E's First Birthday

Happy 1st. Birthday, my sweet E!

We were planning to have E's birthday party at the beach, but storms that were blowing in made that impossible. So we decided to have it at Grandma V's house. It worked out nicely.

I made a Lemon lime jello cake for her, and I love how the frosting colors turned out. It looked great till it started to melt! 






While the storm clouds were blowing over, I asked Titus if he would help me get some pictures of E outside because I had been planning on having the whole birthday party outside. The wind calmed down for a little while and I snapped away. I love how they turned out. It was a little more work this way, but I think it was definitely worth it. I think I would have been disappointed if I wouldn't have gotten some pictures outside. 









I had to get a quick shot of all three of the kiddos. This is the best one out of the four I took.


This is the funniest one! 
SMILE!


She was not sure about the candle to start with, but Daddy made it fun. 























I think she was impressed!

































































K wanted to give E a kiss...


She might have wanted to taste the cake too...


"Mom, E touched my nose!"



 We had a very fun filled day.

I'm so thankful that God has blessed us with you, E!

E's Ten Month Pictures



E. Claire's ten month pictures.













Oh, sweet, sweet baby girl, sometimes I wish that time could stand still and that you could stay my baby forever. But, part of the sweetness comes from wondering who you will become as you grow into a lovely young girl and lady.

I won't wish for you to stay little,but
May you always stay just as sweet.
I love you a bushel and a peck and a hug round the neck. -Mama

My Boy

My Boy

 Recently you have been coming to me randomly and wrapping your arms around me and whispering: "I wuv you mama." 
You melt my heart completely.

May you always keep your gentle, loving heart, Son.

I love you too! -Mama
