As of Lately...

Well, once again, let's talk about how I am dropping the ball on this whole "blogging" thing.
I. Am. Terrible.

We have been rather busy lately...Lexi belle is quickly approaching 17 months and has really been changing! She is starting to talk (babble) WAY more. It is soooo cute! She is cutting teeth daily and it has put a damper on her happy-go-lucky personality. The darn things are painful! Ugh! She is a tough little cookie though. She hasn't been sleeping the greatest, but I'm sure it's because of the teeth. She had an ear infection a few weeks ago and I'm hoping that it isn't coming back..if so, tubes might be in our near future.

Last week Robert and I went to Chicago for a business trip. He had a meeting, so we went a couple of extra days and did a lot of shopping and eating. Such a fun place! Loved it. Want to go back. Definitely wouldn't ever want to live there, though! I'll post pictures later.

Lexi's 17 month report:

-30 lbs.
-2T Clothes
-6-7 Shoe
-Loves chicken nuggets/fingers, potato rounds, mac 'n cheese, oatmeal, biscuits and gravy, etc. She hates veggies. I know, terrible, but she WON'T eat them! or fruit for that matter. I don't know what to do.
-I hate to say this, but she still takes a bottle sometimes. She will drink out of a sippy cup, but at bedtime, she wants her bottle. We are working on that.

Well, that's about it for now friends.
I'll post all pics next time so it will be a little more enjoyable to read/look at.

Kansas City Zoo Trip- Picture Overload

Today we went to the Kansas City Zoo for KCPL's Employee Appreciation Day! This was Lexi Belle's first time to the zoo, and she liked it! It was a beautiful day. Perfect Fall day to be outside enjoying the cool weather! I didn't take as many pictures as I would have liked to, but here are a few to showcase our day.  I think her favorite animal was the little monkey. They were jumping on the net right in front of us and she thought that was pretty neat!

AND...Just wanted to talk about Lexi Belle's new kitty at Grandma's. She loves her..and that cat is SO patient! She lets Lex drag her around anywhere she wants to go!!

Hilarious. 

Love our little Bella. Can't believe she is already months old. Wow. 

Oh yeah, next weekend we will be strolling the streets of...

We will miss Lexi Belle, but she will be enjoying a few days at Nana, Poppy, and Cam's. 

Whew. That was a long post. 

Until later :)

KC Chiefs Game and Randomness

 

Yesterday we went to the KC Chiefs game with my brother and sister-in-law. It was a beautiful day!! The Chiefs didn't do so hot, but we had a blast!!!

Here are some randoms from lately! 

Also, we have been dealing with a double ear infection. Poor baby! She is one tough little stinker though! 

Getting a kick out of Nana!

Lexi Belle was getting a kick out of nana today at lunch! My grandma sent me this video. So, so , so cute!

Lexi Lately

We have had a ton of stuff going on around the Hollinsworth House lately! We are thinking about making some changes in our world and it seems like we have been on the go constantly!
