Last Thursday Lexy had her first play date with other kids her age. My friend Catherine was kind enough to have us over to her house in Dublin and play with Thomas, her son who is almost 2, and our new friend Laila, daughter of a friend from ex-work mervyns. At first Lexy was very quiet and not sure how to act around someone her size, but it didn't take long for her to loosen up and have a lot of fun with her friends! Thomas is such a good example for Alexya because he is walking and talking and even knows his alphabet very well! He shares his toys and loved feeding Lexy cheerios! They were so cute to watch! :) Also, amazingly....after the play date...later that day, Lexy decided to stand up without holding onto anything for the first time!! She did it for like 5 seconds! So exciting! Also, Catherine loned us a walking/bike toy that Lexy pushes around now and can practice walking...she is getting so confident that it shouldn't be long now! Thanks Catherine!
Lexy also got to meet a new friend Laila, who is a month and a half older than her, and like Thomas, is good at saying "dada" and other words. Then today for the first time Lexy said "dada" over and over to robert even pointing at him! So thanks Laila and Thomas!
Oh and that reminds me that everyone is invited to Alexya's 1 year birthday party!! I will be sending out an evite and if you don't get it it means I don't have your email or have the wrong one so please let me know if you don't get it by Nov...and mark the date on your calendar for Saturday, Nov 24th (sat after Thanksgiving). We hope everyone can at least stop by to say hi and see Lexy cause she is growing so fast! :)

Oh the playdate pictures are sooo cute! I can't wait till Isabel is old enough to play with you guys. At least until she's crawling around. She's getting stronger every day and bigger too! I'm pretty sure we will go Lexy's birthday party in Nov. I'll double check with Ben. We're kind of hesitant on taking Isabel to places with lots of people before she turns 3 months.
