Alexis-6 Months

Alexis turned 6 months at the beginnig of the month and I can't believe how much she's grown and changed. She has finally settled into a nice routine, which keeps me homebound more often than I would like, but I am okay with that:) Having her happy is much more important than running around like crazy!! It's kind of funny because I REALLY don't go anywhere during the day, which is quite the opposite of what I was like with Jacks and Mickey. I'm sure once she gets older it will change, but for now we are quite enjoying our home and our little neighborhood:) She's also started full on crawling!! No more shooting forward like she was doing in the prior post I put up. She's moving those little arms and legs in sync now. Her favorite spot...THE DOG BED!! YUCK!! I can't seem to keep her away though. Thankfully Loki is a wonderful dog and doesn't get bothered by her invading his space. In fact more often than not he actually walks away when he sees her coming towards him!! I guess I'm going to be washing that dog bed more often now! She's also started eating baby food and really well at that. This comes as a shock to both Jared and I seeing as that Jacks and Mickey really were not fans of the stuff. But she gobbles it right up and has pretty much enjoyed everything I've given her.

Below is a gorgeous storyboard our friend Natalie made up of recent pics she took of her. I love it! And all the expressions you see there are pretty much Alexis day in and day out. She is really a very happy baby. We love her to bits!
