Ellie is one now. It kind of seems that she has been one for the past month because of all the milestones she has been speeding by. But on the other hand, I can't believe it has been a whole year since we welcomed her into our lives. Ellie has filled our lives with joy and has definitely kept us on our toes. She is so sweet and shows her love through nice big hugs and slobbery kisses. She also is full of energy and is at the exploration stage. She loves people and loves to be part of the action. That's why I call her our little social butterfly.
We had a simple birthday party for Ellie, which included dinner with family, a few presents and cupcakes. It was a fun evening to celebrate and show our love for Ellie Belle.
Kylie of course wanted to help Ellie open her presents.
Ellie loves her play phone that Kylie gave her. She even holds it up to her ear...and everyone else's.
So Brooke and Mike put Ellie's gift in a basket full of gold confetti string stuff. Naturally, it was thrown all over the living room! Kylie and Ellie sure had fun in it.

And now for the cake!
Brooke and I had fun making Ellie's butterfly cupcakes!
She is signing "more". I guess she liked her cupcake!
