So it has been a while since I have posted and for those of you that we have not seen for a while so much has been happening Stella read her first book, wrote her first
term paper, and created her first hypothesis... OK maybe I am just exaggerating a little bit! However some days I feel like she picks up on these amazing things and have no idea where she learned them! Besides Stella's ever growing desire to be more independent, we have had success going potty in the "big girl toilet" twice already. Now I am sure that it was all coincidental, but I figured I don't want to hold back any desire to want to go to the bathroom all on her own! Our other big feat is our first Spanish phrase; "
Hola me
llamo Stella" translation "Hello my name is Stella!" Thanks to Dora the Explorer the
Hola part was no problem and now anytime she says
Hola Stella responds with "
Hola me
Llamo Stella." So I am pretty certain Stella doesn't have any concept of what the phrase means, but we keep practicing any way! I can not say that Stella has not shown typical toddler signs as well, like our trip to Home Depot last night that was cut short because Stella decided that she was too big for the regular carts and there were none of the race car cart left! Lets just say I am sure the ENTIRE store heard Stella's objection! Here are some pictures to help everyone get their "Stella-fix"!
Smelling the summer flowers!
Stella's silly face!
The slide Gramy and Grampy put on the back deck at the Lake just for me!
Movie Star in the making!
