I realized that I haven't imported any of the video footage we took during Alexis' first year. So, I am going to start posting that footage in our new show: Alexis' World! Enjoy episode 1 that shows us getting ready to leave the hospital and Mommy changing her first dirty diaper!

Summer Fun!
Since getting out of school for the summer, we've been having a blast!
Alexis started Kindermusik classes on June 12. Mommy and Alexis learn new songs and dances as well as got some great new toys! Tim's brother, sister-in-law, niece, and nephew came to visit on June 19 and left this morning. While they stayed with Maw Maw and Paw Paw, we got to visit a lot. This was Alexis' first time meeting Uncle Daniel and cousin Alistair. She had so much fun. Her favorite night was when Uncle Daniel made yummy, thin crust pizza. Alexis ate five pieces! One of them even had anchovies and blue cheese (she ate two pieces of that kind)!
We also enjoyed our first real 4th of July celebration. Last year, Alexis did not watch the fireworks. We were afraid it would be too loud. This year, however, we all stayed up late and watched the fireworks at a friend's house! She really enjoyed them and wasn't scared at all! The next day, Alexis was an entrant in the Tiny Miss Firecracker pagent. She had a great time, but no crow. She really enjoyed the goodie bag she won though! We also went swimming and had dinner at a neighbor's house on the 4th. I love swimming! In fact, Alexis' swim lessons begin on July 20. She is enrolled in Water Babies 2 which just gets them used to and unafraid of the water. Mommy is looking forward to the two weeks of swimming!
Also, we are looking forward to a mini-vacation. We are heading to Tallahassee and Panama City to visit some family and friends. Mommy and Daddy are looking forward to this much more than Alexis. We haven't been out of town since August!
In addition to all of our summer fun, Alexis is growing and changing so quickly. She has learned many words and will often times repeat words that we say. Her new favorite characters are Elmo who she calls "Melmo" and Mickey Mouse who she calls "Meee Mou". She also attempted to say her own name this week! We are able to understand and communicate with her much more. She can not only say many words, but she points to objects and has been learning some sign language. She can ask for "more please" in sign language!
Our family life is so much fun! We just love to spend time playing with Alexis and she does at least one thing to make us crack up laughing and one thing to make us sigh in contentment each day. What else could we ask for?
