Since Alston wouldn’t tell me what he wanted for his birthday, his dad and I each came up with a gift idea that we thought he would like.
Daddy thought Alston would like a pet fish.
Meet Spongebob the Beta fish…
We set his aquarium up before the party and Daddy thought we should go ahead and introduce them before everyone arrived…
Needless to say, Alston and Spongebob are the best of friends.
I thought Alston would like the Cars movie and I let him pick out this shirt online from Gap Kids.

On his real birthday next month, we are planning some special family time with the birthday boy. Hopefully we’ll take a family trip to the zoo, baby brother included.
