Baby Lexi

19 Weeks. These are her legs. Crossed at the ankles like a little lady.
So this was our first look at baby Alexis Janet. This is a little delayed but I was told that before she comes may be the only chance I have to post these pictures for everyone to see, so I'm getting it done :) This was at 6 weeks and 5 days at my very first visit. I am now a day away from being 27 weeks and she is certainly a lot bigger. Hopefully we'll get an updated picture at our next visit on Sept 19. Kurt and I...chose to leave the managing job after a 'small' push from our boss. We were very glad to leave actually and have settled into a new apartment and Kurt into an new job. He is a teller at Wells Fargo and kind-of enjoying it. For all intents and purposes it is a job and we're happy for him to have it. He is also immersed in his MBA program and a class preparing him to get his real estate license. It is our dream to own a few four-plexes in the lovely Rexburg, Idaho and hopefully this is the beginning! We are definitely settled into our ward. Kurt has been called as the Elders Quorum secretary and I, the Relief Society pianist and 'assistant' ward organist. I do play every week though. Apparently the lady currently called as the ward organist hasn't been in a few years because she is quite old and in a nursing home. No one is really sure why they haven't released her yet, but oh well :) as long as they let me take a break after Lexi comes, all will be well. These next few pictures are from when I was at about 19 weeks-July 15.

Kurt and I thought it was a little strange that our technician gave us a picture of her face. Usually they give you a cute profile or something. This is just a little scary...
This is her arm :) Random, yes.
These pictures have helped it seem more real, and we're so excited to welcome Lexi into the world. If she is as active when she is born as she has been in the womb, we will have our hands full!
