Happy 3rd Birthday Lexi!

I know this post is a week late but better late then never. Last week my sweet Lexi turned 3. Just like all other moms out there I wanted to make that day extra special and have activities planned for Lexi. I had originally decided that I would do that by leaving Lexi with my mom while Brody and I worked. Once we got home we would go over to Boondocks and play since we had never been there before. Well once her birthday came I decided I really just wanted to stay home with my baby instead of working. Thankfully I work for a great company that was understanding and let me take a half day to spend with Lexi. We started the afternoon with lunch at Tara's house with Papa Martin, Grandma Janean, Carter, Ava and of course Tara. After that we went over to the Splash Park and let the kids play for a while.

Lexi hates being splashed by other kids so she played around the edge of all the water.

After the Splash Park we went to Artic Circle for an ice cream cone.

Once we left Artic Cirlce it was nap time so we went home and Lexi took a nap so she wouldn't be to tired when Daddy got home. When Brody got home and Lexi woke up we gave Lexi her birthday present...A BIKE! She was so excited. Lexi had only started asking for a bike a few days before her birthday but she would just cry and cry because she wanted one so bad.

Lexi's first ride!

We went out again that night for ice cream and this time we went to Coldstone with Daddy, Josh, Heather, Maddison, Syndal, Kolby, Mike and Michelle. One of the workers always remembers Lexi and exactly what she likes. Lexi gets the blue ice cream (cotton candy) with either sprinkles or vitamins (gummy bears but she thinks they are vitamins because she takes the Flintstones gummy vitamins every day).

Once we got home Lexi was able to relax in her new purple chair and watch Tom and Jerry before bed. I think the day went well and Lexi had a great time.
