Lexi's Blessing

On Sunday, two major events occured in Lexi's life: 1. She turned 2 months old and 2. She was blessed. 

Lexi is two months old!  She had her check-up and everything looks good.  She weighed 11 lbs 9 oz.  and is 22 1/4 inches long.  It was also time for her first shots, unfortunatly she didn't really have the best reaction from the immunizations.  After her appointment, we came home and she took a good nap, but when she woke up, she just screamed and screamed.  Her legs must have been so sore, because everytime she moved her legs she screamed out in pain.  We were totally unprepared because we didn't have any infant tylenol, so after a quick run to the store and she got a good dose of tylenol, she did better.  I'll have to remember this for next time!
I was so glad that my parents made another trip over for the blessing.  I love it when they come!  Abby followed my Dad around the whole time he was here.  And my Mom is always great company and such help.  On Saturday night my parents offered to watch the kids so we could finally go on a "Valentines" date.  We went to see the movie "Valentines Day" which was cute, but when we returned we discovered that Lexi wasn't quite ready for the seperation.  Apperantly my parents had a hard time keeping her calmed down, which of course made me feel horrible.

On Sunday, all the family came and the blessing went great. Lexi was quiet and was given such a sweet blessing. Afterwards, we had dinner and hung out.
