Rex Allen,
You turned 6 months old last week. Where has the time gone? Didn't I just bring you home from the hospital?!
Granny took you to get your shots. You did great when you went back to school, but that evening and most of the next day you were fussy with a fever. Your Sissy saw your bandaids and felt so sorry for you. She kissed and loved on you telling you she was sorry you had to get shots. She loves you so much!
Let's see...you could sit up on your own if you wanted to. But you don't really want to, lol! Every time we try to sit you up, you just bend over to chew on your toes. Man do you love those toes.
You must be having a growth spurt because you have been waking up in the early morning the past few days, to eat. You go back to sleep afterwards, so that's good.
You can definitely roll from front to back and back to front. You don't spend a lot of time on the floor because Mommy loves to cuddle you! But I know you and your friend Jack play at school.
My favorite times with you is at night when we are doing our bedtime routine. You are so sweet and cuddly. After you drink your bottle I turn you over to pat you. You always grab ahold of my shirt, and either just hold it there, or chew on it, as you're falling asleep.
You love bath time. You especially love it, if you are taking a bath with Lexi. You are getting too big for your baby bathtub, but we have a dilema since you don't want to sit up yet. You love to kick your leg and splash me. And even when you're in the bath, you're still trying to eat your toes. Silly boy.
I love to peek in your door at night and listen to you snoring. Boy can you snore! You have the sweetest smile, and you are always sharing it with people. No matter where we go, everyone comments on how great of a smile you have. I hope you always share your smile with people.
I love you bunches and bunches!
Love,
Mommy

Letters to Lexi 3/11/13
Lexi Rosemay,
Do you know how much I love you? I hope you never wonder. I hope you go to bed at night and have sweet dreams knowing how loved you truly are.
You are the sweetest girl I've ever met. And I'm not just saying that. You have the kindest heart. If someone else is hurt, you hurt for them. You hated it when you saw Bubba's bandaids the other day when he got shots. You asked me if they hurt. I told you that they probably did. You just kissed him and talked to him and told him you were sorry he had to get shots.
I love to see your smiling face come walking into the bedroom in the morning. Most mornings I'm awake and getting ready for work. You come in and stand and watch me.
Do you know how much I hate to leave you to go to work? On the rare occassion when you get upset when I leave, it breaks my heart. But I know you have fun with your friends at school.
You get so excited when I get home from work. Always telling me, "I'm so glad you're here."
I was worried that you would not understand having a baby in the house. But you do. You get it. You are such a big helper!
Do you know that I come in and watch you sleep? I come in and kiss your cheeks, cover you up, and smile. You are like an angel when you sleep.
You're almost 4 and I can't believe it!
I found some of your school work last night. You had written your name, and then written MOM and DAD. I couldn't believe it! You are just so smart. Your teachers next year are going to have a handful with you!
You sing and talk all day long. It amazes me. You can turn anything into a song. And you are starting to figure out how to make things rhyme. Sometimes the words don't make sense, but you are rhyming!
I love you so much big girl!
Love,
Mommy
