As you would probably expect, Lexi's brother has his own blog:

One day, I'll get a chance to spruce it up a little.

Niece's Blog

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT....

My brother & sister-in-law have created a blog for their cute little daughter, Eden. I am so happy to finally see pictures of her. Here is the link:

Because My Brother Teased Me

On the way home from work, I called my brother to nag him once again to send photos of his daughter. For heaven sakes, the girl was born 3 weeks before Lexi and I have only seen one photo of her. It was back in JANUARY when she was 3 days old that he e-mailed a picture. As the conversation progressed, I tried to convince him that he & his wife should start a blog. They don't live near any grandparents or many family members, so it is a great idea. Plus, then I could stop nagging him. One of the selling points I mentioned was that everyone could keep up on her latest news.

THAT is when he started laughing. He said everyone knows every little thing about Lexi and that I have done more than a great job at the information flow and photos. I guess we are on opposite ends of the spectrum, but I still think he should e-mail a photo at least every 2 months. Is that too much to ask? So, Mr. Never Send Photos of your Daughter, I'm posting these pictures for you. I know you were dieing to see Lexi in this cute little outfit!

I vow to continue nagging you & our other brothers who live near you until you are motivated to send a photo. Yes - simply e-mail a photo. We'll work on getting you a blog later (cowgirl themed b/c that fits).

How It Works

Ok all you closet blog readers, I know who most of you are and I could list names, but I'll be nice. I am glad that you are all reading this blog, but do you know the official term for what you are doing is called lurking? While it is not a bad thing, poor little Lexi's blog appears to be very unpopular. Post after post goes with no or few comments. WizeUp, The Princess, and the Boss are probably getting tired of carrying all of you. Blogging is meant to be interactive. That is what makes it fun.

I realize that most of you are not bloggers and therefore are probably unaware of how the comments section works, so this post is dedicated to explaining it. On the bottom of each entry there is a link that says Comments. If you click on it, you can read and add comments. You can type in your name or a nickname. Then, type in some comments. It can range from one word like, "hi" or "wow" to a long paragraph. You don't have to add your e-mail, but if you choose to I will be the only one who has access to it. In order for me to access it, I have to go to a different website and log in. Most likely, I'll just leave a comment on the blog to reply to yours.

See...it is easy! Be wild & try leaving a comment. I promise it doesn't hurt.

New Blog

I am creating a new blog for Lexi for 2 reasons.

1. It is fun.

2. I am already getting bored of my blog design & will drive myself crazy redesigning it too often. That means it will go through some ugly stages. Hopefully, this will curb that need.

If you think it is overkill, you can blame Cousin Emily. I got the idea from her. :)
