Day 205 Fri Feb 26

Waiting patiently for my 28 week check-up. She was really proud of herself after the doctor let her hold the dopler on my belly to listen to her "baby brudder's heart beep."

Day 204 Thurs Feb 25

Looking a little rough after having a temperature of 105 degrees over the past couple of nights. The doctor said it's "just a virus!"

Day 203 Wed Feb 24



Making orange Jell-O! I added ice cubes to make it set quickly and that's what she's talking about in the video.

Day 202 Tues Feb 23


Not feeling so good.

Day 201 Mon Feb 22


Salad spinners make great hats, too. About an hour after this picture, Stella threw up on the kitchen table...a great start to our week.

Day 200 Sun Feb 21


Hair cut #2 (Her first hair cut was at 6 months old when we got rid of her baby mullet.) I couldn't get her to look at the camera because Elmo was on the TV behind me.

Day 199 Sat Feb 20


Mark put some Tinkerbell wall decals above Stella's crib. They're a huge hit. Everytime she wakes up from her nap, she wants to count them or touch them before getting out of her crib.

Day 198 Fri Feb 19


Mark and Stella vacuuming...hopefully we'll have her trained to do the whole house by age 5!

Day 197 Thurs Feb 18


She does this all on her own...wearing her block's bag on her head.

Day 196 Wed Feb 17

Tasting the chocolate frosting for the brownies to make sure it's good. She kept saying, "Mmmm...chocolate ice cream."

Day 195 Tues Feb 16


Lunch time!

Day 194 Mon Feb 15


Stella, Anna, and Ella checking out the fish at the MN Zoo. I also got a magic bullet for Valentine's Day (thanks Mark!!!) and Stella and I enjoyed a strawberry, banana, carrot smoothie. Delicious!

Day 193 Sun Feb 14

Even the "baby robot" that she's building has to have a dress on. Notice she already has a dress on over her pajamas. Stella wakes up each morning and usually says, "swippahs" (slippers) and "dancing dress please!"

Anna and Stella taking a snack break from playing. Notice in the next few photos that Stella has to be wearing her "dancing dress."

Day 188 Tues Feb 9

As you can see from Mark's face...we started the day off early building a robot out of blocks.

Day 187 Mon Feb 8

Day 186 Sun Feb 7

I just noticed that every picture I took while visiting home was on Chelsie's bed. This was definitely Stella's favorite place to me. As you can see in the background, there was playdough, slinkies, necklaces, etc.

Day 185 Sat Feb 6

After cleaning out Chelsie's closet, Stella had plenty of things to play with.
