Alexa is 3 years old!

Alexa is now 3 years old!!!
You will have to tilt your head and make adjustments to the picture above. I swear it is the best picture I got out of 32! She would not stop moving!
Because of my due date with Brooklyn being so close to Alexa's birthday we decided to have a birthday party for Lexi 2 weeks early. Alexa really wanted a "happy meal birthday party" as she called it. Alexa has asthma and gets sick really easily. McDonald's play place is not an option in our house because of the risk of her getting sick. She just got over a cold of 6 weeks! We decided to have a party at the park and bring happy meals in for the kids. Add cupcakes and presents and it's a party! Alexa was off her game for the party and did not like the attention at all! I ended up holding her as she hid her head while we all sang "happy birthday". We decided not to add to it all and did not do a candle to blow out.
Here are a few of the pictures we did get. There are kids in the picture above. They are all down playing with the toys.


Joshua and I got her a bicycle for her birthday. She loves it and has it down. Tess helped her to learn in the house at first.

They LOVED that I would let them ride in the house and were squealing and laughing for the whole ten minutes. Now, it is an outside only toy!

Happy Birthday Lexi! I love the bike. Where did you get it. We are getting one for Paiten this year too. We'll have to have a bike rodeo this summer!

Happy Birthday, Lexi! 3 is such a great age. I had no idea she was shy. And I love the first picture. Didn't you know... crooked is the new straight.
