My 10 month old princess
Two more months and our little girl will be one year! She has grown up a lot this last month. Just earlier, I was telling Broc she has learned a lot this last month..and even two weeks. She learned to wave and can say "hi" some times. She loves to clap but loves when she can clap your hands. She cracks up at patty cake, especially when I say, " and toss it in the over for Lexi and me!" She knows right when its coming! Lexi always calms down when I sing to her. Right now my favorite song to sing to her is You are My Sunshine. Last night she feel asleep with me singing to her. I love raising this little girl.
Lexi loves to eat anything you give her. Recently I have learned to amazing wonders of how tender potatoes and carrots get in the crock pot. Needless to say, she will be having potatoes, carrots,sweet potatoes, apples and anything else I can throw in there for a snack! Its way better than the baby puff snacks she always has!
She is all over the place. She takes a couple steps here and there when I have her walk to me. She runs everywhere when she is in her walker or has something to hold on to. She is all smiles and has a cheeser face. I really need to get a photo of that. Lexi has started to realize that I am "mama" and when I walk away, put her in her crib, or in her car seat and shut the door she crys..." mama mama mama."
Sad, but oh so adorable too. She is having a hard time sleeping this past month. She always wakes up and wont go back to sleep unless she is in our bed. I'm really wanting to break this! Well, I think that's enough up date for now! She is a blessing! We love her to death! She is upgrading to a new carseat this week! Oh how I will miss the days when I could leave her in her car seat when she falls asleep and just bring it in the door!..I will miss that!

Summer update
I feel like it has been a while since I have posted on here...besides updates about Lexi. She really is our life! Well, lets see what has happened?
On June 8 it was my birthday. I had a great birthday! I went and got a pedicure which Broc got me and then came home and we watched part one of Breaking Bad which he also got me. Needless to say it was perfect. That night we went to dinner with the family. Just a relaxing dinner at Red Robin.
Wait, that's a lie. Out to dinner with a 9 month old is never relaxing. She trying to reach my lap top as a type. I'm playing keep away with a 9 month old. That's what my life has come to. Food, drinks, snacks, cell phones, anything that's in my hand.
After dinner, we came back to our house and played games. It was a good birthday! 22!
There has been a scavenger hunt around town that was put on by The Summit Athletic Club. The reward was $5,000. Brittany (Broc's sister) went looking quite a bit for it! Unfortunately , we didn't find it. We were so disappointed.
Broc's sister and her family moved back down to St George in May. We are all happy about that. We are able to see Madden (18 months) and Chloe (3.5 years) almost every day! I have been watching them some days while Britt and James go to work and it is so much fun! Great birth control :) They are so much fun to play with, and Lexi stays entertained as well. I can already tell she has learned things from them!... is that good or bad? :)
I think that is about it for now. July will be a busy month. We have Broc's aunt and her family (3 kids and a husband) coming to stay with us.. (I think)
I will be going to Kentucky for two weeks with Lexi which I am so excited about!
I don't think much will happened until then! I'm trying to keep busy and find things to do!

8 Months
Has it really been that long? I love this learning stage that Lexi is in. Although it can cause her to be pretty curious and get into alot of things, it's adorable!
It's amazing how much a baby can change in just a month. Some things that have come up in the last month are:
-Lexi officially hates having her diaper changed
-I'm not able to just lay her down for bed anymore. She screams and climbs all over her crib.
-She has developed a new and annoying attitude
-but now she lays and falls asleep on your chest, which makes up for the attitude! M
-Shes crawling and standing up
-She chases Tito
I have attached a few photos of Lex that I have on my phone..because I'm blogging from my phone in my warm bed as every one sleeps! How nice! Well, happy 8 months to our little lady! It sure is a blessing and privilege to be your mommy and daddy!

Mommy Rant
So I know it's 1:12am and I should really be sleeping so I'm not a cranky mom in the morning, but after everyone else asleep is my time. It's the time I finally get to roll over in bed and sink deep into my phone. Mostly I look at Instagram and PIntrest. Sometimes I spend a little too much time on Facebook and twitter. To me, this is my most relaxing time. It gives me time to think. Some things that crossed my mind today happened to be:
- being a mom you usually eat your food cold
-being a mom you usually always have to share your food. (Yes, even with an eight month old)
-being a mom your usually the first one to wake up and the last one to bed
-being a mom you spend more time in Walmart just so you can contain your child in a shopping cart and not chase them around the house
And finally
-being a mom is amazing. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I really try to be the best mother to Lexi that I can. I think I'm doing a pretty good job :)
Okay, I think my mommy rant is over. I just wanted to write a few things down to remember!
