Our baby is one! We had a fun party and all our great friends & family showed up to help celebrate!
Isla didn't know what was going on, and she was getting pretty mad at mommy putting on the silly lame party hat for pictures. But luckily Uncle Ryan was near to make sure it stayed on!
The cousins on Micah's side came by for their favorite baby niece
Our amazing friends the Webbs:
Boyfriend Wade and Auntie Sara came down from Idaho for the big day!
Ummmm about the whole blowing out the candle wasn't too big on Isla's list - she just knew that Grandma Gaye had made the her favorite type of dessert: chocolate chip cookies. I came across an amazing recipe for a chocolate chip cookie cake in a Martha Stewart magazine, Janae was a champ and helped me assemble the chocolate chips - i'm so glad that it turned out great...seriously everyone loved the light airy texture!
Boyfriend/BFF Boston was on hand to help me share my birthday cake! These two crack me up, they seriously have a love/hate relationship. But they are always besties when it comes to sharing food!
Present time! Adele was so cute, she picked out her very own present for Isla - princess jewelery, baby feeding toys, and a blow-up balloon of an animal! Too cute!
Bestest cousin-friend Megan was willing and able to assist Isla wherever she needed to go!
The Uncles Blake and Ryan were manning the drinking station
Uncle Travee and Future-Aunt Tiffany came by for some snuggles!
Have I mentioned the Bennett's?? We are so lucky to have found some life-long friends ever since Micah and I were newlyweds, the Bennett's lived right below us in Legacy Village Apartments in Logan, and then we were both so lucky to have our babies 2 weeks apart
Me and my siblings - goodness we're getting old!
Family picture time!
We just love her cheeks :)
Aunt Karla and Grandma Afton came to spoil Isla! This is the lady who Isla gets her middle name from:
And Grandma Afton who was staying away from the camera...too bad we got a quick pic in!
How could we forget Grandpa Kenny with his two ladies: Kairie and Isla - this is where the blue eyes and fair skin come from ;)
We are so glad Grandma Maisie posed for a picture too!
I can't believe she's already so grown up, I can remember the feeling of exhaustion during those first few weeks of her life, then she would coo and wiggle as infants do and that would energize me to keep on going. She's a little person now, giggling, walking, and always asking us "What's that???" as she points at something. She's such a social and happy girl, saying "Hi." to anybody in close range, at grocery stores, in the mall, walking down the street, and if you're one of the lucky ones she'll blow you a kiss. She's still growing into her cheeks, but they are just so kissable I'll be sad when they start thinning down. She's a little miniature of her daddy and I'm just so lucky to have both of them in my life, and even when daddy is at work I can always have him around because of her blue eyes, button nose, and cupid bow lips. How we love her more and more each day.
