Photo update!

I always try to take pictures so I can have memories to hang on to. So here is our lives in a photo update:

Stassi likes watching tv with daddy even when he is playing his video games

Stassi sits in her boppy at our house, grandmas house, and her babysitters house :)

Grandpa Rick loves Stassi so much!!

We took the pups to the dog park not too long ago and they were so rude to the other dogs and acted like they were too good for them haha

We walked in honor of Baby jax and Jax's mommy held Stassi :)

Grandpa David passed away and it was very hard on our family. 

Lucy loves her baby Stassi. 

Our family of three 

One of my favorite outfits that Stassi has

See how she fell asleep on daddy's knee? Sometimes that's the ONLY way she will fall asleep. 

We lit candles for baby Jax and baby Jones. And it was actually a really emotional day/night for me just thinking about my friends who had lost so much. 

We bought our first car as a family :) and it was extra special because it was my grandpas. 

We went to a marriage seminar one weekend. It was called "laugh your way to a better marriage." It was amazing 

Stassi trying to get the hang of holding her own bottle 

Grandma Leigh with Stassi at work!

I love good quality time with her beautiful self!

We bought a new keurig and kinda made a little coffee station. We have used it every day. We love it. 

Grandma Margie loves Stassi to pieces. 

Stella helps with everything when it comes to Stassi. She even helps me put her in her car seat. Such a good best friend ;)

Lately all Stassi wants to do is stand. Of course she needs a little bit of help but this girl is so good at bearing weight down on her feet. 

Stassis first pumpkin patch and our first pumpkin patch as a family!

I always make him take pictures with me haha

A coworker bought Stassi this dress. And this morning daddy bathed her for the first time by himself and then picked out her outfit. She of course looked ADORBS!!

Stassi was Minnie Mouse for Halloween! 

Morning snuggles are my fave

I had to get glasses. What a nerd lol

Daddy's birthday. Don't mind my freaky face. I was trying to get little stinker to smile. 

I want to make a cactus garden for my desk! 

I also may or may not want to dye my hair this color

I was letting my husband know we got our packages in the mail. What were they? Head lights and the toy story trilogy pack!

When my house is clean it's such a good feeling

Stassi's doctor appointment where she got her second set of shots

Breakfast with her grandma Feliciana, grandpa Juan, and auntie Evelyn 

My absolute best friend and lover

Those shoes are to die!

Our new bed set for our bed came in. And it was supposed to look like this. Sadly it's not as quite gray as it looks in this pic but whatever well work with it. 

Decided Stassi will be getting some uggs. Best part is, this style is called "Erin" I'm pretty sure it was meant to be. 

I made some fajitas for the first time & they were BOMB

I got a presidents award at work which is a HUGE deal and got a big fat bonus with it. So that was nice :)

I'm gonna do something like this on the wall behind my couch. 


Well that's all for now!

Stassi Leighann Saavedra-Medina

Every time I write out Stassi Leighann Saavedra-Medina I think "poor girl, she is going to have a tough time learning to write her entire name."

BUT that's not my point here. So, Stassi is growing up A LOT. I mean, I seriously can't believe it was JUST 3 months ago that she was born. I mean where has the time gone? It feels like there was no life before her but it also feels like she was just born. I remember her birth so clearly. Best. Time. Ever. Seriously. 

Anyway, here are a few Stassi "isms"

1. Stassi ROLLS HER EYES! What? I mean, what 3 month old rolls her eyes at her own sweet mom? This girl...legit rolls her eyes with attitude. 

2. She is active. she's all over the place and she can't even crawl yet, so when she does start crawling I am sure she will be all over the house. 

3. She sneezes a lot actually and when she does, it's always twice in a row. 

4. Stassi can roll over when she feels like it. I myself, have only seen it once. As for her babysitter, she's seen it a couple more times. Little stinker only does it when she feels like it. 

5. Which leads me to SHE ONLY DOES STUFF WHEN SHE FEELS LIKE IT. Stassi is a sassy pants. Period. There's no other explanation other than she is a total diva. Even her babysitter says, she will not do something unless she wants to. And I mean, I get it...but she's three months guys. THREE. 

6. Stassi is a total daddy's girl. She loves me and her grandparents and aunts and everyone, but if she's crying and she has been fed and changed, I can guarantee, like to the point of betting money, that she wants her dad and she will calm down as soon as she is in his hands. 

7. I think she is getting ready for real good. She makes chewing motions and she is always staring straight at our food drooling.  Like no joke. 

8. The sweet girl is teething. She drools so much. 

9. She sleeps through the night. She has never been a bad sleeper. But she sleeps from about 930/10 to 630/7 on weekends. Of course during the week I have to wake her up at 500 (sorry baby girl)

10. She is starting to notice the little things. Like her tongue. Her feet. Her hands. The dogs. She just stares. She's very aware. 

11. She is the sweetest and she smiles and laughs like crazy BUT she has her moments where she has the driest sense of humor. If she doesn't want to smile or laugh she will actually give you dirty looks. What a sass. 

12. She likes music and she likes watching videos on her daddy's phone. She also enjoys anything that's on tv. Especially basketball and football with daddy. 

13. She sits in her bumbo really well. She will whine when she is over being in it, but she does great. 

14. Stassi is officially ticklish. She laughs when daddy kisses her neck or when we tickle her sides and tummy. It's the sweetest little laugh. I love. 

15. She is still in 0-3 month clothes but they are getting a little small. So she is slowly but surely moving up to 3-6 month clothing. 

16. She chews on everything. Blankets, toys, fingers, but especially her hand. She is always sucking and chewing on her hands. 

17. She likes "standing" A LOT. she puts pressure on her legs to stand and as long as you hold her she will go to town going "up and down" - she is seriously so strong. 

18. She likes taking pictures most of the time. She is a total ham. I love it. She's a mommy jr. 

19. She blushes when daddy kisses her in the mornings. Usually Yonatan is in the shower when I wake her up. So I wake her up and change and feed her so when he comes out she's usually awake and ready to see him. He comes over and says hi and kisses her and she laughs and turns her head away and burries it in my chest like she's blushing. It's the sweetest thing ever. 

20. Last but not least, Stassi is like her mommy and daddy in the sense that she can't handle too much time around crowds of people or away from home. When we go to church and lunch, usually by the end of lunch she is just whiny and over it. As soon, and I mean literally AS SOON as we walk into our home, she's fine. She's happy. She's good to go. She def gets overwhelmed with too much company. 

We enjoy our little bean so much. She is the sweetest girl we could have ever asked for. She smiles every time we ask her if she wants a sister, but she just stares at us when we ask if she wants a brother lol so hopefully soon enough, we will have a sister for our sweet girl.
