I cannot believe our baby girl is ONE! I am overwhelmed with emotion as I think back on where we were a year ago and all that we've been through since then. We have had an amazing year full of laughter and love...and some tears along the way. It has been the best year of our lives and also the most challenging...so many changes, so much excitement! It has been incredibly special to see Emmeline grow into her own little person right before our eyes. I love my little family and I love how we are all growing and learning together.:-) I can't wait to see what the next year brings. We are so blessed and I am so grateful for all that we have and all that we are. God is good!
It's the birthday girl!
Rainbow cupcakes!
Rainbow fruit tray
Fruity pebbles treats on a stick, dipped in white chocolate with sprinkles on top! Mmm...
Rainbow edible paint (I made them with vanilla pudding and gel food coloring) with a handout on how to make it, how to use it and the benefits (each baby got one of these in their gift bag along with other goodies)
Emmeline loved the balloons!
Kids' table with sensory boxes (water, oatmeal and lots of colorful blocks, balls and gadgets!)
