Nora's first birthday!

Wow! Summer is a busy time for birthdays in our family, ESPECIALLY July! How did my baby turn 1 already! Sophia's first year went by quickly and Nora's just seem to vanish! She can be a pistol at times, but she is sweet and so stinkin' cute!

Our beautiful baby!

Nora Ann Shepherd

Sooooo tiny......

The newest addition!
Daddy and another little girl! He's so lucky!

Happy Birthday Nora!!

(Don't touch the flame!)

Nora loves to eat ice cream which inspired her theme!

We got Nora a water table for her birthday. This is how they played with it while I was trying to put it together!

Playing with her new presents!

Sophia's Birthday

How is it that we celebrated Sophia's 3rd birthday this summer! It was so fun to hear what she wanted her decorations to be and what she would like for gifts instead of just mom and dad picking for her!

Sophia and her Ariel cake

(yes, I made it!)

Unfortunately this was the best of these pictures I could find!

That's right! Sophia asked for a hair dryer for her birthday! She loves to dry her own hair after a bath.
