Sydney the Birthday Girl and her Mom Jill

We went to Ella's cousin's (well my cousin too) 1st birthday party this weekend. It was a fun party and it's always fun to get Ella and Sydney together. It will be nice for them to be so close in age...they are just 4 1/2 weeks apart (should have been just about a week apart but Sydney couldn't wait to come out so she arrive a couple months early!). It was fun to see the cake eating, gift wrap tearing, new toy playing action - it'll be a blink of an eye and we'll be there doing the one year birthday thing too!

Cousins! Talking girl talk already.

I'm never eating peas or apple-sauce again, it's cake for me!

On another note Ella had her first dill pickle this weekend and she LOVED it. We had the camera out and ready for her post-pickle grimace but there was no frowny face to be had. She kept coming back for more and complained when I tried to take it away. Her pickle loving Aunt Merideth will be so proud!

Don't try to take that from me mom! Ella's hangin' on tight!

This is good stuff!
