easter, first birthday and hair!!






























so, amelia celebrated her first easter this year. what an exciting day that was. we got up, went to uhromi's house for breakfast (waffles!!), and did the easter egg hunt. dada helped amelia fine her presents and gather some easter eggs!! after that, we went to omi's house to get her easter basket, then off to granny's house to get more easter presents. after such an exhausting day, the three of us came home and took a nap.
amelia turned one year old on april 16th! we had a big party for her on 4/19 at the house. tante marlis (karl's aunt) made the turtle cake for us, for her under the sea/turtle themed party! she loves cake and cupcakes, as dada gave her one the morning of her actual birthday :)
do you like the funky hair? mama wanted to make amelia her little rockstar, so this is the look we created! mama loves it!! not sure how amelia feels about it, but i think she looks great!
now that she is a year old, we're just watching in amazement as she starts to become more of a toddler than our little baby. walking, saying more actual words, becoming more independent, and just becoming such a big girl. who knows what this next year holds, but it's bound to be full of "firsts."
