Stella*R Stories: July 2011
http://stellarstories-reid.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. Your latest obsession is dressing up in multiple layers of clothing! It is so funny to see what kind of outfit you'll put together, though there are a few articles that you clearly consider to be "staples." Your pink polka dot skirt and three tutus are always a part of the ensemble. This particular evening you were wearing three bathing suits around your waist (under the tutus), your rain boots, your favorite turtle t-shirt from JI. And your safari hat from Everlee's. Obviously, th...

Monday, August 29, 2011. Your First Hurricane: Hurricane Irene. Our meteorologist, Colin Hackman. Showing the storm's approach. More scary-looking weather images. Thank goodness the neighbors were here to weather the storm with us! Just part of our water supply. Needless to say, we were very lucky and the storm made a last-minute turn and missed hitting Wilmington head-on. We still felt the effects of the storm, however: massive gusts of wind and tons of rain. Fortunately, we never lost power and...Most ...

Sunday, February 19, 2012. We took you bowling for the first time this weekend! You had a great time even though you were ready to be finished playing by the 6 th. Frame of the first game. Daddy played with you while I was simply a spectator (though it appears I'm hiding a bowling ball under my shirt)! There is nothing like a pink tutu, black leggings, and bowling shoes to make a fashion statement, though! What a great bowl! You had three strikes and one spare during this game! High fives from Mom! This ...

Tuesday, September 20, 2011. We are so grateful to be able to live to close to the ocean. We love just because able to hop in the car for a quick trip to the beach wherein you can run and play.

Monday, June 20, 2011. If this doesn't say "SILLY POLKA DOT. I don't know what does! You and Daddy have nicknamed each other " polka dot. For some silly reason, and I think this video captures your silliness perfectly! How lucky you are to have a daddy who plays with you and can be silly with you. I hope that you always feel confident enough to dance freely and openly, without a care in the world! Friday, June 17, 2011. You held onto the boogie board and seemed to love every minute of it! I had planned t...

Friday, January 27, 2012. Last night you felt your baby brother move for the very first time. We were sitting on the couch snuggling before bedtime and you decided to sing Baby Phoenix a song. You were singing the ABC's and he started kicking around a little bit. I asked you if you want to feel Baby Phoenix move, and you excitedly said, "Yeah! Sunday, January 22, 2012. The Sun'll Come Out.Tomorrow! One of your favorites to sing. Friday, January 20, 2012. What a fun year you have had! Tower, participated ...

Saturday, May 26, 2012. Today was Stella's first dance recital! She's been taking ballet since October in anticipation of this big day. Of course we knew that the chances of her actually dancing were slim, but she did so well and had so much fun. We were all so proud of her poise and presence on stage! Before dress rehearsal with her friend, Lily. Waiting to begin dancing! Sweetest audience member EVER! Pre-Show Photo with Daddy! Congratulations on a GREAT show! Proud Papaw and Tessie. Funny story that m...

Stella*R Stories: December 2011
http://stellarstories-reid.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2011. Happy Birthday, Daddy! Daddy only had two requests on his birthday. One request was to go to the beach (it was a BEAUTIFUL day) to take pictures for Baby Phoenix's room, and the other was to go to Home Depot. I didn't think these requests were too hard to fulfill, and yet we never made it to Home Depot! That's okay; he went the next day and bought a new grill. Overall, I think Daddy's 30 th. Thursday, December 29, 2011. We spent Christmas Eve with Uncle David, Masako. Great Gra...

Stella*R Stories: April 2012
http://stellarstories-reid.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 29, 2012. What a fun-filled weekend we had! Friday we went to the Relay for Life to walk for those who battle cancer. We walked with the Millers and with our friend, Liz. It's so nice that the walk takes place so close to our house because we don't have to drive and battle the traffic and parking. I figure the more exercising I do now, the sooner he'll come. If not, at least we're passing time and trying to be healthy! Ready for the party - and showing off your new nail polish! When we got ...
