Alexandra's 5th Birthday!

Wow, it's hard to believe that it was 5 years ago when we found out we were expecting our first child! Alexandra has brought so much joy to our lives and we are so blessed to have such a wonderful, sensitive, smart, and happy little girl! Isabel is sure lucky to have a such a good example! Just some tid bits about Alexandra that you may not know...

1. She loves to dance, SING , practice gymnastics, and put on a show---> she thinks she's Shirley Temple (too many movies with Pappoo)
2. She likes to look nice (one morning she was crying because the outfit I picked out for her was not stylish)
3. Alexandra loves learning. Her teacher tells us she is very bright! One of her favorite questions recently is "Where did that come from?".. and no not babies thank goodness and please don't mention it! lol! She sat with me and watched with me the process of sugar being refined and has been talking about it ever since!
4. She is quite the artist. Mrs. Johnston says she is very meticulous about her coloring, drawing and painting!
5. Her pretend name is always "Jen" when playing with Isabel.. i'm guessing after Aunt Jenni!
6. She is very determined. Nobody stands in her way when she decides to do something.
7. She knows how to burp! I can't even do that.. yuck!
8. Alexandra wants to be a princess when she grows up.. I told her she may have to move to England :)
9. She really enjoys taking walks around the neighborhood.. what do I mean by that.. Daddy and Mommy walks, Alexandra drives Isabel around in their electric car.. she likes to think she is a very good driver.
10. She is very likeable and makes new friends very easily.
11. She is health conscious..or at least before she eats something she asks "Is this healthy?" she had to have gotten that from her Aunt Jamie because everyone knows it's not from me!

Anyways, below are some pictures from her birthday party. She had a fabulous time with friends and family! Thanks for coming!
