Alexa's 3rd Birthday! - Edition 1

Here are a few pictures of Alexa's big day!!  She has been so excited about her birthday and has been anticipating it for quite a while already.  ("Is my birthday there yet? It's taking soooo looooong!")
David was able to take the morning off of work so he could stick around for a family breakfast and watch Alexa open her presents.

Proud, three-year-old birthday girl!

Bday breakfast, complete with Alexa's request: croissants and pains au chocolat! :-)

Yay, a sticker book!  Thank you, Greatgrandma and Greatgrandpa Skinner!! :-)

Painting a birdie house Lucia gave her.

It's always nice when Papa is home, especially when it's your birthday!!

Wednesday was the coldest day yet (with a high of 43 degrees), so Lucia decided it was time to pull out the gloves.  (Also the first day we've had to turn on the heat!)

Afternoon birthday coffee time... SOOOO happy to finally be three!!

And the much anticipated birthday cake. :-)

Her "friend party" is coming up tomorrow (Saturday) - I'll have to post some of those pictures too. Birthdays are delightful, aren't they? ;-)
