Halloween

Halloween was spent in Las Vegas with family. The girls were able to go to two trunk-or-treats (one with the Pisciotta family and one at Aunt Becky and Uncle Garth's ward) and then trick-or-treating with her cousins. Daddy was able to be there and take them to a trunk-or-treat. Although we were in Las Vegas for unhappy circumstances, we were able to make the most of it. The girls were also able to go over and see Grandma Beckstead all dressed up on one of her last lucid days. It was definitely a joy to be there with her and I wish I had a picture from that time.

Lexie at 6 Months

Lexie turned 6 months on October 28 while we were in Las Vegas. She had been scooting for a month and going from sitting to all fours and back again. Well now she is a crawler. A few days after she turned 6 months she was off. We have to chase her everywhere, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

A few things about Lexie at 6 months:
1. She loves to smile and play.
2. She is a very social baby and will crawl to most people, she especially loves kids.
3. She is starting food. It isn't her favorite thing, but we are working at it.
4. She is one tough cookie. She falls, pulls things on herself, hits herself, gets hurt by other kids and generally she keeps on smiling. I'm always waiting for the tears and they usually don't come.
5. She still is not a super sleeper. She sleeps in her bed for the first half of the night and then ends up with mommy & daddy.
6. She never stops moving! I mean never, not even to nurse. She has to be standing or wiggling or something. It is quite the site to see.

We love our sweet baby and all the loves she gives us. We love you Alexis!!!


The first meal. Rice cereal, yum!



Disney on Ice! She loved the first 15 minutes, then she was nuts.


Dinner, then a much needed bath. She is a messy eater and mommy is not super good at keeping her clean.

Showing her excitement for the first BYU game of the season.


Alexis LOVES Brooklyn!


Playing in the exer-saucer, and yup kissing the floor. Haha!


First trip to Downtown Disney


We love you baby!!!!
