Alexia has grown up so quickly.  She seems so much older and is doing so many more things than she was doing even just a few months ago.  She has a really fun personality and loves to hang out with her friends and family.  She is already a very social girl (although she does take a few minutes to warm up to any new people or new situations).  She amazes us daily with how smart she is.  I think it really helps that her big brother really enjoys teaching her things and she has quite a few adults in her life who take time to work with her on things like puzzles and counting and playing board games.  Sometimes it is easy to forget that she is only 2 1/2 because she seems more mature than a lot of kids her age.  I'm sure she will have her moments though to remind us how young she is.
