I am kind of OCD about what goes into my/Ella's body, so I have been making a lot of healthy treats and meals lately. So for her birthday party I made some of my favorite healthy treats....( banana bread cupcakes, choco-avacado cupcakes, agave choco-chip cookes, and my favorite, coconut cream shooters! ) I have a lot of fun experimenting with healthy recipes, and it makes me happy that Ella likes them too! Her cake was a banana cake (no sugar or gluten) topped with chocolate coconut cream frosting (again, no sugar!) She loved it, and the looks on her face made all the work I put into it worth it. We had a great turn out from family and friends, I felt so much love and appreciation that day!!! I love love love my family and truly feel so blessed to have so many people there for us.
I am not one of those mom's who says "I wish she would stay little forever"....I am quite enjoying the journey of watching her grow and develop, each new phase has something that gets me excited. Right now she is standing up on her own, and she likes to show off and do little dances while she's standing. Literally the happiest little girl you'll meet. Love you Ella Sophia!!!!
I'm not supposed to say who did the pic's, because I didn't give her time to edit them before I posted them, but "someone" was so kind as to take pic's at the party, and got these cute shots before the party began.
Ella with her birthday cake. These faces are absolutely priceless. After the party had kind of wound down, I saw that Ella had found the remnants of her cake and was digging in for seconds :)
Ella opening gifts with daddy. She is spoiled!! I told people no gifts and this is what happens!!
