Nellie's ONE

Since it's been a year living in California, Nellie has turned one. She is our little monster. We had two birthday parties for her. The first one was a Halloween Party with the ward and the second was with family and friends. She had so much fun but she wasn't sure why she was getting so much attention.

But after awhile, she really got into opening her presents. Thank you to everyone that sent her presents. She loved them all. The other kids had to help her because they were growing impatient with how long she was taking!

Nellie loved the baby doll and the hippo. She just had to give them loves. She has had a lot of fun playing with all of her new toys and books. Also, thanks for all the clothes. Nellie looks so cute in all of them.

For Nellie's Birthday cake, she got her very own. When we gave it to her, she wanted quite sure what to do wiith it which was surprising because she just LOVES food. She eats anything and everything. But when Nellie realized that it was all hers she went face first into it. She wouldn't touch it with her fingers so she just sucked the frosting (which we all know, it's the best part!!). When I finally showed her how to eat it she did a little better. Nellie had a wonderful birthday and thanks again to everyone.
