Ella is one!!

Our sweet Ella Bella turned one today! The last year has seriously flown by. What a blessing Ella is and we feel so lucky that God chose us to be her parents. She is an amazing little girl that has brought so much joy to our lives. It is hard to remember our lives without her. She has a sweet, yet spunky, personality that keeps us laughing, and fearful of her teenage years, everyday. She has the most delicious chubby cheeks and a belly to match them. She loves her big sister and does her best to keep up with her. We have truly enjoyed watching her learn, change and grow over the last year.

We had a fun day celebrating the big ONE. After taking Campbell to school we headed to Gymboree for our weekly class. After Gymboree we went home for a great nap (we were up at around 5:30 so this was a much needed nap). After nap we headed up to Campbell's school to pick her up and went to the mall to ride the carousel and do a little shopping. When we got home we had some yummy pizza, sang happy birthday, opened presents and played.

We love you so much Ella and are so thankful for the immense amount of happiness you have brought to our family.
