Lexi van Gogh

I've been super busy at day care preparing for our art show on Friday. Last week I painted with my hands and feet. Yesterday I painted with my whole arm. Today I spent a while painting with rollers. I tend to be more of an abstract painter. I can't wait to share my paintings with you. Just don't be too critical. I'm still finding my painting voice.

Playing with my stacking cups helps me relax after
a long day of painting.

Market maneuvering

Guess what I got to do. Go ahead guess. You'll never guess it. I got to ride in a shopping cart ... in the big kid part! It was AWESOME! I loved looking around and seeing everything and everybody. I even got to help hold some groceries. It was only scary on the turns because mommy is a fast driver and I would slip to the side a little, but it was still super fun. I hope we get to do this every week!

Attention Wegman's shoppers, cuteness in aisle 3.

Mommy's day

Happy Mother's Day mommy! Daddy is helping me write this post so it is a surprise for you. I love you sooooooooooooo much! You are the best mommy and writing partner a little lady like me could have. I love you. Hugs and wet kisses!

Me and mommy.

Inspector Lexi

Since it was raining out today, mommy dressed me in a new kind of coat called a trench coat. Mommy said I looked like Inspector Gadget. She explained he was a cartoon that she watched as a kid. Then all morning she sang this silly song where she kept calling me Inspector Lexi and told me to "go Lexi go." It kept making me chuckle. Later I did some Googling of Inspector Gadget and found his theme song that mommy was trying to sing. Silly mommy.

Don't eat the grass

Yesterday we went on something called a “sensory nature walk” at day care. It’s weird that they call it a walk when we don’t walk, we just sit in the grass. I’ve never sat in grass before so I wasn’t sure what to do. Do you just play with it like a toy, or do you try to eat it (kind of like my toys too)? When I tried to eat a piece of grass I quickly learned you don’t do that. Grass is just for playing. Either way, it was just fun being outside.

Lonely lady

I've been feeling lonely lately. The feeling comes on whenever I look up from playing with my toys and find nobody is in the room with me. At first I get a little startled. Then I get a little sad and start to cry. Within seconds mommy or daddy will come back in the room, say hello and then I'm all happy again. It's quite the emotional roller coaster! I know they aren't far away, and I'm totally fine, but I like having an audience.

I love playing on mommy and daddy's bed. 

Selfie Sunday 25

I've been sitting in a lot of high chairs lately. Here is one of me at the mall today. Have a great Sunday everyone!
