General Updates...

Lexi: Sweet little Lexi turned 1 1/2 last Friday! She's getting so big and is still just as sweet as she ever was, if not sweeter. She is the sunshine of our lives. Lexi wakes up in the morning with a big smile and is always ready and eager to start her day (even if it is at 4am!). Lexi's hair is really starting to grow now and I am able to put little pony tails in. She looks so cute! I took some pictures, but they aren't that great so I am waiting to take some more soon. That's if she will keep the pony tails in! Before, she never really had anything in her hair to play with so the pony tail thing is new to her and very interesting!

Asa: Asa is doing FANTASTIC at potty training! For the last week or so, he has been able to go all day with just underwear on. No pull-ups!!! Yeah! This is very exciting for all of us. He has a few accidents here and there, but overall he is doing really great! Most of the time we have to take him in to the bathroom to go potty, but occasionally he will tell us that he needs to go.

Both Asa and Lexi got some new summer clothes this past weekend and we are really excited to have them start wearing them.

Last weekend was really fun for all of us. Especially dinner on Sunday night. John lit up the BBQ and cooked up a fantastic steak (Asa calls it "fire steak") for all of us. We opened up the house, turned on the radio and let the kids play in the backyard while the steak was cooking. We decided since the weather was so great that we would move the table Gampa made us outside and enjoy dinner in the backyard! It was so nice! Of course, I think the kids were to interested and distracted with all the toys in the backyard because we could only get them to sit at the table for a few minutes before they were up and moving again. But John and I got to eat and enjoy the weather and just watching the kids play.

St. Patricks Day, John's Birthday and Easter are just around the corner, and then comes Asa's 3rd Birthday on May 22nd! Where did the last 3 years go?
