Getting so big!

So cute!


Lexi looking like a big girl! 

Alexis is getting so big! We went to the doctor yesterday and she is quite the little chunker. She weighs 17 1/2 pounds and is in the 80th percentile. We knew she was getting heavy! She is only in the 30th percentile for her height too, so basically she could be an Umpa-Lumpa (short and plump). Hopefully she will grow out of that soon! The doctor said she looks great and is very healthy. She did have to have her 6 month shots though and that wasn't much fun. She screamed of course but I did much better. I was able to hold her hands and not get emotional at all. I think I am making good progress with that. It was nice to have Jaron there too! He always tries to make it to all of Lexi's appointments, which I love. He is such a good dad! Lexi also has two little teeth. We have tried to get pictures but she always wants to lick us when we try! The doctor also told us she can have water, which she loves! We have tried to feed it to her in a bottle but she won't drink it. However if we put it in a sippy cup, she will guzzle it down. We couldn't get it away from her in the above pic. She had such a strong grip! She totally takes after her mom though because for any of you that know me, I can drink A LOT of H2O!
