Alex is all about the lizards, snakes and creepy crawlies this year so mom and dad surprised him with a Scales and Tails party! Austin, our amazing party host, came to our house along with a few of his best friends - a large selection of creepy things! He brought snakes, lizards, scorpions, spiders and turtles, just to name a few. Alex and 12 of his buddies got to learn all about these guys and then have some close and personal touch time! It's even possible that maybe mom MIGHT have wrapped a 160 pound python around her neck!
For the finale, Alex got to pick out his very own lizard from mom and dad. We, er um I mean, he, chose a blue tongued skink who he named "Zelda". I nicknamed it "Devil" because she/he hasn't warmed up to us yet and is a little feisty! Hissssssssssssss!
There were a TON of pictures taken (thanks Holli!), so I will only post a couple of the best ones. When I asked Alex how his birthday was he replied "Mom, it was AMAZING!" Hmmm, wonder where he got that word from? Happy birthday son. We love you so much! Thank you for being such an "amazing" boy.
