Ellie turns 1 !!

Our big girl turned 1 yesterday. It was a fun day, but made me kind of sad too that my baby's getting so big. It doesn't seem like that long ago that she was this tiny little bundle. Time goes by way too fast sometimes!
We really enjoyed conference yesterday. It's amazing how even though conference is for the 12+ million members of the church, there seem to be a few talks that are just for you. Hope everyone else enjoyed it, too!
Anyway, here's some pics (and video!!) of our day yesterday:
The mishap I had while making Ellie's cake. I'm so klutzy sometimes. Cake batter mixed with broken glass is hard to clean up, just FYI! :)
We took a little drive before conference started yesterday to the Raleigh Temple so Connor could see it. He thought it was pretty cool to see where Mommy and Daddy go every month!
Ellie and her new chew toy/baby doll.

Happy Birthday to Ellie! Adorable cake. I'm glad to know I'm not the only clumsy mom in the world. Hugs.

Cute pictures! That's a good idea to just let her at the cake, I bet she loved it!

I love the video with the cake. What a wonderful idea! I think i would like to do that when our little one turn 1. But I don't know if I can wait for a year. Maybe I we will do that for Andrews birthday and just eat it with our hands :-)
