Lucky Alex - his birthday seems to always fall during our summer trips so he gets to celebrate with the whole family. It's wonderful to have them all with us to share his special day! This last little while he's been obsessed with diggers, trucks, construction vehicles - you name it. So we decided to have a CONSTRUCTION TRUCKS birthday party for him. He loved the attention, the toy trucks, and the delicious cake.At 2 years old, Alex is a VERY busy boy. He is curious, playful, and loves to tease and laugh. He loves trains, trucks, construction vehicles, airplanes, and anything else that is loud/moving/large. He loves to be outside and would probably be content to spend all day every day outside, digging and running and exploring. Alex is such a teaser and loves to torment his big brother and sister (if we had a quarter for every time one of them yelled, "Alex!!!"). Fortunately they adore him and put up with it most of the time. He, in turn, adores them as well and always wants to be in the middle of the action. It's hard to imagine what life was like before our little "peanut" joined us. We love you, Alex. Happy 2nd Birthday!!!
It wasn't simple to pull off a party in the middle of a trip, and at a campground, but Alex seemed to like it just fine.

Everyone wanted to nibble at the Reese's "dirt" in the dump truck.
I love this shot of the 3 of them, and how Haley and Jake are so excited for him.

What good sports all the guys were to wear the party hats!
