Guess who turned 1 ! !


Yes, it's true, our little cupcake turned one on May 23rd!

Her invitation read:

One little candle,
One little cake,
One special birthday
To celebrate
Adelyn Kseniya Grace's
First Birthday!


We celebrated Adelyn's very first birthday with a cook-out and about 20 family and friends that came to wish her a happy first birthday. She devoured her birthday cupcake and even clapped proudly for herself! We are so grateful that she was home with us to celebrate her special first birthday! Below are pictures from the day:

Let her have her cake and eat it too!

Her reaction--"ohhhh!!" She loved the icing!

Now for the cake part


yeah!
At my cook-out


Thanks for celebrating with me!

On a separate note, the day after Adelyn's birthday, May 24th marked 6 months since we met our beautiful daughter in Kazakhstan. Looking back on pictures from November, she has grown in so many ways. Yet, she is so much the same.....her sparkling personality comes shining through each and every day! She is such a part of our lives, we can't imagine our life without her.
