Lexi's 4th Birthday

Lexi turned 4 on March 9th. Her birthday fell on a Monday so we celebrated the whole weekend. On Saturday Lexi went to Mawmaw's house to open presents and then to Backyard Burger for her birthday lunch. Then Mawmaw took Lexi shopping. Lexi loves to shop. We took her to Build-a-Bear. She made her a Hello Kitty. She picked out a sound that sang Happy Birthday. She had so much fun.

We went to church Sunday morning and because she is 4 now she will begin attending mass. Zack said she asked a lot of question. But she was very good. She was very excited to be a big girl and be able to go to the big church.


When we got home we let her open her 1st present. It was a Hello Kitty shirt. She was having a Hello Kitty party so I just thought it would be appropriate for her to wear Hello Kitty. We had her party @ McDonald's. That was interesting! The kids had a blast. I was so stressed out about not having it @ my house, but she loved it. Lots of people came to her party.


Her best friend from Zack's school, Macy, came. Her boyfriend from her school , Jackson, was also there. Along with Brian, Dillon, Kylie, Jake, Ian, and Casey. Of course, their parents and her grandparents were there as well. She received lots of great gifts.

Then on Monday, her actual birthday, I wanted to make her day special. First, we got ready and went to the mall. She wanted to eat a pretzel for lunch. LOL She received a present from the Kidgits program. Then, we went to the Children's Place to look for some dresses. Next, we went upstairs to ride the Merry-Go-Round followed by a train ride.

Lexi begg
ed me to do to do the Spider Jump. I first told her no because it was 7 dollars and I didn't want her to get scared and waste the money. Of course she responded by saying she was a big girl now and she promises that she will not be scared. LOL So I let her and she was just fine. Actually she loved it. You have to be 20lbs to do it. The guy who was in charge of it, said that since he was not paying attention to her like he was supposed to, he would let Brennan do it for free. We then went and got her pretzel for lunch.

After the fun trip to the mall, we headed to the Zoo. I called my friend Kim to see if she wanted to bring her son to the zoo to meet up with us. Lexi was excited to see Jake. We walked around the zoo and let the kids see the animals. Then we went to the gift shop to see what she could find. She found this mouse looking thing that whistles at you. LOL She loved it. We left the Zoo and went home to pick up Meaghan and Zack to go to dinner.

When we got home, we put candles in another cupcake and let her blow them out. She had an awesome birthday! I cant believe how fast she has grown. She is so amazing and I have loved all four years watching her grow and cant wait to see whats next.
