We have a talker!

Alexis is "talking" up a storm these days. She can say ba-ba, ma-ma, da-da, and pa-pa. She talks quite a bit when she's tired or hungry. In a meeting a work the other day when she was visiting, she kept saying ma ma over and over again. I finally decided to give my co-workers a break and left the meeting. I guess now it's only a matter of time before she starts talking back.

She is also working on her walking skills. She took her first two steps on my birthday (Oct. 12). Since then, she has been taking steps one or two at a time and falling to the ground of course. But, she is becoming more and more brave. We think that by Thanksgiving, she will be giving us a run for our money!

It's hard to believe that Alexis is almost 9 months old, but it's true. We are looking forward to the holiday season. Alexis is going to be a spider for Halloween. I'll be sure that I post pictures. We hope you are all doing well and hope to see you soon!

Welcome to my blog!

Well, thanks to Joyce's daughter, I have decided to start my own blog to keep everyone updated on my life as a mother. Alexis is changing and growing up each day. I love being her mommy and I want everyone to know about the accomplishments she is making! Keep tuned in to stay updated on our life!
