It is hard to believe but little Eliza turned one year old last week! She asked for cupcakes for her birthday, so that is what she got. She also insisted that her candle be gaudy, so we did our best, though I think we fell well short of her expectations.
Since she had never seen something like this before, she started by eating off the fruit. She quickly realized that the frosting they were in was pretty exciting too. We had to break a piece of the cupcake off and feed it to her before she realized that she could eat that part too. She really seemed to enjoy it.
Opening gifts was also something she didn't fully understand but was excited about. Her first gift was a book that she kept looking at between presents. Maybe we should have waited until she was all done with the book before moving to the next gift, but she is one so it isn't like it really matters. She had a lot of fun, and her momma felt like it was a good birthday for her little girl.
Thought we should get some pictures of her posing outside. We tried to post ones here that show off all the teeth she is growing. Plus, we took these outside since we have had the best week of August weather imaginable for Dallas.
Hooray for our wonderful little Eliza. We love her so much and have had a wonderful first year. We look forward to them only getting better as they go.

Wow, she is growing so much. Hair long enough to brush and put barrettes in soon. So, she asked for cupcakes, huh? I think she really asked for a rib eye cake and you just misunderstood her. What a little sweet heart. Love Opa.
