Happy Birthday Auntie Mimi!

We love you Auntie Mimi and hope you have the most amazing birthday this year! Wish we could be there to celebrate but we can't wait to see you in California in February.

Our intention was to snap the first photo.....Stella's intention was purely to eat the sign as seen in the second photo.

Stella is 7 months old today!

We can hardly believe how fast the time is flying by. Stella was born 7 months ago today and we have thoroughly loved every single minute with her. We feel so blessed to have her in our lives.

Thanks all around

We were a little nervous last week when we realized that Stella was growing out of her signature star pajamas--thank goodness her Auntie Mimi had sent them to her in every size!

Here's a shot of Stella in her mom's old rocking chair from when she was a little girl--thanks to Grandco for refinishing and painting it!

Thank you Aunt Jo

Thanks to Aunt Jo for the great toys she brought for Stella in Colorado!

One more cute photo from Colorado

There are too many to choose from!

More Colorado photos

Here are a bunch of shots from our week in Colorado. Stella had a wonderful time with her grandparents, great aunts and uncles, cousins, Uncle and of course her parents. She tried both avocado and banana for the first time. She saw snow for the first time. Lots of firsts on this trip. She was a great traveler and hopefully will be again when we head to Palm Springs for the holidays.

Back from Colorado

We are back from spending the past week in Vail with our family for Thanksgiving. This photo pretty much sums up Stella's attitude during the entire vacation--she was amazing! More photos to come soon...once we sift through them all.
