Baby on Blog

CAUTION:  Baby on blog is smaller than appears! 

Some of the pictures I have posted of Stella make her seem huge, but she isn't really that huge.  The camera adds 10 pounds, you know. This picture of her little bubble face is one of the few that doesn't make her seem like a giant.

Little Stella Jo had a week or so where she was not seen without a little patch of bubbles around her mouth (see photo above).  She is finding her thumb A LOT quicker now.  Talking more and more every day.  And she just started laughing out loud today!  She's also becoming more independent every day.  She's been hanging out on her activity mat all night long tonight, all by herself.  She smiled and kicked, then dozed off for a little bit, woke up and started smiling, kicking and chatting away again.

Sami learned to ride a bicycle without training wheels last Thursday, thanks to her wonderful daycare providers!  She is also starting to go to bed on her own again, FINALLY!!
