15 months!

Ella is 15 months now!
Thought I'd share her stats and some pics from her birthday party!
Guess I'm a little behind on sharing those :)

Height: 30.8 in.  (67th %)
Weight: 20 lbs 7.5 oz.  (18th %)
She's a peanut!

She has decided that walking is fun!  Yay!  Although, she gets around super fast when she's crawling :)  She jabbers a lot too...guess she gets that honest!  And of course, my favorite thing she has started doing is saying "Mama"!!!  Finally!


Ella got a chair from mommy & daddy.  She also got a lot of other nice presents from our family and friends that came out to celebrate!  We were so thankful for everyone that could be there! 


I sure had a lot of fun making the cake and cupcakes...although my cake was a bit of a pinterest fail...I thought it still turned out alright :)  I decorated with handmade bunting.  I also had hydrangea from our landscaping on all the tables.  And of course pink balloons!  I think that was one of her favorites...she kept pointing and saying, "boooo"!



Ella sure enjoyed her meal!


I'm pretty sure Ella's favorite gift of the day was her dolly from Grandpa Devon!
I think she held onto it the rest of the time!


Her first taste of sweets...Pretty sure she won't ever go back!  She attacks anyone with a treat!



 Clearly she enjoyed this :)


Of course Wyatt had to help...and play with all her toys...

My favorite pic from the day!
