Palm Springs

We recently went on a trip to Palm Springs with my family. Stella had so much fun playing with her cousins and going swimming in the pool everyday! It was really nice to be somewhere warm, and it's been hard returning to the rain. We're looking forward to the summer!

Here are some pictures from the trip!

Valentine's Day

Stella is 8 months old today, but still fits in this size 3 month Valentine's outfit! She may be small, but what she lacks in size, she makes up for in personality! Her new talents include waving, clapping, bobbing to music, and signing a few signs like "milk" and "more"!

Christmas

Thanksgiving

We had a very fun Thanksgiving with the family. Stella had fun hanging out with her cousins (Ayla is 3 and Ya'el is 9 months). Stella started eating solids this month and loves rice cereal. The first picture is of her first taste of applesauce- I think you can tell by the face she's making that she didn't like it very much! It is so fun trying new foods with her and discovering what she likes!

Stella's first snow!

The snowflakes starting falling early this morning, and it was so fun to watch it accumulate throughout the day! I don't remember the last time we've had snow BEFORE Thanksgiving (maybe we haven't had it in my lifetime). We took Stella out for a few minutes to see the snow and captured some cute pictures! Enjoy!

5 months old

Stella is 5 months old today. Wow, I can't believe how fast the time is going by. Here are a few recent pictures.

Halloween

Stella is the one in the dinosaur/dragon/monster costume (I don't know which one it's supposed to be). Aren't all the babies so cute? This is our "moms and babies" group that gets together every week.
