It’s a very exciting time for Teen Mom 3 star Alex Sekella! In addition to being just a few days away from the first Teen Mom 3 trailer airing (and series premiere date announced), Alex is also celebrating her daughter Arabella’s second birthday today! Although Arabella’s actual birthday isn’t until July 18, Alex took advantage of the weekend and threw “Bellie” a princess pool party with tons of friends and family in attendance. (Not including Arabella’s dad Matt McCann of course)
Alex has been talking about the Big Bellie Birthday Bash all week, starting with this photo she shared on instagram two weeks ago of a tricycle she got as a gift for Arabella:
“Bellie birthday present I hope she likes it,” Alex captioned the photo, which I’m sure won’t be an issue — that’s a pretty rad ride right there! A couple days later, perhaps not even knowing that there was a tricycle to go with it, Arabella was sporting a pink princess bike helmet:
On Monday Alex took Arabella shopping for party supplies, including a “Birthday Princess” hat!
“She’s so excited,” Alex wrote.
And speaking of excited, check out Arabella’s AMAZING birthday cake!
When asked by a fan about the cake, Alex described the colorful creation as “marble with whipped icing cake.”
Earlier today the actual party photos and videos began to role in, and here they are in chronological order with the captions given to them by Alex below each picture and video (although two of the videos were without):
“Her birthday crown”
“She’s excited”
“Let the party begin”
“Birthday song”
“My princess Arabella”
And although it’s hard to compete with the photo above, I think my favorite of all of them may be the last one of the day, which Alex described as “The birthday princess is partied out:”
Kudos to mom for delivering some potent princess party prowess! That’s a damn fine way to turn two!
And just in case you were curious, Arabella was born exactly 100 years after her great grandmother Arabella, whom she was named after! Arabella was born 7/18/1911 and her great grandmother was born 7/18/2011. Pretty neat, huh?
