1st birthday, Alexandra, baby, children, family, life, parenting, personal, photography

You are sweet and happy and silly and a little dare devil  …  You scream “Hola!” at every person you see  …  You can do a 180 faster than anything I’ve ever seen (we just have to show you a diaper).

You are absolutely everything we could have wished for in a little girl and we love you!

Welcome to Daily Dex!

We live in Mexico City, Mexico. Our families live in the Midwest, USA. The distance didn't seem so bad when it was just my husband and I, but after Dexter arrived, and especially after Alexandra arrived, 1500 miles was just too much for our families.

Shortly after Dexter was born, so was Daily Dex: our little blog is designed to be a safe haven for all the gushing, bragging and sharing of Dexter’s & Alex's daily accomplishments and adorable little milestones.

In other words, if you came here – you are asking for it!
