June 27, 2012 - Alexa’s 4th Birthday!!!

I can’t believe my sweet, innocent, always wanting to sleep little baby girl has turned into a crazy, mostly outgoing, talkative, silly, imaginative 4 year old! She is VERY opinionated and rather “bossy” at this stage in her life & loves to tell us all how it is, what we should do, and where we should be!

In all seriousness Alexa is a joy to have in our lives and we feel blessed to be her parents. She does a great job of watching over and helping her brother, of taking care of Patches, and of generally being a well-behaved little girl…generally at least! :)

Here’s a few pictures of Alexa’s cake & birthday get-together, it was an incredibly HOT (make that sweltering) day but we tried to have fun anyway!

Alexa loved having Auntie Kiley home from Honduras ~ here she and Auntie Jill are in the bouncy castle with her

Alexa received a pretty cool card Kinzie made all on her own & as you can see she was pretty thrilled with her new umbrella and apron as well! - She loved ALL her gifts - if you can imagine that!
