Pictures with Santa

Dear Lexi,
We recently went to the Mall to get pictures of Santa. Mommy was kind of worried about whether or not you would like him, but you just LOVED Santa. You were so fascinated by him, we had to almost yell to get your attention focused on the camera. It was such a great experience. I hope Santa understands baby language and can bring you everything you want this Christmas.




I LOVE YOU!!
Love,
Mommy

Thanksgiving at Myrtle Beach!

Dear Lexi,
For Thanksgiving we went with the Matteson family to Myrtle Beach. A majority of your cousins were there. It was your first time on the beach and your first time on an airplane. You actually did really well on the airplane. You cried for a little bit, but mainly because Mommy was so stressed about making you sure you were comfortable. You fell asleep and took a short little nap. It would have been longer, but Mommy really had to pee. You woke up when I passed you to Daddy. You were so good during the whole flight though. The lady next to us loved you and played with you a ton.
When we got to the beach, you tried to eat sand. Daddy was so protective of you though. He wouldn't let you get it anywhere near your mouth. As soon as it was on your hands he picked you up and poured water on your hands to rinse them off. He is such a good daddy!!





We went to the aquarium. You really enjoyed looking at all of the fish. Your favorite part was when we were in a tunnel completely surrounded by water. It was so fun to see your little face light up so bright.



On the flight home, you were amazing. You sat on Mommy's lap playing with the fold down tray and then just passed out. You slept until we landed. It was so much fun being able to spend some time away from Texas.
I love you Lexi,
Love Mommy!
