Family Pictures

A couple of weeks ago we took some family/ Sienna's one pictures. We were lucky enough to have our really good friend, Erin take them for us. She is amazing! She has kind of become the unofficial family photographer. (She has taken Sam's wedding pictures, Andi's family, Kate's family, Sienna's newborns, Megan and Bubba's engagements and more!) She took our family pictures at a local park and Sienna's one year pictures at the studio in her house.
Here are some of my favorites:

Sienna's One!

I can and can't believe that my silly baby is already one! It feels like it's gone by so fast but she definitely is getting to be a big girl. My next post will be my favorite pictures from our recent photo shoots and some of the awesome things Miss Sienna can do now. We started off the morning going early to Grandma and Grandpa's house to set up and take a nap for the birthday girl. I decided to try and make cute cupcakes for Sienna and a big thanks to Nick for helping me at 10 o clock at night to make them. I think they turned out pretty cute, however the kids had semi permanent joker faces due to the red frosting...lesson learned for next time.


We started the party but eating Costco pizza and hanging out with all the family and friends that were able to help us celebrate...and we sure did miss the ones that weren't able to be there!


After lunch we opened up a lot of presents. Sienna was very well loved and she loves everything she received. She started and ended opening presents with mommy, but in the middle she decided that she needed to have some Aunt Rachel time. I love that she loves Aunt Rachel so much! The others kids were sure to do their best to help open and then play with all Sienna's toys afterwards. :)


Once all the presents were opened we sang Happy Birthday and ate the cupcakes. She was not a fan of the candle and then mommy accidently blew a little wax on to her finger so I had to console her a little before she dug in. I'm thinking the drama before kind of made her hesitant to go crazy but she ended up thinking it was pretty delicious.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl. We love you!
