Where did the year go? It was just yesterday I was packing my suitcase to pick her up. Full of wonder and hope, I hopped on a plane to Houston to meet and bring home my daughter. Look at this angel. She had us at "waaa." I fell in love hard and fast with this girl.
I don’t know how we lived without her. From moment one this little lady grabbed our hearts and wrapped us ALL around her little finger. We are over the moon in love with this princess.
And today, she is miserable, sick, and just wants to be held and rocked and walked around with. So forget the cake for now, but I promise a decent birthday post with pictures as soon as she is feeling better.
Happy birthday little one.
I love you
I hope your beautiful little girl feels better soon so she can enjoy her first birthday party. Look how surrounded she is by love!
Happy birthday little one!
*sniff* So touching…Happy Birthday baby girl!
Aw, hope the little one feels better soon.
A sweet, bright-eyed Happy Birthday to you, Ellie.
It sucks that she has to be sick on her birthday
I’m sure you’ll make it up to her, though.
It’s funny – most babies are very generic looking, but I can see “her” in those baby pictures.
Happy Birthday, Ellie!!!
Happy Birthday to Ellie! I’m so sorry she and Parker are sick. I hope they feel better soon! Good luck finding a new nanny.
I love how Hadley’s nail polish matches Ellie’s outfit. Sweet picture.
Happy Birthday, Ellie. I hope you feel better soon so you can enjoy your Birthday celebration. Being sick on your Birthday is so not fun.
Poor little thing.
Happy birthday Ellie! Feel better soon.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

Happy Birthday!
And she is just as lucky to have you. Get well soon little one
Happy Birthday to Ellie!! Bless you for what you do!!
She is absolutely beautiful and has been since day one. I have to say again that seeing her makes me miss Zariah even more because the baby pictures are so close in looks that I think she would have grown up to look something like Ellie. Maybe it is like watching her grow up through your life, I don’t know, I am rambling….Happy Birthday sweet baby!!
Happy Birthday, Ellie. And get well. Soon.

Oh man, that’s too bad. I hope she is feeling better soon. Happy Birthday Ellie!
Bless her little heart, I hope she feels better soon. Happy Birthday Sweet one!
Look at those precious little baby lips. I’m almost more enamored of baby lips, than baby toes. ALMOST!
Hope she feels better soon!
Happy Birthday beautiful!
Awww, I’m so sorry she isn’t feeling good. At least you will get a lot of snuggly time in with the birthday girl.
