Happy Birthday Alessandra

We celebrated Ali's 4th birthday on Tuesday. It is hard to believe that she is 4 years old!! We started the day off by letting her open her birthday presents. She was very excited to have her own big girl bike and was ready to hop on and ride it around the apartment. She also loved her new ugly doll (who is actually two dolls in one. You can see the two sides of the doll in the pictures.) from Grammie and Grandpa.

Her school had a class trip on Tuesday to a playground so we actually were able to spend most of the the day together. Ali loves climbing up the fire pole and sliding down. Her arm strength is amazing because not only does she climb up the pole once, she does it over and over again. After the playground we headed back to school. We had cake in her classroom which only ended up being 2 other children since the other kids were all sleeping after the busy morning field trip! We also had cake again after dinner. We have decided to hold off on her party until we move into the new house. She is excited to be able to invite her friends over to play in our yard.
