Happy Birthday Lexi!!!

Princess Lexi is now three years old! Oh how we are into the princess theme for this quick witted girl. Lexi is always dressing up as a princess, a ballerina or just in a skirt to be "beautiful". Can we say laundry? She changes clothes a lot but she is so into her character when she does it is hard to be mad at her at all. I love that she is such the comic relief in our family, coming up with the funniest things!!! Lexi is my home body but you can get her to go outside and do anything for "monies". $$$$ She is really wanting to go to school but I chose to teach her pre-school at home and she really loves it. She reminds me as soon as Sadie walks out the door for school that it is her time for school. Lexi is a fantastic big sister to Haylee and my very best helper in the kitchen. She had changed so much over the past year is it amazing.
For her birthday we had a party here at the house with just the immediate family over. She chose a princess castle cake (naturally) and loved eating the pink candy corn effect. (See pictures below) Her favorite present was her new skirt I made her, which she has worn every day since. Her other favorite was the shark bath towel Grandpa and Grandma Bird gave her. And of course it was complete with "pig food" for her piggybank. It was a fun birthday for everyone.

Lexi also went to the dentist for the first time. She had her "Happy Visit" with Dr. Oliverson. All the kids call him Dr. O and Lexi kept asking me why they call him that. She is so timid in that regard for new things. I can't get her to quit singing at the top of her lungs at home but put her in the dentist office and she barley said five words. She was very excited about the treasure chest and the toys she got from it though. I hope this makes future visits more fun for her. We shall see.
