We celebrated Alex's 33rd birthday on May 29th (instead of June 1st) because we had Allie that weekend. Sadly, I had to think about what year he was born in order to figure out how old he is, which is no different than when I try to remember how old I am! I just realized now that I am turning 34 this year - ugh! - which makes me older and wiser. Do you hear that Alex ;)?
We invited the fam over for cake and ice cream - at least I think it was just cake and ice cream since I don't remember any headaches associated with making any other food! The kids are always up for cake and ice cream although they really prefer ice cream and icing! Allie bought Alex a bag of chocolates that were her favorites (but not necessarily Alex's favorites!) and Katya bought Alex a Laker's T-shirt. Alex is a very hard person to buy a present for and usually he takes everything back that you get for him. Katya remembered him taking back the shirt she bought him for Christmas and I told her that she had every right to tell him that she was no longer going to buy him presents if he kept returning everything. So after presenting him with his gift she said to him, "Daddy, if you turn this back I am not every going to buy you a present!". To his credit, even if he didn't like the shirt (which I think he did), Alex kept the shirt. Awesome!
Here are some pixs of the family - mostly Tony because he is so darn cute!
This is Alex opening up his surprise pair of pants from my mom! Not really a surprise because my mom has also learned not to buy anything for him without prior approval. He actually ended up taking these pants back and he picked them out so I guess I shouldn't feel bad about him taking back my presents!
