El Bell is ONE!

Eliana (affectionately nicknamed, El Bell) turned ONE in September.  Jamie said it so well when he said, "sometimes I'm so amazed that we get to be her mom and dad."  She is a precious gift.  She is full of fire and spunk, love and kisses, laughter and fun.
Her favorite book is "You are My Sunshine" so we made her party about that and she loved it.  But she really loves life so she was beyond delighted at the party.  It seems like my kid's responses to their cake and the singing are perfectly reflective of their personalities.  Eliana saw that cake and heard the singing and started shrieking and waving her arms and diving at the cake.  Ready to dive in and thrilled at everyone's attention.



 This is my favorite picture - look at her smile!
