What Sawyer's thinking...

"I wanna eat Oatmeal for breakfast every morning"


"I wanna puppy" (she got her puppy out of her room and brought her into the kitchen, after she saw puppies on TV)



"I wanna go outside" (she got the shoes and jacket out by herself, and put the bow on by herself)


"I wanna clean like Mommy"


"I wanna look like Mommy"

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day sweet readers! We have had a great day and night...filled with lots of sweets! We started our day off with chocolate chip pancakes, Sawyer loved them. Then she had some dark chocolate after lunch which she couldn't get enough of.

Sawyer has been on the cranky side lately. She has a cold with a runny nose and slight cough and she is teething...4 teeth in the making! Thankfully, today wasn't too cold out so we went on walk and she was loving being outside again. We sat on the patio and watching the world go by. We live across a Fire hose repair place, so they were working on a firetruck and Sawyer had a blast watching them.

Sawyer has been eating her daddy up. At night she only wants to read books with daddy and she wants daddy to come and play in her kitchen, etc...It warms my heart and I know Clint is loving it! Speaking of daddy, here are some pictures of my sweeties:






Here are a few pictures of Sawyer cleaning...one of her favorite things to do, hopefully this will continue the older she gets...maybe she got her Grammy's OCD =D






Sawyer fell down today while playing outside, I could tell it really hurt. She scraped her finger. She did awesome while I was cleaning it and loved having a band aid on. You will also see her watching her "Baby Praise" DVD from her Susu:








It was a relaxing, fun day filled with lots of LOVE. I am so blessed. But I missed all my Valentines in Kentucky!! It's getting harder and harder being away from "home". I miss you all and think about you so much...

Sending lots of love from Philly!!!!

Love, Alex

Just like Sisters

We had a little playdate with Jane yesterday. These girls are so sweet together...most of the time! =D

I am so thankful that Sawyer has a friend like Jane. Here are some adorable pictures of the girls playing:

Dixon Family Visit

Well, my parents and sister left today. Sawyer and I were really sad...she shed a few tears! We had a blast. She remembered them for sure, it was precious. And every morning when she would see them again her face would light up and she would get the biggest smile. Thank you Mom, Dad, and Bri for making the drive up here and loving on us for the weekend. We already miss you! =D

They brought up our Christmas presents and my mom found the kitchen I played with when I was little. My mom fixed it up a little and Sawyer is having a blast playing with it. Here are a few pics of her kitchen. I took pictures of her playing with it but she was naked...so I will have to take a few more with her clothes on





One day we took Sawyer to my parents hotel and she experienced her first pool and hot tub. She didn't like the pool at first, but she really warmed up to the hot tub. She looks so big to me int these pictures.







On another afternoon Sawyer cuddled up with Grammy and they watched "Toy Story 3" It was so sweet watching how excited she was to watch the movie with her Grammy.




Here are a couple of other random pictures






My mom bought Sawyer and potty seat and she loves to sit on it. No pee pee or poo poo yet, but hopefully soon. She is starting to tell me when she poops and pees and she doesn't like her diaper to be dirty. I think those are all good signs. HOwever, I know she is young to I am going to take my time.



And tonight, Clint made Sawyer a fort in the Family Room...I think she liked it =D

For Aunt Bri

Sawyer has a special place in her heart for her Aunt Bri! Every time I say "Aunt Bri", Sawyers face lights up and she usually puts her hand to her head and pretends she is talking on the phone with her. My parents and sister, Aunt Bri, are coming up in a few days. Sawyer can't wait to love on them and share some toys with her Aunt Bri. Here are a few pictures of them over Christmas. Can't wait to see their friendship grow over the years =D Sawyer doesn't know it yet, but she is very lucky to have such a wonderful Aunt!

Chatter box

We have a little chatter box on our hands. She is non stop babble these days. She will try and say anything you say. Here is a little list of what we can understand, these words she says on her own without me asking her to say them:

-hot
-stop
-doggy
-bible (while she holds her bible)
-mommy
-daddy
-hi dada
-bye bye dada
-hi aunt Bri
-ra ra ( Susus dog)
-no no no
-yes
-uh oh
-silly
-book
-wa wa (water)
-baba (bottle)
-silly
-Jane
-OO (Baby Owen)
-bir (bird)
-nigh nigh ( night night )

Okay that's all I can think of right now :)
