Big Weekend

Tuesday, September 9, 2014

Stella recently had a very big weekend!  Not only did she get to meet more of her family members, she also was baptized!
First up, meeting her aunt, uncle, and cousins!  She was so excited to finally meet them!  Sorry in advance for picture overload!







We had so much fun with them and were terribly sad to see them go.  Stella started working on trying to get them to move to Kansas City... No such luck yet, but we will continue to work on it! ;-)

Stella also experienced her first Iowa football weekend!  She made it through the first five minutes, at least! ;-)


Next up that weekend, was Stella's baptism!  Little missy decided that she wanted to make mommy and daddy work... Sooo... We had to stand and bounce her throughout the entire ceremony!


She did, however, love having the water poured over her head!  She may be a water baby after all!



Missy's godparents are my brother, and Bryce's sister.  We couldn't ask for more perfect role models for our little lady.  Stella is awfully lucky!


Even though she may not look so happy in the above picture....

Eventually, it was time to leave.  90% of the pictures we took on Sunday and Monday of that weekend, Stella is crying.  Missy was not feeling picture time.  So, in the picture below, we decided to do "the Stella."  We all turned our faces into our best cry... and naturally, little miss thang stopped crying.  Seriously.  Standard Stella.


Just like that, the weekend was gone.  It was so wonderful having everyone together, but just like it always does, it went by too fast.
