Alexa Grows TALL

Okay, not really, but doesn't she look very tall in this picture?In other news at our house-I made Alexa a skirt from this tutorial. Unfortunately I should have trusted my instincts, which said "That skirt is way too wide for your skinny daughter!" It looks sort of dumb on Alexa because it is too gathered. Hopefully it will look better on one of her friends! Unfortunate really, since I took my time and sewed it so carefully.

We bought a parakeet this weekend. He is yellow and named Tweety. I know that isn't terribly original, but we wanted something Alexa might be able to say in the near future. Alexa can hardly keep her hands off his cage. We keep telling her.."Just LOOK at the bird, don't touch!"
