baby anymore...She looks so tall and grown up! I suppose this is the point where she starts entering the "terrible twos" but I don't really know if that is a real stage kids go through or just myth. I DO know that my sister has mentioned Lexi's occasional little attitude, but she's bound to have a little sass with her sweetness, right? (I mean, if she is going to be anything like her mama! LOL.)

January 2012 - The last time we saw her!

It is really fun to watch her change as she grows knowing that she is only one year ahead of Raine. It is like a little preview of what I can expect! (I also think she is old enough that I can stop referring to her as "The Nef's Lil Sis.") We are hoping to Skype with the family tonight and see her and Logan. We don't do it nearly enough. Rachel and I have this fabulous technology so that we can see each other's kids whenever we want despite the fact that we live so far apart, and we rarely use it! I guess we are a LITTLE preoccupied though with our kids, households, jobs, etc. So I am very much looking forward to our next reunion in October. Can't wait to give this little girl a hug. Also in the meantime, we shipped a present for her party on Saturday. AND HOW MUCH FUN IS IT TO SHOP FOR A LITTLE GIRL. ;)
