Happy Birthday Ellie!

Two years ago I was looking at this tiny little face:


And now I'm looking at this grown up (but still adorable) face:



We celebrated her birthday tonight by having Rob's parents, grandma, and brother's family over. I had my first attempt at an ice cream cake and I think I'm definitely going to be making that a tradition. We also had "cakes" as Ellie calls cupcakes.

Ellie scored on the presents tonight - with plenty of princess apparel (including shoes!), kitchen dishes, and a new doll. She is a happy girl! Her little cousin Avery helped her open almost all the presents and was soo excited about every one of them for Ellie. It was so cute - I loved it.
