Coos and Smiles & Everything Nice


Stella has been gracing us with her beautiful smiles and coos now for the past couple of weeks, and even though it has only been two years since Jack was this age, I had already forgotten the lengths a parent (at least Dennis & I) will go to get your baby to smile, hence how ridiculous I sound on the videos here :) It's just the most precious thing though to watch how happy she is. Stella now weighs in at 10lbs, respectively & we're starting to form somewhat of a schedule with her, which is nice. I'm starting to get a little braver with taking both kids out & about by myself & the "good mom days" are starting to outweigh the "bad mom days." Our evenings with Dennis home have also formed into our new normal, so I think we're over the hump now. Stella and I took a little roadtrip last weekend.....we traveled to Minneapolis to visit Auntie Corinne, attend a party for my dear friends Jami & Jake, and to meet Stella's second cousin Braden - Jenny & Chris' new baby boy. (we may have snuck a little shopping in there too!) We made our way over my parents on our way home and spent a fun girls day with Grandma. It was the first of what I'm sure will be many fun filled mother daughter weekends.
