Happy 3rd Birthday Alexandra!

Saturday we celebrated Alexandra's 3rd birthday with friends and family. She had a Tinkerbelle themed party. She also wore her Tinkerbelle costume from Halloween. My friend Debi from IL along with her 15 year old daughter and girlfriend came to visit as well. She started the Happy Birthday song and sang along to herself, blew out the candles and ate lots of cake, ice cream and cupcakes.

Not something a mom wants to brag about but had to share. While opening presents Alex started to have a spoiled rotten brat tantrum. She wanted to stop opening presents and continue to play with her new baby doll stroller from Aunt Tippy. It was so difficult to make her understand she has more presents to open, the stroller will still be there when she is done and people are watching while you throw your lil hissy fit and cry. I got rather embarrassed as she showed all the party guests her mental melt down. She pouted, folded her arms and stuck her nose out at me as I coaxed her to open more presents. We finally were able to finish the gifts and she was back at pushing her babies around in the stroller. She received two baby strollers and generously shared the other with best buddy Lance (not a proud moment for his father).

She then of course couldnt steer way of another tantrum throwing moment. When Daddy was playing with her and 3 other friends, trying to show her how to feed a new baby doll (thanks Kari-Kari for the pissing doll. I need another butt to wipe around here) she grabbed the doll from him and literally screamed "No Daddy! MINE!". Out the corner of my eye I see Daddy snatch her up quickly and take her to time out. Five minutes later Mommy and Daddy had a talk with her to help her understand the word "Mine" is not to be said and sharing is required.

Minus the little meltdowns and tantrums, we had a great time.



Probably one of the fakest smiles she has tried to pull off. She was too anxious to pose for the camera. She wanted to taste the cake again.

Singing Happy Birthday to herself along with everyone...

Maverick enjoyed the new stroller. Alex didnt have to put him in there. He got in all by himself.
