She is a petite little thing, but she is growing like a weed!
So much has happened since the last report. Grams Waite came out the end of February to spend a little time with Stella before her blessing. We spent the week shopping and hanging out. We went and picked out her blessing dress. My mom did a little modification on it to make it what I was wanting for her dress. It had a white satin sash with a white rose fabric flower on the sash and I wanted a pink sash. I wanted her to have a white dress, pink sash, pink tights and a cute pink flower for her hair. She was adorable! My dad flew out just in time to spend a little time with his first granddaughter. He just loved her up all weekend long. It was so cute to see him with her and she just giggled and talked every time he played with her. The blessing was beautiful and it was so great to have all our family and friends there for such a special occasion.
After the blessing Stella hit so many milestones with in the past month. She finally started to laugh and giggle at you. She smiles all of the time. She absolutely loves to have her diaper changed. She will go from screaming her heart out and then I lay her down on the changing table and she puts on a huge smile on and laughs at me. She loves to stare at her feet. She is enthralled by the TV and hates to take her eyes off of it. I dont know if that is a good thing or a bad thing, but it is nice to be able to put baby Einstein on and get some cleaning done while she is entertained. She is very easily entertained and is such a happy baby. Stella also had her first haircut. She was rocking a mini mullet, but since I was getting my hair did, I decided to get her hair evened out so that it grows out even and not all different lengths. With in the past 2 weeks her attitude has completely changed. I think that she is teething. She has this new thing where she rubs her toung on her gums a lot. She holds her head up and stands for about 10 seconds at a time. She still sleeps through the night. She goes to bed about 9:30pm and wakes up around 8am. I am starting to put her to sleep earlier to hopefully get her to sleep longer. She usually only takes 2 naps every day. They usually are 3+ hours each though. She is such a great sleeper. We are so spoiled to have such an amazing well mannered baby. She is growing up so fast. I have just loved watching her grow and we love having her in our family.
So without further adieu, here are a few pictures of our adorable baby girl!
I love this picture. Sitting up like a big girl and smiling!
First time I actually did something with her hair.
The first day with good weather and we got outside. This was the first time we actually used the stroller.
This is what I wake up to every morning. It just makes my day to see that adorable little girl!
