ONE.

Our little Stella turned 1 today! We celebrated last week on Mother's Day (with everyone in town except 2 brother-in-laws and grandpa Carl). Krista made a fabulous cake and took wonderful pictures (that I hope to see soon!). Here are a few of the moments I snapped . . . Krista was the "hired" photographer so better pictures will be coming soon. The cake eating sequence.


Not so sure.


What to do with utensils.


Digging in.


Presley starts helping.


Stella had fun watching her big sister open all her presents (and confiscate a few of them too). Everyone was so thoughtful and generous. Thank you. I can't believe another year has come and gone. We have so much to show for it.

Happy Birthday to Stella! I love the cakes! Did you make them. If you did I am going to feel like such a failure!

No feeling like a failure . . . my sister Krista made the cakes! She is mulit-talented!

Happy Birthday Stella! Her cakes are beautiful, and look how big she has grown. It has been so long since we have been able to see you. Hopefully at seven peaks! Keep us updated on Stella! Hopefully this makes a big difference for you.
