Can flowers be "cute"?


This is Stella's Halloween costume and she seems to really like it. After trying on several costumes and not wanting a witch, a pirate's winch(who dresses their baby up as a winch?), an M&M, a cheerleader, and a bumblebee, we decided on a flower. She is striking a pose like a cover girl, isn't she?
She is so much fun. She is laughing at everything-which makes her parents feel like they are hilarious, babbling endlessly(saying things like "ca-cow", "da-bull", and other incoherent things) and acts like we should know exactly what she is saying. I have always known moms who know exactly what their babies are saying when they speak, but I am not one of those moms. I have no idea what she is saying, so I just repeat it to her as if I understand completely. She loves reading books, dancing, and she is quite the copycat. I have never known someone so entertaining! Kristi (super baby sitter) is teaching her how to sign and she is signing "all done" (waving her hands in the air) when she is finished eating. I'll try to get a picture of this. She's a genius!
