Odd Bird, Good Duck...

Stella, my youngest niece is now a whole year old. actually it was yesterday, but I have a lag on getting hold of photos.

I had inspiration for this Friday night, part of why I went to bed so late that night. there's photos from through out her entire first year. I also did it cause Stella has started loving holding photos, so I figured she could have some of her own. I didn't realize I had so many till I went to print them out, but *shrug* I was trying to cover a whole year, and to have photos of her with as many of our family members as possible.




Stella's fave stuffed animal, Mr. Minkey. also in large part responsible for the Curious George theme.




we realized as we gave her the cake that maybe we should have waited to give her her bath after the cake...but oh well, we just gave her another quick one after she finished makeing the royal mess.




and because these pics were still in the camera when we had the party, here's Piper in her taekwondo uniform. there's talk that if she likes it enough she may switch from dance to that...we'll see.

you know the drill Becca, follow one of them to see the rest. and I'll see about that print of the family photo.

I become an auntie again, I've been meaning to post some of the pictures we took when we went to visit my niece, but I keep forgetting. ( Photos )
