Rebels

On January 16, 2010, we took Alexis to her first UNLV game.

On the way there.

Hey, what's that?

The view from our seats.

Alexis and Daddy during half time.

Being silly.

Just having a good time.

Happy girl!

With a mouthful.

Alexis loves game food.

What a ham!

Daddy & Alexis

Mommy & Alexis

Everyone had a great time!

Big Girl Bed

The weekend after New Year's Eve, Mommy and Daddy were sleeping, when they suddenly heard a big thud, followed by a cry that made both Mommy and Daddy JUMP out of bed. We ran into Alexis' room and found her sitting on the floor pouting, with a red mark on her head. Apparently, Alexis had decided to take a flying leap out of her crib. So, we all went to the store and bought a Big Girl Bed.

Believe it or not, she's sleeping in that picture.

I think she likes it.

New Year's Eve

On New Year's Eve, Alexis and Mommy went to Leiisa's house. We didn't stay for long, so I only took a few pictures.

Alexis and Anna enjoying some popcorn.

I'm not sure what Alexis is doing here, but Anna was keeping a close eye on her.

Ms. Matilda all tuckered out.

Uh-Oh!

A day at the park

One of the great things about living in Vegas is that we have a lot of really nice parks,

and with the weather we have, it's almost always a nice day to go to the park.

Here are some ducks enjoying a swim at the park.

Geese too.

Alexis liked watching the pigeons.

I'm not sure what she was looking at, but she definitely seems interested.

Alexis watching the birds.

Getting down low for another perspective.

A pond.

Another pond, at the same park.

And another one.

And then we happened upon something else...

A rat!

The rat and the geese playing together.

The ducks didn't seem to mind either.

There were people taking engagement pictures just to the right of us, and the sight of the rat made them scream, but...

Alexis was very interested.

Here she is showing the ducks her Teddy Grahams.

Enjoying some Teddy Grahams by the water.

The rat, again.

A goose.

Mommy thought this sign was funny, since the water was maybe only 6 inches deep. It probably wasn't necessary to post a sign that says "No Swimming or Diving"

The beautiful moutains that surround Vegas.

This is on the playground.

Alexis enjoying the slide.

Showing Daddy how to climb on the playground.

"Hi Mommy!"

Watching the other kids.

The mountains again.

Even when we're not playing, Mommy & Daddy still love the sight of a football flying through the air.
