Stella's Birthday #1

Yummy cake!

Happy birthday #1!

Stella on her actual first birthday, while we were at Disneyworld. We celebrated a week later.


Out Stella/Stellie/Cinderstella turned 1! Oh how we love her so! Some of the things we love about Stella are:
-she is a snuggler! Her favorite place to be is snuggled up on someone's shoulder (see photo above)
-she smells EVERYTHING, and I do mean everything! She won't eat food until she's smelled it or play with a toy or snuggle up on anyone/thing without smelling first.
-she has started sleeping through the night more consistently
-she is a thumb sucker but rarely does it unless she has her blankey wrapped up in her little fist with the corner of the blanket touching her nose
-she loves to play with play food, babies, and the toy kitchen we got the girls for Christmas.
-she doesn't like tv
-she likes to line up chairs and take turns sitting in them.
-in the morning, she won't get out of the crib until she hands everything to you: her blankey, her quilt, and anything else that might be in there.
-she has 6 teeth, two on the top and four on the bottom,
-she still doesn't have much hair but oh! those blue eyes!
-loves peek-a-boo, where is Stella?, and being read to.
-I have put all of the girls outgrown shoes in the bottom drawer of her changing table and she loves to open the drawer and try on all the shoes. This will entertain her for quite some time!

and lastly,

-she is a joy to have in our family! We love her so much!!
