Big Girl
be mine
We had a great Valentine's day. Stella was very happy to clap most of the day. This is her new trick and she is so pleased that Mom and Dad can do it with her too. We went out to dinner and Stella was very good. She really loves to watch all the people and was even leaning back in her high chair to peer over at the couple in the next booth and give them some smiles. She knows no stranger.

Victorious
Stella was really glad to have gotten her hands on the camera case the other night. She loves to look at and take possession of anything new. Camera case, wallet, calculator, spoon etc. She also loves to stand at the patio door.
On a side note, we went to a Baby signs class last week. Stella is a very vocal little girl and she typically talks with a scream. Well she decided she wanted to 'talk' to a younger boy there and she scared him! He cried for quite a while. We think maybe she's a good candidate for using sign language to let us know what she wants.

Stella and Gracie
Daddy's little girl
Daddy let her hair dry in a mohawk-do. Though her hair doesn't need much sculpting to go upwards! We tried to capture it here, but she wasn't cooperating with the camera. You can see though she loves her daddy. She lights up whenver she sees him. I have a feeling this is someday how she'll get whatever she wants.
Standing Alone
This is a very common occurance these days. Stella loves to stand on her own while playing with something. She'll quite often squat down to pick up something and stand back up to play with it. Several times a day now she's been taking a few wobbly steps forward before reverting to a crawl to get where she wants to go. We are practicing walking. She's so strong and is now 10 months old.
What have you got Mom?
Stella loves Millie
Stella and Millie are best buds. At least Stella seems to think so. She loves to crawl on her any chance she gets. Millie has caught on to the phrase 'out of sight out of mind' as she will get up and hide herself from Stella as Stella approaches.
Millie does a wonderful job with her though and puts up with a lot.
