We had a long cold winter this year, so as soon as it warmed up a little bit we headed outside to play. This was the end of March and we still had a lot of snow in front of our house.


It looks like Brielle is an old pro at walking, but don't let her fool you......she didn't start walking for 3 more months :) (Also these were her first pig tails!)

Brielle's First Birthday

Wow it is almost Christmas again and this little girl is almost 2! I have recently been reminded again the importance of keeping a journal and this blog is part of that for me so here I am again giving it a try. Here is Brielle's Birthday!

We started out the special day by taste testing our frosting! She loved it.
She even shared with Ashton!
Then we got all dressed in her special birthday outfit. I had a lot of fun making this for her! Everything except the skirt, we bought that. Brielle's cake face isn't quite as intense as Dallen's, but once she finally dug into her cake she got pretty messy :)

We try to get our kids balloons for their birthday, but we didn't know that Brielle would be terrified. When we brought the balloon out she started screaming in terror. You will be happy to know she is no longer afraid of balloons.



And here is a shot of her first cake. I have loved using the sillouette that I got for Christmas to make stencils for cake. I think it turned out beautiful! Hey I'm no cake decorator okay ;)
