Alex started the day with video games, because who would sleep in past 7:00, right? But not too long after that,a couple hours or so Alex was lucky enough to have Aunt Kathy and Uncle Dale come over, so he got to open his presents first thing! Lucky, ducky!
Right after presents we had doughnuts (his cake wasn't even baked yet). Somehow I didn't get a picture of Alex having one, but here's Timmy.
Alex's good and long time friend, Donovan, came over for awhile to hang out for Alex's b-day. Donovan was going to spend the night Friday but Alex got sick so it didn't work out. It was a good bonus to the day to have his friend over.
And the cake, Alex wanted (what he calls) the original Lego man. So there is my best effort at it. :)
We're not sure why but Henry has never really liked birthday candles being lit or the candles being blown out. Tonight while Randy lit the birthday candles, as we sang to Alex and then while Alex blew the candles out - that is what Henry was doing, covering his ears under the table. I wonder what he is thinking.
The best part of the day to me was, at the end of the day unprompted Alex said, "This was a great day!" with a big smile.
