ALEXA BELL OR ALEXA LU???

Well the time has come to make a big change in my cute little Lexi's life.... Poor child, we just figured out how we like to spell "LEXI", and it took us a while. Now we are going to officially change her middle name. Right now her middle name is "SUE" like Breanna's, but Ellee's middle name is not Sue and we don't want just one girl without the middle name Sue...so anyways to make a long story short, I found out that before the child turns 6, you can officially change their name on their birth certificate for only $15.
So lets hear from all of you out there. I am pretty sure I know which name I like the best for her, but lets see what you all like!!!
Just leave a comment if you have an opinion....
You have to choose between
ALEXA BELL OR ALEXA LU
Those are the options!!

CUTE PICS OF ELLEE AND LEXI

Here are some random pics of Lex and Ellee. Krista came up to visit and she had fun taking most of these pics....thanks kris!!

Cute little chubby baby face!!! I love you!!

She loves to "help" me do the dishes!!!

We don't have sidewalks out here in the country, so we teach our kids to run down the middle of the road!!!

Yes she is outside in her undies...how would it be to be three again????

WE LOVE SOCCER!!!!

Our two kids Bre and Brandon just did the Kohls cup. It was a long and very fun day full of nothing but soccer games. I coached Brandons team and they played their little hearts out but didn't do to well. He was bummed about not winning a game but only for about an hour. And he has moved on to BASEBALL which he loves!! So its all good.
Daryl coached Bre's team and they did awesome....coming in second place. She loves soccer and plays it year round and is really improving a lot. She has a cute bunch of friends that she plays with and they have fun together. I didn't take any video, but a got a few pics to remember the fun times!!!
Thanks so much to D's mom for coming to help us with the little girls, we couldn't have done it with out you!!!

ST. GEORGE...

We just took a quick trip to St. George. We went when the weather up here was awful!!! So it was awesome to be down in the warm sunshine. My sis Krista went with us and she kept my girls so entertained!!! We had so much fun just laughing and telling stories.
We actually went down to visit my grandpa. My grandma just passed away and he is wanting to sell his house, so we went down to help him and one of my aunts organize stuff and go through stuff and clean out stuff. I have always loved granma and granpas house. They moved there 10 years ago, right when D and I got married, it was sad to be there without grandma, but nice to be there. He just moved into a place where he can live on his own, but they feed him every meal and help him if and when he needs it!! Granpa loved baby Ellee. He would pick her up and play with her. We actually left Brandon to play with his cousins, so I missed him lots, but I know he had lots of fun!!!

Breanna loved sticking her head out in the "warm air"!!! We were laughing SO HARD!!!
I LOVE TO LAUGH!!! -thanks bre and lex and krista

Lex had to try it too!!!

Grandpa loved baby Ellee!!!

This is grandpas new place...kinda small, but perfect for one person

Ellee is walking.....almost

My cute little sweetie is almost walking!!! Brenda gave Ellee this little walking toy!! Ellee LOVES it. Every time she uses it she has a huge smile on her face. I thought she might not be walking by her birthday, but maybe just maybe she will!!!!! I guess we will see!
PS Don't pay attention to my baby talk :)
