stella's first trunk or treat

so we had trunk or treat tonight and stella had a blast.... she was so cute in her little fairy princess costume.. she loved getting ready... we put her hair in a little updo and put some glitter on her face and she just kept smile at herself in the mirror.. so she doesn't get the whole trick or treat thing but she loves her pink pumpkin, she held it all night..... her cousins montana and lucy have the same costume so they will be 3 fairy princess's on halloween, so excited....

new york city

this is stella playing in a new york city play ground... she had so much fun... there were so many nanny's and tons of kids.. we then went to magnolia bakery to get cup cakes and milk..... yummy

disneyland

so the snyder family went to disneyland and got season passes, we are so excited.... we had so much fun.... it was stella's first time and she had such a blast... she loves her ballerina minnie mouse. we are bad parents because the first ride we took her on was snow white (the line was short) and it scared her to death... the whole ride is dark with a scary witch... she was clinging on to me for her life... lucky we lifted he spirit up and took her on the small world which she loved so much.. her little hands were moving the whole time.... jereme and i haven't been there in so long, we can't believe how much it has changed.. so anyone who wants to go to disneyland stella and i are in....

so stella loves her little walker that her cousin montana let her borrow.... she is walking all over the house with some assistance of course..she'll be walking on her own shortly. she is a little monkey, she is so fast i just can't keep up with her... i just changed her seats now she is in the britax marathon and she loves it.. she feels like a queen in her big seat. i wasn't exactly sure how to install correctly so i had this lady come over who was certified in car seat safey to help me... she was amazing, she was cute and lived right here in mission viejo. i learned soooo much from her. by the way i had it installed incorrectly and my peg perego was installed incorrectly too for the past nine months, so scary.. now my girl is safe in the car with her mama.. i would highly recommend her if you had any problems or question... well worth the time and money..

k this is jereme's favorite photo of his girl... stella was rocking out to daddy's music on the way to italy... she did so well on the long flight.. we went on a 10 day cruise all around italy this summer.... it was so amazing, we loved every city but our favorite was florence and rome.. so much history, so much to see and not enough time.. we loved gelato and coca cola light's... jereme found a place here in oc that you can get them at sprinkle in newport. i have been there twice and they were out both times but luckily they had plenty of cup cakes.. so yummy.. we can't wait to go back to europe hopefully sooner than later but who knows now that stella is becoming a handful.. but she does love to travel just like her momma...

i have never seen stella so excited.... she was at lucy's 3 year old birthday party... she thought she was a big girl loving every minute. i can't believe how time flys, she just turned 10 months. ta ta for now my girl is having a fit..

i am so excited about blogging... my sister zana got me into this and i can't wait to blog. i have so many things to say and so many pictures to share.. my niece abbey who is 9 going on 18 is so excited for her mom summer to set hers up too.. she is one of us, we had such a fun day today eating at tk burgers, shopping at pavillons, and now blogging at my sister's (jen) beautiful beach house. we are here until sunday celebrating my mom's birthday, so excited. ta ta for now..
