What a great month this was! Alex had a fun birthday party at Great Play and we had an amazing trip up to Chicago. We drove the 12 hours to Chicago and the boys couldn't have been better travelers. We had so much fun with friends and family! Alex also went to his first baseball game!!
Alex got a new Dora cup and he was so excited to use it he insisted on washing it himself... for 20 minutes... it was the cleanest Dora cup ever.
We had some family fun time at the pool.
Alex mowed the yard - like daddy!
We had a great time at Alex's Birthday party. Doing the party somewhere else where either people take care of everything is the WAY to go!!!!
