For everyone that has been asking, I had a good birthday/ mother's day. We took a nap and in my opinion you can't ask for a better time then that! Thank you to everyone that called and sent cards. For all those who are wondering, Alexia and Brian (more Brian the Lexi) got me an electric fire extinguisher, specifically one that can be used on a stove. For all of you that follow my blog you will remember that I set our stove on fire during the beginning of April when I was cooking what I thoughts was going to be the best meal ever for Brian. That's right, I had been so proud of myself that I was making my Chef husband dinner, that is until I had to ask him to come help me put out the fire. So he will never let me forget it!
We have not been up to much this week. Lexi is getting ready to be a 1st grader. This is exciting news! She has officially earned 20 certificates this year for being a good friend in class and a good helper. Her goal to cover our fridge before the year is over is done and she could not be prouder of herself. She shows them to everyone that comes to the house, including the pizza delivery driver.
We are also getting ready for Grandpa and Grandma Watson and Uncle Jared to come visit. Lexi is going to bed on time every night so that she will be able to fun things with them when they come. She has one other goal right now, to find something she can give Princess Aunt Jasmine for her graduation. It has to be something that a princess would get for graduating. Beware Jasmine! Lexi has come up with some pretty crazy ideas so far, but you are her princess aunt so we could not expect anything less.
Alexia's note for today:

The Watson's are Back in Action
After what feels like a century fixing my computer it is finally up and running again. Thank you to my wonderful brother-in-laws, Rob and Daryn, who put up with my insane phone calls needing help.
I feel like a lot has happened since I last blogged. I have another church calling- I co-teach Alexia's class (which means I listen to a bunch a six year olds make a lot of noise for 2 hours) but I love being there with Lexi and spending more time with her. She loves to sing and is one of the loudest kids in primary, well when she is not playing with the boys. There is one little boy in her class who asked her to marry him last Sunday. Right in the middle of class as we were talking about how to be good friends J.C. announced that he and Lexi were best friends and that he would marry her to make sure they could be friends forever. Then he kissed her cheek. All very cute, but this mom is not ready for that yet.
Lexi has also started getting ready to be a first grader. She is very excited for summer because she can't wait to see grandpa and grandma Watson and uncle Jared. She has big plans to run you all ragged! Jared, you need to plan on lot of trips to swim at the rec center because Lexi may be big enough for the water slide this year! She is also loving to ride her bike and scooter, so we do that a lot too.
Brian and I are up to the same old stuff. Since it is wedding and graduation season I hardly see him. I feel like I have been working a lot lately too. Dean was heading out for vacation this week so it is always stressful to make sure that all the court documents and deadlines are done before he leaves, then we get a easy week while he is gone since most of the work is done. It will be nice. Maybe Brian and I can actually find some time together. 'Tis the Dream
