Lexi Turns 7!

Our first born is 7 years old now!

At age 7, Lexi likes:

* Music- her favorite song is still "Beautiful Life" by Ace of Base. But she's getting to that stage where she's into the teeny boppers like Miley Cirus and Justin Bieber.



*Dance- she just finished a modern dance class and will be taking ballet again in the fall.


*Tending to Reese- Lex is incredibly helpful in the mornings when I'm trying to get everyone ready. She holds Reese when she's fussing.




*Art- we got her a whole box of paper from Costco so she can draw all she wants without stealing all my printer paper. :) Her art teacher at school kept her last painting for the school art show.




*Nature- she's always wanting to go hiking with Benj and when she prays she always mentions how grateful she is for nature.




*School- this past year she was always bored on track breaks. Next summer will be a long one for her now that schools are all going 9 month!





She is still terrified of riding her bike by herself, but maybe 7 is the age she will overcome that hurdle. We are so glad Lexi is part of our family. I can still see her as a baby, especially when I look at Reese, those two are one in the same in looks. We love you Lexi Pea!

I've seen that cake on Betty Crocker--great job! Hope her day was great. And seriously where does the time go with these kids? I definitely still look and see those babies (tear).
