Introducing...

Alexis Elaine Muhlestein ("Lexi")





Lexi was born Oct. 24, 2011 at 3:49 pm in Irving, TX. She weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and was 20" long. She has been a wonderful little girl who rarely fusses, is a good eater, and sleeps lots. After having had only Nicholas for so long, it is kind of surreal having a little newborn again, but we already love her bunches.

As a side note, her name Alexis means "defender", and her name "Elaine" (after Grandmother Muhlestein) means "light". So together, it means "Defender of the Light". We hope that that is exactly what she will be!

Her cousin, Sara Yelena Elizabeth Muhlestein, thinks that her name totally rocks. She especially likes the Elaine part, since Yelena is the russian varient of Elaine.

I think that she's gorgeous, and we're so very grateful to have her here.
