A big day for Stephie and Bobo!

Happy Anniversary Stephie and Bobo! As of today, Bozena has been taking awesome care of Stephie for ONE YEAR! Time flies! Stephie celebrated by giving Bozena a giant decorated cookie, and Bobo was nice enough to share some with Stephie. Yum!Today was also Stephie's first completely accident-free day on the potty. Check out all those smiley faces. Yay, Stephie!!! An even better gift for Bobo than the cookie!

It's great to have friends!

Stephie has had a lot of play-dates lately! On Friday she met up with Ella for lunch at Corner Bakery. At first the girls weren't so sure......but quickly decided it's fun to have a buddy the same age.Then on Saturday Stephie and Lucas bonded over trucks, Lucas's favorite!And finally today at Cami and Ava's house......Stephie showed off her super-human feats of strength. Roar!!!

Fire fighters

When Stephie and Lucas got the call to go to the fire station, they quickly jumped in the car (Stephie gave Lucas a push)...
"Hurry, Lucas, Hurry!"
Whew! Close call! Time for a nap......and a tackle. Oofff!

Painting pals

"Look, who is that?""Way up in the sky???""Oh, it's cousin Kevin!" He drove down to paint J&J's vaulted family room.Stephie and Lucas had a good time watching from the balcony.This occasion calls for some new slippers! Elmo, perhaps?!?

Sticker smiles

Every time Stephie has potty-success, she gets a sticker which she prefers to display right in the middle of her chest. Today Stephie got FIVE stickers total! Go Stephie!So proud!

Random pics

Stephie surprised Mommy and Daddy by going to bed super early tonight (without blog pics...gasp!), so these are from the past few weeks that got lost in the shuffle. Brie snuck into Stephie's room during her nap...Aunt Stephanie's Christmas gift to Stephie: a painting of bob and Bingo!Hanging with Mimi......and GrrrrAllen!No more kisses, Dewey!Yawn! Being so cute is so exhausting.

Hug a duck!

Stephie's new favorite word: duck! Good thing she got a giant stuffed one from Uncle Dan for Christmas!
