Ellie's first birthday party and Halloween

We had a family party for Ellie on Halloween. Everyone had fun eating the Halloween themed food. Ellie was really the perfect birthday girl! She dug into her cake and made for some great photos! She loved her presents and just really enjoyed having the family around her:) When we were done w/ the festivities we took the kids trick or treating it was a really fun night!

Ellie loving her cake!!!!

Ellie was so funny with her cake at first she was wondering why everyone was looking at her, it didn't take long for her to figure it out! She dug in almost immediatly in fact we had to take the cake from her because I really think she would have tried to eat the whole thing:)
Before




After

Happy 1st Birthday Ellie!!!!

Our sweet little Ellie is "1" years old today! She is really the sweetest little baby and has been such a joy to our family. I admit I am a little sad that we have already reached this milestone but couldn't imagine our family without her!
Some of Ellie's milestones: Crawling all over the place, standing on her own, she has taken a step or two but not walking yet, she waves hi and bye, so far her vocabulary consists of hi, mama, and dada and she loves food!!!!

Evelyn Mae and Ellie June

I thought it was fitting since these girls were born just one day apart to do a special little blog entry for the two of them:) Evelyn Mae was born 10-30-08 and is named after her Great Grandma and Ellie June was born 10-31-08 and was named after her Great Grandma, I thought that was so sweet! Here are a few pictures of the girls over the last year:) Happy 1st Birthday to both of you special girls!!!!!!!!

Emilee comes home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were so excited when Emilee came home safe, sound, and full of stories. The girls were so happy to see their sister. You can see in a couple photos Emilee holding Ellie once Emilee took her none of us could get Ellie away she really missed Emilee it was so sweet to see.

Disneyland with Friends

We have been so lucky to have Disney passes and I take advantage and take the little girls when the older kids are at school. It is fun when we get to go with our friends for both them and me:)

More Disneyland fun:)
