Ants in Her Pants

Girlfriend has major ants in her pants. The girl CANNOT sit still! She has this new move that mimics some sort of baby yoga pose. It is really not safe but Mommy decided to let her do it one more time to get a picture. Anyway, she can lift her entire bumbo in the air while sitting on it. She then flips her little body around for some unknown reason.

This picture does not do justice to "Lexa's School of Yoga". (It does however, give you some idea as to how much she gets into her bananas.)



Yep, not much of this being seen lately...probably time to move on from the bumbo seat.



The other morning, Daddy commented on what a good thing it was that Lexa was strapped into her swing. She was full-on swinging (and the swing is nicely reclined for an enjoyable ride) but decided to maneuver herself to a sitting upright position. It was too funny looking.



She did a similar movement in the car today. Really, why lean back and enjoy the ride when you can spend a 20 minute car ride holding your head up against the will of your car seat straps?? No, Mommy does not have pictures of this feat because she was, well...driving. Yes, it did cross her mind to take one though!

Another new Lexa move. Pulling herself up in the tub! Mommy finds it almost impossible to bathe the child as she, again, doesn't use the built in recline function and literally pulls herself to her knees. Mommy puts her back in a nice seated position only to have Miss Lexa do it all over again! She's a pistol!



Me, sit still??? NEVER!



On another note...Lexa had her 6-month checkup today. She's doing just swell! She weighed in at 15.6 lbs...44th percentile and 25 1/2 inches....43rd percentile. She actually gained nearly a pound in about 2 1/2 weeks...so there was a reason Mommy felt the need to eat EVERYTHING in sight lately!

She is a bling kind of girl though...wouldn't you agree?
