Stephie and the Busy Bee

Stephie laughed at a toy for the first time today. The Busy Bee vibrates as it flies to its flower which was apparently very funny! She laughed at it four times in a row. Over the past two weeks, Stephie has really woken up to the world, focusing more on objects in the distance and staying awake for LONG periods of time. So cute!

Newsflash: Youngest reader ever!

Stephie officially joined the Guinness Book today by becoming the youngest baby ever to read a newspaper. Grandma Julie helped a little bit. She rounded out the day by hanging out in the Bumbo for a while.

Portrait Innovations, Part 2

Stephie smiled pretty for the camera for her 3-month old photos today. Mommy LOVES Portrait Innovations!

Race for the Cure

Stephie and Brie had a great time at Stephie's very first Komen Race for the Cure. There were some happy times...

And some serious times...

Times for tricks...

And lots and lots of pink!

Brie was a much-admired pink doggie and got her photo taken approximately 100 times by various groups of adoring fans. (In case you were wondering, we did it with pink KoolAid, and no, we have no idea if it will wash out, but at least she has a delicious cherry-watermelon scent!)...

Brie and Stephie even made a tortise friend along the way.

We ended the day with a visit to Grandma Haley on our way back home.

Gramdma and Grandpa

Stephie is so blessed to have so many wonderful grandparents who love her!

Stephie and Harper

Stephie went to the Soulard Coffee Garden today with Grandma Michele, her friend Christine, and 4-month old Harper. Stephie's future first boyfriend???

The many hats of Baby Stephie

Stephie had a good time at the zoo yesterday. Activities including trying on silly hats and hanging out with the fishies! As you can tell, Stephie was quite alert throughout her visit.
