we decided to celebrate with a little backyard bash
here's the birthday girl!
it's hard to believe she's a year already
but we have all been so excited for her
i love having a large family because the love is multiplied
noah, hazel and olive have been so excited to celebrate their baby sister
today was the nicest day all week
it was perfect
eleanor truly is the sweetest girl
and we are so grateful she is in our family
i made all the kids party hats
i think they look pretty cute
we had pizza and watermelon for dinner
i made two cakes
a small one for eleanor
and a bigger one for the rest of us
i love this girl
here's the "family" cake
it's definitely not perfect but i was pretty proud of it
and it was way easier to frost it like this than i thought
here she is starting to dig in
my attempt at ombre didn't turn out as cute as i thought but....
the kids liked it
eleanor ate a bit of hers and then just started hitting it
silly girl
she needed a bath, for sure
it was such a fun day celebrating our girl
i love her so much
we have been though a lot this year
eleanor truly is the sweetest girl
but as a mother, this has definitely been my hardest year
isn't it funny how that works?
the hardest times are always the most meaningful
eleanor is so special to me
