Alexa's 1st Birthday!

Alexa turned 1 on January 12th. I can't believe it's already been 1 year!! This last year has been hard, with all of the moving and changing of jobs, but Alexa has definitely made it more enjoyable. She is so stinking fun! She keeps us smiling all day long. Here are a few things she's doing right now:.

*She loves music and dancing. Brittney Spears is her favorite. Everytime her music video "3" is on, she dances like their is no tomorrow. She's quite talented at her "booty drop" move. So cute!

*Words she says: "uh-oh!" when she drops something, "Dada", "ball"

*She loves Elmo & Sesame Street.

*Gives high fives and blows kisses.

*Her favorite foods are yogurt, string cheese, crackers & tacos. Hot sauce does not bother her 1 bit!

*She's practically running already.

*She's able to dribble a ball with her feet throughout the house. Our little soccer pro!


On January 15th, we had a birthday party for her at our apartment club house. It was a lot of fun. She was the cutest little birthday princess ever! Here are a few pictures of the night.

Singing HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

She wasn't too sure about the flame. She tried to put it out with her fingers.

Digging into the cake finally. It took her a few minutes, because she doesn't like her hands to be messy. (And Steve made that cake! It was a princess castle cake. It was very cute)

MMMmmmm...... chocolate!
