Alex turns 7

Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday Dear Alex- Happy birthday to you! Wow! It's been 7 years. Time sure passes quickly. He was so excited for all the events that took place in honor of him. It started out the Friday before with a sleep-over and the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks. We then headed to Grandma Joan's for the Grover Family Birthday Party! Sunday we went to Aunt Patty's to see Julian, Emma and Owen-and made a cake in honor of his birthday and Julian's coming up in February and finally the big day- January 29th. He got lots of phone calls, cupcakes at school for his class and a big Lee Family Birthday dinner. I have to say I think he got it good this year. Here are some highlights...

Alex and Ethan
Alex, Mason and Ethan- after going to bed at 11.30p and getting up at 5.45a and a night of movies and lots of goodies- they were all ready to go to the movies.
Before the movie we stopped to pick up Mikey and headed to the mall- there was a bit of time before the movie started so we played on the mall toys.
Here we all are ready for the movie to start- Popcorn and drinks all around.
We came home and they were famished so we made sandwiches, apples and chips- the healthiest thing they had in 24 hours.
Alex recieved some nice gifts at the Grover Party- one was from Mikey- a watch and Pokemon cards
Uncle Mark giving Alex a good bye and birthday hug!
Lee Family Party- Alex waits in high anticipation to open up his gifts!
Dr. Seuss books!
This was too cute! Alexis giving Alex $$$ from the entire family.
He's raking in the dough thanks to Uncle Christian and Aunt Elsa!
Pokemon cards! As if he doesn't have enough.
Yippee! A new bike- it's a bit big but it will be great when the weather starts to cooperate.
One of many phone calls- uncle jacob called to wish him a Happy Birthday!
His new Pokedex from Grandma & Grandpa Lee! Love it!!
