Stella at 6 Month's Old

I can't believe that Stella is 6 months old already. It seems like just yesterday I found out I was pregnant. So last week, we had her Auntie Ericka take a photos and of course we had to have a few wardrobe changes. Here are some of my favorite. The last couple pictures are an outfit that my Aunt Barbara made for me when I was a baby and my mom kept and gave to me when I was pregnant with Stella.

Philadelphia & Gettysburg

A few weeks ago, Adam, Stella and I, along with my parents, traveled to Philly for a mini-family reunion with my aunt and cousins and all of our kids. We also made a trip to Gettysburg to see Adam's dad and step-mom. We had so much fun visiting family that we don't get to see often enough as well as enjoying the sights of Philly and Gettysburg. Stella had her first plane ride and first train ride. At 6 months old, she has already been on a plane, train, bus and boat. She is a lucky little girl that gets to experience a lot.

Stella was such a good traveler. I am so proud of her.

On the Gettysburg, PA Battlefield Tour. Since I was in a wheelchair, I didn't get off the bus.
