She's Back!!!

Alexa was in Utah for 2 weeks to visit her grandma. I missed her so much. It just isn't the same without her around. On her way back we met her and went up to Cedar Mountian for the weekend.

She had tons of fun at the parade and got soaked by the fire engine.

She caught the biggest fish with her Barbie fishing pole. (I couldn't get the picture to turn the right way)

I'm so LUCKY!!!

Driving back from Utah yesterday Alexa said, "Mom you're so luck." I said why and she replied, "because you have me." She is right. I am so lucky. She is getting so big.

While we were in Utah at the farm by Zion National Park she lost her first tooth. It has been wiggling around for about a month and then Thursday she did something to make it bleed and it was just hanging there. Saturday night she came running out with her tooth in hand saying sorry. She said the was just checking on it and it fell out. She put it under her pillow and the tooth fairy, Goosalina, came and brought her $5 (more then I would have given, but I only had a $20 and it was late at night out of town. Luckily Aunt Bridget has a $5). We have a tradition in our family that each person gets there very own tooth fairy. Those of us up at the farm spent all night trying to pick a name. Since the goose is the only animal left up there David came up with the name. She thinks she is so cool.

Everything is GREAT!!!

This blog is starting to look like every journal entry I have in my diary. They all start with, "I know it has been a long time, but....."

So here it goes. I know it has been a long time, but here is what has been going on in my life since I last wrote. A lot has changed. Luckily all of the new changes have been for the better. I have a new man in my life. I was really resistant at first, but over time(about a year) we became really good friends and then all of a sudden, here we are. It is great! He is great! His kids are great! Alexa is doing great! I couldn't ask for more.

Alexa turned 5 last month. I can't believe how big she is getting. Time is just flying by. I wish I could slow time down (although I am pretty excited for the fuure, so that might not be good to slow it down!). I want to enjoy every minute with her. She is just so funny and now she is getting older and so smart and even funnier. Here are some of her recent comments that had me cracking up.

-We were driving in the car and she was sick so she was half asleep and out of it, but I looked back in the rear view mirror and see her little head bobbing to the music with her eyes closed. Then she says, "Mom, I feel like this music is just a part of me. If it wasn't a boy singing, I would thing that I was doing the song." She does love music. She loves to dance and to sing and to make up her own songs.

-Her and I were watching tv the other day. We only get a couple chanels so for some reason we get the proactive commercial a lot. Alexa looked at me and says, "Hey mom, that's the stuff you have, but it doesn't work as good on you. It's ok, I still think you are pretty." Thanks kid. Luckily I know she really does think I am pretty, so I wont take it to harsh.

-Her other recent accomplishment was learning to blow a bubble. We spent all sunday morning last week learning how to blow bubbles with the pack of bubble gum someone gave her for her birthday. She is a fast learner.

In Trouble..

I have been so busy lately and have not been on the internet, but I keep getting in troule for not posting so here it goes. We had a great summer. Lots of fun trips. School is back in. We just finished homecoming week so I think that I have a few months where my life wont be so busy.

Alexa started pre-school. She loves it. We are in the new house, but there is still a lot of work to be done on it.

I have been keping a list of funny things Alexa has said lately so her are the more recent ones.

-My cell phone has been having problems lately. Anyone who is around me knows that I keep it in my bra a lot. Well my mom was asking me if it wasnt working because it got wet. I said no and Alexa piped in with "except for boob sweat."

-I have been going with a group of singles to Stoney's to go country line dancing. I was telling my mom how Thursday is ladies night and that is why we go because we get in free. Alexa asked, "what about boys in dresses?"

-"I think Heavenly Father laughs at me when I do funny things"

-Alexa told me I could be her side kick

-Alexa told my sister KT she wished she would move so she could be Will's wife.

HA HA... I love my life!!!!!

No More Waiting!!!

Well that's not totally true. Now I am waiting for Alexa to get home (she went to utah for one one, aka 11, day) and for all of my appliances to get here. I had to buy all new appliances and they were back ordered 3 weeks so I am waiting. Should be soon! I keep promising pictures. KT has better pictures on her camera, but here is what I have so far. It is a work in progress. These pictures are from a week or so ago. I will post more when it is all done.
