eloise and her FIRST birthday!

Yes, it was over 2 months ago now that sweet Eloise Joy turned ONE years old. But, such a big occasion still deserves a recap with beautiful pictures of our sweet baby girl.

How to describe my beautiful daughter at one year old...

She is stunning. I know I'm biased, but she really lights up a room and has such a way to make others smile, with her beauty and her loving spirit. Her sweet hair is starting to curl around her ears and the base of her neck and those blue eyes are just beautiful.

She loves well. She reaches for people with superman arms, wanting them to hold her and making them feel welcomed by her.

She's tall, of course. Still off the charts in height and over 90% in weight at 25.2 pounds. We've already got her in 2T clothes and size 5 diapers, following right along in her big brother's footsteps.

She is determined. Meaning she wants what she wants when she wants it and will let you know. We are hoping this trait serves her well as she grows but at the moment we are trying to teach her that she can't always have what she wants.

 She is an absolute delight. Her smile contagious and her giggle is just awesome. She has brought so much joy to our lives and we are abundantly blessed to have her as our precious daughter.

 Here she is on her actual birthday, May 28th, enjoying her birthday cupcake!
 And, for her birthday party we had a very girly bash with some sweet candy for take home treats.




 Auntie Sara made the cake which was absolutely stunning!



We had such a fun time with friends and fam.




Birthday girl, getting ready to enjoy her special cake!


Don't mind dad trying to get frosting on mom. You can see how thrilled I was.

All in all, a very happy 1st birthday for our sweet girl!
