Sorry Lexi...

How pathetic am I?  Lexi's birthday was 2 MONTHS AGO and I have not posted a thing about her special day!!  It's a good thing she doesn't read this blog or I'd be in some serious trouble.  Although, I'm starting to think no one else reads this thing either.  Anyway, back to my Lexi. 

Since it was just us for the big day she picked out this cute little Ariel cake.  Poor girl, since her birthday is at the beginning of the school year she has never had a big party with lots of family.

 

 Since Lexi wanted a Little Mermaid theme this year for her birthday I thought it would be fun to take her to see a REAL mermaid.  So, we took her to a local resort to see their aquarium and "real mermaids".  Sadly, the aquarium was tiny and sad and the mermaids were an hour behind schedule.  By the time they finally showed up Lexi was so hungry that she watched the girl swim around the tank once just to humor me and then insisted that we go eat.  So we did. 

It's almost impossible to get Isaac to look at the camera!

We finished the day with cake and a movie.

Disneyland

  Last month we went on our annual Disneyland trip.  This year was very different from past visits.  Not only has our party of four grown to a party of five, but the girls are growing up too.  Since the girls are older their interests are slowly changing as well.  We went on so many rides this year that they had always refused to go on before.  We finally got them to go on Space Mountain, and Lexi went with me on the Tower of Terror, it was so much fun!  I think our only stops in Fantasyland were for the carousel, the sword in the stone, and of course the tea cups.   

 

 

 

Isaac was his usually, happy self the whole time.  He had so much to look at and when he had had too much he would just fall asleep in his stroller. 

 

Part of Lexi's birthday present was lunch at Ariel's Grotto with all of the Princesses. It was fun for me, since Audrey insists that she is too old for the Princesses.  She was quick to get in every picture and have them sign her book though.  And Lexi felt pretty special, even if Tim did drop her pink cupcake on the floor.  Woops!

 

 

We can't wait for next year!

I'll post more pictures once I can get them all off mine and Tim's phones.
