Spoiled by Grandpa

Lexie is a lucky little girl because she has a Grandpa in Chicago who loves her so much. I'm an only child and Lexie is my dad's first grandchild. He has never met Lexie yet and has only seen her in pictures and videos. Almost every few weeks, Lexie gets a box in the mail with clothes, books and toys from her grandpa.Eric & I laugh about it because it's hard to imagine my dad going into these baby stores and shopping for a little girl. He told me that he's gotten better at the shopping part. He knows when there are sales and he makes sure that he uses his coupons to get extra discounts. He always calls us and says that he went a little crazy, but these clothes were on sale, so he couldn't help buying them.We are extremely grateful for everything he buys for Lexie. He's getting better at guessing at the sizes since Lexie is a hard toddler to shop for. She's long, but skinny, so she wears clothes from 3 months up to 12 months. So my dad always makes sure that he has her latest measurements.Grandpa is supposed to be coming for a visit in December. We can't wait for Lexie to finally meet him. We hope one day to visit Chicago so we can see where grandpa lives and maybe even meet some other Taiwan cuties who go to the dragon boat festival every summer.

  1. I love that cap, even though it does make her look like a boy.
