Stella's 6 months and Aimee's 26th year Birthday Celebrations.

Granddaddy is so glad to see his 6 months old Stella.
Stella is checking out Grandmother.

Stella is in her bouncing chair. Aimee put her in it and she started to bounce right away.

Stella had a cold so she was not feeling too well. She wanted her mommy.

She was smiling while in her bouncy chair.

She is starting to give out and is ready for a nap.

She is in her swing and she took a nap.

We celebrated Aimee's 26th birthday by taking them out to dinner. Matthew and Aimee have been together for almost 9 years.

Aunt Joyce was visiting us from Virginia for the weekend. So she was with us on our trip to Rock Hill.
