She is physically pretty well "rounded", starting to thin out! I just can't believe it has been a whole year! It seems like my water just broke.... One thing that I've been meaning to record happened back in June... Brent was at a restaurant with Stella and some old man came up to him and said, "Cute baby, he's gonna be a football player!" Brent didn't have the nerve to correct him so he just smiled and said thanks. So funny.
Stella took her first step the last day of her ninth month, by the end of her 10th month was walking very well. She now runs....
Stella LOVES to be outside, she has thrown crying tantrums until we take her out... even at 10 pm. It's going to be a long winter.
Stella survived ear piercing...Brent said I had to wait till she turned a year, well I did it 3 weeks early, so glad I got it done. She cried for about 30 seconds during the piercing and then hasn't really noticed them.
Stella LOVES playing with cherry tomatoes, picks them off everybody's bushes. She had one particular tomato that she would play with during the summer. One time I threw it behind the bushes because it was going bad, well she found it and continued to play with the bad tomato.
Stella has realized that her crib is just not suitable for sleeping, she prefers to play in her crib under the supervision of her parents and sleep right smack in the middle of their bed. We have tried to let her "cry it out" and she cries till she barfs and poops. Yea, we were those parents that used to say, "We will never have children sleep with us....haha"
Stella loves shoes (like her mama) We take them off for bed, then she brings them to us to put back on. She also tries to put on our shoes, so funny.
*loves cheese, anything cheese flavored, broccoli, and nursing!!
Stella is the best, we totally love this stage of her life right now! Brent is really enjoying his little girl and I couldn't be happier (even though I'm still sleep deprived)
Stella really enjoyed her first Halloween, mainly because she was excited about walking around outside at night. (she loves being outside more than anything) I of course loved the variety of candy that Stella collected (actually that I selected). We went to the ward trunk-or-treat as well as walking our neighborhood. She was the cutest bumble-bee ever!
Stella loves her suckers...mainly because they are round (sweet helps) She likes anything round... cherry tomatoes, grapes, balls, balloons, round cheese puffs. It's funny she wants to eat grapes, but as soon as I cut them up she doesn't want them anymore.
I splurged and bought her a pottery barn treat-tote, with her name on it (we call it Stellaton)
