Happy Father's Day! (Plus an update on Lexi's milestones...)

Jon's first Father's Day (with Lexi) was today. It's kind of sad that he's not here, but he's away for a good cause and I cannot be any prouder of him! His flight made BEAST Excellence this past week, which puts them in the running for Warrior Flight, which would give them an extra day of Town Pass-I really hope they get it!!

I took some pictures of Lexi for a gift I made him. I'm going to try to (safely) transport it to San Antonio. They're in a frame, so I'm not sure how it's going to work! Anyway, I think they turned out really cute, and I hope that he likes them!

It was a lot of fun taking these pictures-I CANNOT believe how big Lexi is getting!

She is officially mobile...but only scooting backwards! Which makes her really mad when she's trying to get to Llata, our dog. But she also thinks she's hilarious because she can get to her toys when she wants to now! She tries with all of her might to get onto her knees, but she can't quite get there (also makes her mad!)

She is also trying to get from her seated position to her tummy/knees (for crawling). I discovered her trying to do this and it scared me sooooo bad!! Her feet get stuck, so it lifts her up into what looks like she's trying to stand up! She's just not steady enough to be in that position so, had I not seen her doing that, she probably would have fallen quite hard on her face! :-/ I really miss her days of just lying on the ground waiting for me to put things in front of her. Life gets hard once the baby becomes in any way mobile. And Lexi is SO SO SO SO independent, already! Jon and I are going to have our hands full!

I will try to get a video of her mobility this week!

Only 8 more days until I head down to San Antonio to see Jon graduate from Basic Training!!! Cannot wait!!!
