WISH WE WERE THERE.......

IF THERE EVER WAS A GIRL THAT LOVED BABIES....REAL ONES AND DOLLS...IT WOULD BE ALEXIS.  ONE OF THE MANY WAYS SHE REMINDS ME OF MYSELF AS A CHILD!  I LOVE THOSE CHEEKS!

....AND ALWAYS TO BE A PART OF THE PARTY....SHE WASN'T VERY OLD IN THIS PICTURE BUT SHE WAS INTO EVERYTHING THAT WAS GOING ON.......

ALEXIS LOVES PRESENTS.....AND SHE IS SO FUN TO WATCH BECAUSE SHE GETS SO EXCITED ABOUT THEM.  WE WERE SO GRATEFUL THAT TASHA AND JUSTIN LET THEM OPEN A COUPLE OF CHRISTMAS PRESENTS WHILE WE WERE THERE AND ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WAS SEEING THE EXCITEMENT IN ALEXIS.  SHE IS JUST SO MUCH FUN!

SPLISH SPLASH...THIS LITTLE GIRL IS A GREAT SWIMMER.  WE LOVE TO SEE HER SWIM WHEN THEY COME TO BEAVER OR IF WE STAY IN A MOTEL WITH A POOL!

LIKE ME....PURPLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN HER FAVORITE COLOR.  SHE LOVES EVERYTHING COLORFUL....BUT PURPLE IS THE BEST.  SHE LOVES IT WHEN PURPLE PEEPS COME OUT AT EASTER TIME.  I LOVE PURPLE PEEPS TOO!  WHENEVER I SEE THEM I THINK OF HER!

SHE HAS A NATURAL MOTHERLY INSTINCT ABOUT HER....MAYBE THAT IS THE REASON SHE LOVES DOLLS AND BABIES SO MUCH....BUT SHE IS ALSO GOOD TO LOOK OUT FOR ANYONE (AND HOME OR ANYPLACE) THAT SHE THINKS NEEDS HELP.  I LOVE THIS ABOUT HER.  SHE IS VERY CHRISTLIKE!

POINT PROVEN.....LOOK AT HER WITH ELLIE.  THEY ARE ADORABLE TOGETHER.....

.....AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELISE IS IN THIS PICTURE BUT ALEXIS CIRCLE OF LITTLE GIRLS TO "MOTHER" HAS INCREASED AND SHE DOES SUCH A GREAT JOB (AND ENJOYS EVERY MINUTE).

LIKE ME........ALEXIS LOVES DANCE AND SHE DANCES WITH OLDER GIRLS.  SHE TAKES TAP, JAZZ, AND BALLET (JUST LIKE I TAUGHT).  SHE WAS SURPRISED WHEN I COULD TELL HER THE NAMES OF THE STEPS SHE HAD BEEN DOING AFTER WATCHING HER IN A CLASS AND THEN WE HAD FUN DOING THOSE STEPS TOGETHER.  ALTHOUGH SHE IS THE YOUNGEST IN HER GROUP....SHE IS THE BEST.  I LOVE IT THAT AT THE END OF HER DANCE, SHE IS IN THE MIDDLE LOOKING FORWARD AND EVERYONE ELSE IS LOOKING AT HER.  I THINK SHE LOVES IT TOO!  THIS IS HER CHANCE TO SHINE AND SHE GLOWS.
I LOVE TO WATCH ALEXIS AT SCHOOL AND IN PRIMARY.  SHE SEEKS ANYONE THAT IS SITTING OR PLAYING ALONE AND BEFRIENDS THEM.  THIS THRILLS ME.
ALEXIS IS VERY OBEDIENT ABOUT DOING HER CHORES AT HOME AND LIKES TO KEEP HER THINGS ORGANIZED.  
SHE HAD HER OWN TASTE.....AND EVEN THOUGH SHE AND ABIGAIL SHARE A ROOM....IT LOOKS SO CUTE TO SEE EACH OF THEIR STYLES AND LOVES COME THROUGH.  
IN MANY WAYS SHE IS LIKE TASHA AND ABIGAIL.  SHE LOVES TO DECORATE, ORGANIZE, AND SHE LOVES CLOTHES AND ESPECIALLY JEW! ELRY.  MOST OF THE TIME WHEN I COMPLIMENT HER ON HER JEWELRY SHE TELLS ME THAT SHE BORROWED IT FROM HER MOM.  THEY BOTH LIKE BOLD COLORS.
SHE ALSO LOVES TO HELP IN THE KITCHEN AND IS DOING A GREAT JOB IN LEARNING ALL OF THE THINGS SHE WILL NEED TO KNOW IN HER LIFE.  SHE IS A GREAT STUDENT.....BUT I THINK THE THING I LOVE MOST IS THE WAY SHE LOOKS OUT FOR EVERYONE.
WE LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK....AGAIN AND AGAIN!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY OUR SWEET PURPLE PRINCESS.  WE HOPE YOUR DAY IS THE BEST!!!
