Birthday Girl!!

Eliza's ONE!!!! Here it is a month after she turns one and I finally decide to write a few words about my sweet, sweet girl.

First I have to say one fun fact about Eliza's short life so far. In the twelve months she has been alive she has been in twelve different States. How many people can say that. Here they are in case you want to know. Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Arizona, Nevada, California, and Texas. Kind of fun.

To let you know how life has been since Eliza turned one, I figured I might as well document the cake smash for everyone's pleasure.


This is Eliza's cake of butterflies.



First taste of her cake.

When she was all done with her cake she promptly pushed it away.


Opening her presents.
I love her face as she peers in the bag.


Here are a few things Eliza loves.

water, bananas, oranges, grapes, dirt, dirt, and more DIRT, playing "horsie" on her parents' knees, tissues, friends, cousins, Grandma, music, dancing, playing peek-a-boo, bath time, the beach, running/walking everywhere, macaroni, drinking water, marshmallows, blowing kisses, "kissing" cheeks (she thinks that pointing is kissing), balls, flowers, her blankie, and reading books.






We sure love you big girl!!
