Don't Mess With Mini

These are Mini's new shades for her trip south of the border. Hopefully she'll be a bit more endearing when she has them on poolside.

Future Heart-Breaker (le petit coeur du croquer)

No other reason to post these except that Mini is looking cute....

Fun and Games

Mini can actually entertain herself for a while now. Here she is enjoying her little play thing where she gets to look at things and lay below them and smack at them.

Juliet and a Bottle of Wine - 18 Weeks!

18 weeks and still going strong! Mini is now 2 foot 2.5 inches and in the 98th percentile in lengthiness. And a whopping 14 lbs 4 oz....that's more than a pound in the past month and around the 60th percentile. Her head remains mini-ish in the 50th percentile. She is sleeping in her own room now too, which is nice since she has been waking up and conversing with herself before settling back to sleep. Cute, for about 5 minutes.

GO'bama!!

Stretch, Milk Face, and the Cheney Grin

Mini does some serious stretching each morning. Sometimes she has milk all over her face from a night time snack, and then she usually gives us the old crooked Dick smile.

Tummy time in the buff!

New ritual in the bigStefano house. Mini gets nekkid each and every morning for some serious tummy time action. She's getting better at it, has turned over twice (though she can't remember it), and is getting those cool weight lifter neck muscles that we all ogle over. Oh yeah, check out that butt! Not much longer that we can (legally) show that to you.

Mamas for Obama!

Super Tuesday Mama and Mini hit the streets to stump for Obama! It worked - our county voted for him, as did SF and Marin. Too bad our folks down south did not feel the same...but we'll show you!!
