Photos from magazine photo shoot

As most of you know, Stella was selected (thanks to her agent, Aunt Cassie) to be in Pregnancy & Newborn magazine. We went to a studio downtown today for the photo shoot and found out it was for a Halloween article. Stella was paired with 14-month old Brody and was dressed as a 'ballerina princess'. Doesn't get much girlier than that! The headband probably won't be in the final shot - they took it off for most of the shoot. I hope to get some of the photographer's photos in the coming weeks but we'll have to wait until October to see which one they use. Photos from today:

Cruisin'

OK I've been busy! Stella went from crawling on one Sunday to full fledged cruising the next. She's pulling on up literally everything and walking around rooms. It's a full-time job just keeping up with her. Those foam floor tiles I ordered could not come soon enough!! Video coming soon...

Peanut Butter

On her 10-month 'birthday' today, Rob gave Stella some peanut butter. He's been counting down the days to this one, peanut butter being his favorite food and all. Sure enough, Stella loved it, complete with big smiles and happy noises.

HOWEVER, 10 minutes later we both noticed a rash on her cheek and chest. It went away in about an hour but needless to say, she will not be getting any more PB for a while! Hopefully it's just her age and not a sign of a serious nut/legume allergy, although from a bit of web research it could be either one. Hmmm.

Video: Crawling!!

Yep, I go see a movie on a Sunday afternoon and what does Stella do in my absence? Crawls for the first time! Rob took this video on his phone. Atta girl!
