Yep that's one of those onesie extenders - Stella should be the baby on their advertisements for this product because she is making EXTREMELY good use out of these! I'm so glad i got them - because although she may outgrow the length of them her lean little body still fits perfect width-wise into them.
It was yet again another "lovely" visit with Britny down here in FL. As always, the two of us were on the same page daily as far as what we wanted to do and eat each day & night. It's funny how in synch we are & makes the end of our visit seem to come out of nowhere each year ("really? you go home tomorrow :( ")
Thanks to JoNana & Grampy for babysitting one night so Aunt Hadley, Brit-Brit and I could go out to dinner.
P.S. Good Luck on your knee surgery this month Britny!
Britny and I are having such a lovely time in FL this year. And look at this photo she took of Stella - it's one of my favorites now. She looks older than she is in this don't you think?
So i've seen the sign for years for this Petting Farm just a mile down the road from our rental and have always just assumed it's probably super chincy! I WAS HAPPILY MISTAKEN! For a Petting Farm this was really great and will be a regular outing for Stella while we're down here. Can't wait to take all of her little friends here when they visit!
TOP TEN REASONS THIS PETTING FARM WAS A GREAT TODDLER OUTING:
1. Stella gets a Pony Ride right when she enters.
2. You get to milk a cow, kind of sick and fun at the same time.
3. We get a tour guide, if you choose to follow them, we did.
4. Stella gets to chase ducks and try to grab them.
5. Stella gets to feed the cutest billy goats ever.
6. You get to hold the cutest one-week old baby duckling.
7. It's 2-minutes down the road.
8. You get your money's worth: 2-hours and has a train & hay ride.
9. You get a free souvenir when you leave.
10. And the top ten reason why.....THEY HAVE A ZORSE! (see pic below)
And who have thought just two minutes after this photo she's be like this in that photo below.
When we arrived to Florida a few weeks ago Grampy Peter was in the hospital for kidney stone surgery. Long story short - he wasn't able to get over here to the rental house across from us in Kissimmee and was laid up in the hospital in Zephyrhills, FL. He has recovered well and happy to be here now just across from us in the rental.
Here's pics from our visit in Zephyhills. Justin's grandmother, JoNana's mom lived in this house during her retirement years and it now resides in the family. It is 1 hour from our rental and is a charming little house with a backyard full of grapefruit, tangerine and orange trees.
So this definitely goes up there with one of the cutest things Stella has ever received from someone. My cousin Jodi, who lives in Denver but will be moving to N.C. next week (YAY much closer to us now!) emailed me these two photos. It now has inspired me to post a New Feature on her blog called "Stella Around The World" - not sure if anyone else would do somehthing like this but if you know of a local place called Stella's, etc. we would love for you to follow suit with Jodi and send a pic like this to us! We'll post it on her blog.
THANK YOU JODI - you made my day today....no you made my month, this was really really REALLY sweet. And good luck with your move we cannot WAIT for you to be closer so we can road trip it to your place for weekend visits! XOXO your loving cousins, Jen & Stella
