Hello Baby Face-Goodbye newborn face

Our first visit to the park with Lexy...Here she is lying in the shade...we had fun playing and going on the swings (with mommy holding her of course).
Here's one that my step brother Jason took of her...what a model!!...and no you can't steal her from me cause I know that's what you're thinking! :)
This is Lexy in her new baby gym. She loves to stare at her bird that moves and the tiny dragonfly and butterfly that hang from above. She also has figured out how to kick at the toys to make them make noise and she waves and swings her arms around...so yes, now I know why they call this a gym! She gets quite a workout!
Lexy and Lauryn! She loves getting horsey rides on aunt lolo's lap...also, having staring contests now..don't blink! Posted by Picasa

Happy Girl

So a day in the life of miss Alexya Hernandez goes as follows... I eat, poop, sleep and then I'm awake and I want to talk to you. She has become the most talkative cooing baby overnight. Suddenly this little 8wk old has discovered that people think she's cute and so whenever someone is standing over her while she is lying on her back, she looks up at them and just starts talking...obviously not real words, but alot of vowel sounds like "eye, oh oooooh, and eee" and her little mouth starts working and contorting in funny ways with her tounge sticking out then in then moving all around...it's hilarious. She even has figured out a way to laugh which sounds like when you have finished a big laugh and you kinda gasp for air real quick...not sure how to explain the sound exactly, but she just sucks in air real quick with her mouth in a smile and it makes a funny noise. It's so cute!!! What a little personality already. OH and if you leave the room and she's alone she'll figure it out and yell out real loud once...like "hey, where'd you go?" So funny. Another thing she loves is her swing!! Thank you aunt Mary!!!! It's like she craves it..you can be holding her and she will start fussing and kicking and squirming around and then you put her in the swing and Bam! she's out cold!! Even in the middle of the night after she eats sometimes she's wide awake and it's like 3am so we're half asleep and so we put her in her swing and she just stares wide awake at her little bird and the lights until she passes out. It's so nice.
We went to visit Grandma and Grandpa last wednesday and had a fun visit. Here's Lexy cuddling with Grandpa, they took a quick nap. She loved all the attention and got to meet her uncle Jason and his wife Charlie. Everyone wanted to hold her so she was in heaven. She also got to see a dog smaller than Toretto! They are moving into their new home so this will probably be the last visit to the old house.
Thank you Aunt Therese and Uncle Scott and Jennifer and Brooke for the new favorite toy. Lexy loves this thing. It lights up and plays classical music and she loves staring at it and trying to push the button.
Here's a pic of Lexy with her Aunt Erica...what a natural! By the way, this is from Erica's visit like 3 weeks ago and Lexy doesn't even fit this outfit anymore!!!!! So sad, all her cute newborn outfits are too small now...but, now she fits into her cute 0-3 month outfits so it's ok. :) Posted by Picasa

Cuter Every Day!!

Is it possible for her to be getting cuter every single day???!!! I swear, I am falling so in love with this little girl and each day I think..I can't possibly love her any more than I do today, she is so cute...and then I think the same thing the next day! She is changing so FAST that I am amazed at the new things she does and the new expressions she has each day. What a personality already. When she is happy...she is cooing and smiling and just stares at you with the happiest possible expression on her face and her little arms and hands waving around while her little legs are kicking out like she's trying to ride a skateboard or something. When she is mad...look out world, because she can scream louder than you would think can come out of this little bundle! She definately is learning what she likes and doesn't like already and already is deciding which music she likes...which is reggae and jack johnson right now. We are totally having fun trying to guess what she will be like when she gets older...like what type of personality she is going to have. We have kind of come to an agreement on what we think. We think she is going to definately know what and who she likes and doesn't like and she's not going to be afraid to say what she thinks. She's going to have mom's fiestyness (according to robert) and dad's heart (according to me). hehehehe sounds like fun! We will have to wait and see.... Anyway, I put a picture of Robert's successful attempt at giving her the bottle..the first time didn't go so well, but she will have to get used to it once I go back to work so we are trying to introduce it once in a while for now.
Here's my sleeping beauty....
Here's a picture of her in the coolest onesie ever! It says "My dad and I both drool for the Oakland Raiders" and Robert has the matching shirt that says "My daughter and I..."
This picture is classic....it just shows one of the many interesting positions that Lexy likes to sleep in! Posted by Picasa

Happy New Year 2007!

Our New Year's eve was very low key...just a visit from grandpa Mike and aunt Lauryn aka aunt lo lo. We had fun watching football, eating chinese food and making a cake. Unfortunately, we didn't stay up for the new year....boooooo, but we did get up at 3am for a feeding and diaper change...yaaaaaa!
Alexya took a spin in her swing for the first time...looks like she likes it! Please notice the awesome Raiders pacifier...that's right...and the Raiders football clip to keep it from falling on the ground. No playoffs this year, but she's die hard ya know.
What a lil bundle!!!!
Sorry about the red eye, but this was such a cute picture! She's making the cutest expressions now and she even said her first word!!..... well, ok maybe you won't consider it a word, but she yells "eye" at the top of her lungs so we're counting it! Posted by Picasa
