We had Ella's first birthday party yesterday (Saturday, March 29), even though her official birthday is not until next weekend (April 6). She had an absolute BALL! She was so blessed with many people stopping by and bringing all sorts of wonderful things for her. Matt and I were humbled by people loving Ella so much. It was a fantasitc day for her -- she didn't get fussy once, and enjoyed every minute of the action!
Her new chair from her Uncle Nate, who is COMPLETELY spoiling her, and she loves it. If you can believe it, as soon as she saw this she grabbed the remote for the TV and hopped right up into the chair!
Mama and Nana helping her open her gifts. This year she liked the cards and tissue paper best, but we have a feeling that will change in later years.
Special lady bug cakes that Mama, Nana, & Aunt Nellie stayed up late to make on Friday night! After 2 ENTIRE bottles of food coloring, the "red" icing was still just coral colored at best. Ok, that was being nice -- it was really probably closer to construction cone orange.
Her first taste of cake! We gave her a whole lady bug cake to enjoy....and she did just that. Forget grabbing pieces with her hands, she just dove right in with her mouth! What a champ!
After the cake frenzy, she was whisked up to the bath tub for a "scrub down". The onesie went straight into the trash - there was no hope for it after the orange icing explosion.
