Lexi

Introducing the newest family member~ Lexi!  We have had the amazing privilege of being able to spend some time with Lexi in the past couple of months while the adoption paperwork was being processed.   I thought I would share a few pictures I took during that time.   While we never used the word "sister" during that period of time,  Lila quickly fell into the role of big sister.


Sweet girls

Check out her eyes!

This is my favorite expression- she loves to give a little sideways glance!

Happy Girl!

Mutual adoration

Justin, Maggs and Lexi

 She's probably wishing I would put the camera away.  Never.gonna.happen.
 

Checking out Justin's facial hair


 Love this one

 Favorite toy!

I will be writing a post about our adoption story.  Before I do that, there are two other kids of mine that are wayyyyy overdue a blog post! 


Wedding post coming soon.    Adoption post after that!   And an explanation of the incredible way they tie together.   

5 great kids.  3 by birth, one by marriage, one by adoption.  We are very blessed.


Hugs~
