38.5 weeks

2 days before I gave birth....she became a rocket!! She was always contorting my belly, but this particular time I looked down and it looked really weird...then Brent was able to get these photos...my belly became a freak show...

I loved being pregnant...for the first couple of weeks after giving birth, I was a little emotional when looking at these pictures:) Now I am okay... I only gained 15 lbs. with this pregnancy... Stella a little more, but I carried her a week longer too...

cousin fun

We took the girls to the Freedom Festival Parade, and were lucky to find this couch for them to sit on....they were dancing and grooving, so cute!!

Stella wanted to buy the girls popsicles, so we stopped at the gas station after the parade and they ate them on the back porch.... Stella loves popsicles!

Pool time in Grandpas back yard

Splash Pad at Riverwoods

When I was in my last month of pregnancy with Billie, I pushed Stella and Julianna in the double stroller over to Riverwoods to play in the water. We rode the carousel and ate ice-cream, such a fun time with those little girls.

Cora's Birthday Party,

Stella loved decorating her own cupcake, and of course eating only the frosting...

A princesss is born...

Brent started downloading Disney Films for Stella, her inner princess was discovered. She will only wear dresses, and particularly the ones that twirl. I bought a very cute summer wardrobe for her that has mainly remained untouched...At the beginning of her princess phase she was sleeping in princess dresses as well. She assigned different princess' to different dresses and shoes.... so funny

I took her to Princess Festival at Thanksgiving Point...She got to meet many princesses..Sara came along as well, we had a great time!

We made our first trip to the Disney Store, she was in heaven....We found this beautiful Belle dress there, it leaves a trail of glitter everywhere we go...she loves it!

Check out her shoes!

Oh the things she says!.....

Stella is so funny, she always has the best things to say.....It's fun because she is like a little pal that you can carry on a conversation with

*after putting on my sweater and shoes, she says, "I'm a lady!"

*she is very aware of the days of the week, as well as where things have come from.... she will ask, "What day is it?" "What store did this come from?" (she really likes Target and Walmart...) "Who gave this to me?"

*after touching my belly she will say, "Billie wants to come out?"

* I asked her while she was sitting on the couch what she was doing, she replied "Just hanging out"

* She always wants to see her #2 diaper, this is what she says, "It looks like a giant meatball" Or sometimes she will just ask to see her meatball.... funny thing is, she loves to eat meatballs too

*We were walking home from church and she said, "Everybody turns into big kids"

*After watching about half of the movie Elf, she said, "Santa Claus was really boring" Needless to say she did not finish the show....

*She is very polite, one of her signature sayings is, "Thank you very much"

*After putting her arms around me while sitting on the couch, she said, "We belong together, we are sisters." Pretty awesome to have your little girl say that to you.... even if it might be some version of a Disney Film...

*Randomly and very loudly she puts cups her hands around her mouth and screams, "jailbreak!!"
