Wearing a pink dress?

Yep - that's Stella! Wearing one of Sophie's dresses! I couldn't resist! You will be happy to know that this is the one and only time ive put clothes on her (so far...) But, she really didnt seem to mind! She's so cute!

Spots

I found Stella laying on the couch like this and i jsut had to snap a couple pics. (Plus, i like how these pics show off her spots!)

Miranda Lambert anyone?

As you know, Miranda Lambert is one of my favorite Country singers!
My friend Monica and i got tickets to see her in concert at the Target Center! Here are just a couple pics of us at the concert.

  

A car ride

The other day, Zac asked if we could go and pick up Jacob. We decided to bring both Sophie and Stella for a car ride (Stella seems to like going for rides in the car). Sophie sits in her usual spot on my lap in the drivers seat, and Stella sat with Zac. When we were waiting for Jacob to come out to the car, Stella decided she wanted to check out the dashboard. She jumped up and made herself right at home. Once we got moving though, we couldnt keep her on the dash - now that would be considered 'destracted driving'. I couldnt imagine what kind of ticket we'd get for that, but we werent taking a chance, that's for sure!

Stella, Stella, Stella

Since Stella is so cute and little, we cant resist taking pictures of her... Here are some more!

This was after Stella's vet appointment, where she had to get shots.
She wasnt feeling too good and passed out on Shane's legs!

This was too cute to resist!

She loves to lay on her back on my legs!
She has such a soft tummy!

We took this picture with Zac's hand in it to show how little she is.



Happy Birthday Grandma

For my grandma's 84th birthday, the family decided that it would be fun to go away for the weekend. We went up to a hotel in Brainerd that had a pool and a few waterslides so the kids can swim.

Zac had two baseball games so he and Shane werent able to make it, so i rode up with Sherri & Ryan. We got up to Brainerd around 3pm. Everyone was hanging out in the pool area and some were swimming. We decided to put our suits on and join in the fun!

Around dinner time, we decided to order pizza and hung out in the hotel lobby. This was so nice because everyone could hang out and enjoy eachothers' company. 

After dinner, we surprised Grandma with a cake! Everyone gathered around and sang 'Happy Birthday'. Grandma really enjoyed herself and especially letting all the little grandkids get into the frosting (This has always been her special treat)!

After we had cake, we pulled out the games. Sherri and I brought some games for everyone to play. Grandma especially liked playing chinese checkers!

It was so much fun that we decided it would be a good tradition to start and will do it every year for Grandma's birthday!

Stella's one and only litter mate

Since Stella has gotten comfortable navigating the entire house, there are times that we 'misplace' her, or cant find her. We look HIGH and LOW only to find her under our bed snuggling with this... My slipper! Now, everytime we cant find her, we just look under the bed for the slipper, and she is found curled up with the leopard print slippers. I wonder if she thinks they are her litter mates???

Can you tell the difference between Stella and the slipper?
