Izzy's First Birthday!

Our girl turned one on Saturday and since our plans of going to the zoo got rained on, we opted for the aquarium. I wasn't too sure if she'd even be interested, but she is always fascinated with the small aquarium at her pediatrician's office. She ended up loving it and was especially excited by the giant fish and swimming turtles. Her dad and I thought the octopus and crocodiles were more interesting. She kept pointing at the fish and saying "What's that?" (her new phrase of choice). Her cousin Noah was there and they had fun giggling and pointing at the fish and each other. Sunday, we celebrated with Brad's family and had a combined birthday party with auntie's Tiffy and Candice. Izzy loved her presents (Thanks everyone), and Brad and I have been playing with them as well. I had decided to made her first B-day cake, and opted for a Care Bear. Brad - with little faith, told me I should probably make a practice cake...well, I ended up making two practice cakes in the month before her birthday, Lol. I'm such a nerd. Brad told me the first one looked like it had Downs Syndrome. This was the final product and I was all too glad to pack all the cake decorating tools away afterwards. We went to St. George a couple of weekends ago and Izzy had a little combined party there with her St.George cousins and Grandma & Grandpa Hamilton. We hung out with the family and it was nice to get out of town for a weekend - even if it was short-lived. Since I've been a blog slacker, here are some pics from Easter. Izzy had a blast with her cousins at Grandma Noss' house. Her grandma and Opa definitely spoiled her and she had so much fun with the Easter eggs she found.
