Happy Birthday Sophia (part two)

We finally celebrated Sophia's birthday on Saturday. Here she is eating one of her favorite foods, hard boiled eggs. She can really make a mess out of things!

I was secretly hoping for the same "mess" with her cupcake. I just knew that she would tear into it and destroy it. Boy, was I WRONG! Instead, she cried her eyes out!

She wanted nothing to do with it. I even tried to hold her and she still didn't like it. Oh well, they tasted really good. Maybe next year. (she never ceases to amaze me...just when I think I've got her figured out, she goes and proves me wrong)

So, we gave up on the cupcakes and moved to her gifts.

Tim and I have made a tradition of buying the girls a bible for their first birthday. We buy them one that they will be able to use once they start reading.

Ellen bought Sophia this little Fisher-Price purse. Which is fitting since Ellen has more purses than I do! Sophia loves the songs and goodies that go inside. Great idea Ellen!

We also got Sophia a bear from Build-A-Bear. Ellen went with us and helped us pick it out. Ellen also came up with a great name for the bear...Lucy! Now we have Purple Bear and Lucy!

Overall it was a long week, but I can't believe Sophia is already 1. Time flies when you're having fun and we are having LOTS of fun.
