That's right folks...it's already been a year!!! Doesn't seem like that long ago Erin and were wondering what type of personality Stella would have. Now we look at newborns (especially Olivia Engstrom) and are amazed that our "big" girl used to be that small!! This past month has brought some of the biggest changes for Stella. All at once she decided that she could walk and was motoring around the house like it was nobodies business. Then came the teeth. Caroline got her first teeth around 4 1\2 months...so comparably Stella was a late bloomer. But once they started coming...they REALLY came. In the past month she's had to deal with 8 popping through. She's also learning to do more things. She can give kisses now so if you see her coming at you with mouth wide open and saying "AHHHHHH!" that's what she's doing. And just in the past few days she's started giving hugs!
Before Stella was born, Erin and I wondered (like many parents who are expecting their second child do I'm sure) how the heck we could love another child like we did Caroline...but once Stella came there was never doubt that we did. God has truly blessed us with these girls!!!
