8 Months

Welcome Home Granny!
This past Saturday, Granny moved to Baton Rouge from Washington State. We welcomed her at the airport with a sign and balloons. We are so glad that she is finally here and now we are just waiting for her very large truckload of furniture and "stuff" to arrive this week!


Here comes Granny!

Stella excited to see her Great Granny!

Granny's balloons at her new house!
Cathy Bernhard sent Granny this beautiful bouquet of flowers! Granny just loved them!

Saturday night, we had a great dinner at Mama's house. Stella saw Granny's desert and in her hands went! So, we let her have a little bit of whipped cream. Yum Yum!

April 19th was Marla's 83rd birthday! We had cake and ice cream at Aunt Susan Lott's house to celebrate. Here is Marla blowing out her candles.

Stella loved playing with the ribbon!

Our Little Bunny!

Easter Sunday before church

The Firmin Family
Stella and Mama

After church, we went to the Firmin's house for a crawfish bowl! Here is a picture of Stella and her cousin Ava.

Stella loves water. Her walker has a tray in the front, so I fill it up with water and let her splash away!





Stella has learned to clap and is just starting to wave. We are also working on her sitting up from a laying position. I apologize for the video's being sideways; they are so cute of her clapping!
