Meet us Monday (Lexi)






Alexia Grace is our "Rainbow baby" and our "Twin-less twin". If you are not familiar with those to terms here are their meanings: "Rainbow Baby" is a baby that is born after a miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death and a "Twin-less twin" is a baby/child that had a twin and the twin passed away. Lexi as we call her was born on January 20th 2014. I cant believe in just a week she will be 2! She was such an easy baby and I'm not saying that because she is mine, I say it cause it's true. She didn't even cry when she was hungry she would just whine a little. Everyone couldnt get over how laid back and easy going she was. She surprised us with her labor and delivery (which by far was the fastest one for us). She was so eager to come into the world she was born with the Doctor not even there and the poor nurse had no time to put gloves on. Alexia weighed 8lb 14.2 oz and was perfect.

Today as a 2 year old (well almost) she is still the easiest most laid back child we have. She has truly spoiled us with her behavior. Unlike her 2 older sisters she is a complete mommy's girl and is always right beside me. I cant wait to see what she becomes as she grows and starts to really adventure around. Since she is too little to ask questions to I figured I will leave you with some facts about our Alexia Grace and also include a picture of her twin whose an angel.

  1. Lexi has brown eyes making the numbers 2 with brown, 2 with blue, 1 with green, and 1 whose eyes are hazel at the moment.
  2. She has a fraternal twin who passed at 10 weeks into the pregnancy.
  3. Her labor and delivery was only 5 hours long and with one push she was out!
  4. Lexi had GERD while she was a baby and had to have cereal in her bottles to help her gain weight.
  5. she was well over a year old before she got any teeth at all, we thought she never would get them lol.
