3 Years Old














Today was my little girls birthday and I can't believe she turned 3! I don't know where the time goes. Sometimes it feels like she was born just yesterday and sometimes it feels like she's been here forever. We love her so much and she brings so much joy to our family. She was born at 33 weeks and 4 days old weighing a wopping 3lbs 3.9 ounces. She is such a miracle. Besides arriving so early she has been in picture perfect health with the exception of only being sick one day in her life. When I think about all the bad things that can happen to premies I feel so blessed that she has had her health. She is the sweetest little girl anyone will ever meet although now that we are in the terrible 3's which are different than the terrible 2's you couldn't ask for a better child. Anyone that has been around her can witness to that. I love you Lexi and am so glad you chose me to be your mother. We started her birthday yesterday with a friend party at Chuckie Cheese. Today we went to Church and than celebrated the rest of her birthday going on rides and go karts. My mom flew into town to spend Lexi's birthday with us which has been awesome. Here are a few of the many pics over the past 3 years and some over the past 2 days.
