1 year old
Our little Eliza-bear turned 1 year old last month. Birthdays have never had more meaning to me than hers because we were truly celebrating her life and the sweet, beautiful person that she is. I can't believe 1 year ago I gave birth to her. We had a fun family/friends birthday party on her actual birthday. I worked hard on her little party but every minute of it was so fun and worth it to me because it was my way of showing that I celebrate her and am so grateful for her life.
We had our family over for dinner and then had our friends and neighbors stop in for dessert, milk and cookies. Eliza had so much fun playing with the other little kids, she is quite social. She is not shy to give out hugs and will poke and step all over anyone too. We made her, her very own mini 3-tiered pinkALICIOUS cake and she loved it, especially the frosting. I thought she would devour the cake but instead she was so dainty and took her time eating a little bit at time.

The day before her 1st birthday she actually walked, like 5 or 6 steps at a time. That was exciting for us. It was only a matter of time after that she began to walk everywhere. No more crab crawl, she wants to walk and sometime even run everywhere. It is so cute. She is such a petite little thing that it seems so weird to see her walking but she loves it and is really good at getting around.
We took her swimming for the first time, in the middle of the winter, to an indoor pool in Kamas, UT. She loved being in the water with her daddy and cousins.
She is very helpful around the house and we have needed to quickly install locks on all of the cupboard doors.
this is my favorite outfit, her little kitty hat and pink fleece vest with her silver ballet flats, SO CUTE!

Happy 1st Birthday Eliza! That's so awesome she's walking too. It so magical watching them take those first steps. Lots of fun and great post Mandy!

The decorations for the party look so cute and the cake is to die for! Your hard work paid off!
I can't believe how quickly time is flying and that it's been an entire year and we haven't gotten our babies together. Hopefully we can come out to Utah this year.
Eliza is so sweet and dainty in all this pictures. I love that she gets to go swimming in the winter!

What fun! But Eliza's got the wrong sweatshirt on in that last picture....
