4 birthdays @ 3 years

last year alex had 2 birthday celebrations for her 2 years. this year she had 4 :O

in the philippines: alex celebrated her birthday with cousin ayie

her actual birthday in bratislava

ready... get set... blow!!!

celebration with dedko, babina and dedino

last but definitely not the least

she also had a children's birthday party at klub palisady, a play house in bratislava. the whole place was reserved for alex and her friends: yumi, josh, ninka, risko, and fergal. complete with balloons and all. the kids really enjoyed themselves. alex specially enjoyed jumping on the jumporaine (read: trampoline).

friends

alex enjoyed our almost 2 month stay in philippines. she found friends among her own cousins and neighbors. from time to time she remembers them and asks to see her pix with them. sometimes she even says things like, "mommy, tomorrow when i go to kuya miguel (her cousin)..." or "i want to go to libot."
