Stella

Ahhhh Stella Grace. She is the reason I am writing this post at 1:02 a.m. She is our "high maintenance woman" as Wes calls her. In her defense she has acid reflux and she is uncomfortable often. She takes medicine twice a day which does help her but it doesn't take away her symptoms all the time. She is also very much a Mommy's girl. I do love that she loves me and wants to be with me, but I sometimes feel that I can't be with Mya as often because of this. Stella also goes from one extreme to the next. When she is happy, she is VERY happy. She loves to laugh and smile and it completely melts my heart. She rolled over from her belly to her back at 3 weeks old and has done it many times since then. She also sleeps through the night and if she wakes up it is only once. Tonight is a different story. She is currently in a sling and I'm swaying while I type. LOL.

At our last appointment she weighed 8 pounds 8 ounces and I'm looking forward to finding out how big she is on the 3rd. Just like her sister, she likes the swing and bouncy seat. She also likes her pacifier a little more than Mya. It really soothes her when her belly hurts. I think the sucking distracts her for a minute. She also likes to look right at your face and make facial expressions. While she is a little more work currently, she is a very sweet baby and we are also madly in love with her!
