The never ending birthday...

Ya, that's right..Sophia's milked her birthday for almost a month:-) It's been a fun month, though. It started with a special visit from The Wilson Family. Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle TJ & Aunt Maddie came out for Soph's birthday weekend and we had a blast. We went to Goofy's Kitchen to see all the characters, then Disneyland, toured the Queen Mary in Long Beach (okay, maybe that was more for the "grown-ups"?), and hung out one day at our place just cooking out and having fun. Sophia loved every minute and I know our family did too...here's some pics from the festivities!

She was crowned Princess for the Day on the Carousel..looks pretty excited about it, huh?



















Next we got to have a special birthday party with Sophia's friends from her playgroup at the park. It was a pretty low key affair with just some time to play with her friends. The most complicated part of the party was the fondant cake I attempted for the first time with the help of a friend on the other side of the country in North Carolina (Thanks Julie!!).

What a cake! I'm impressed, too. And Sophia is just beautiful, even when frowning. :)
