CeCe has Brewers Fever

Greetings from the Stark family! Yet again, we've failed to give regular updates and for that we're very sorry. CeCe is now FIVE months old and changing before our eyes. Recent developments include:

* She's now sleeping in her crib versus the Amby bed (a.k.a. very comfy baby hammock)
* She's using the bigger, stay-in-the-car carseat

And biggest development of all . . . she's started eating cereal. With a doubling of her birth weight - our little peanut is tipping the scales at over 16 pounds - and her proven ability to hold her head up without fail, we took the plunge and tried out rice cereal. The results are in a short video below. After reviewing, we're realizing that Matt (as usual) plays the role of daddy distraction while Stacey (as usual) plays the role of perplexed mommy. What can we say - we're first timers.

Spring has finally made its arrival to Wisconsin and with that comes baseball season. Since daddy's a die-hard Brewers fan, mommy and CeCe are by default (Opening Day photo below). In fact, Celia is going to her first-ever baseball game next Friday. And she even has the obligatory Brewers baby wardrobe to ensure there's no question as to which team she's rooting for.

Speaking of baseball, we just finished planning a short family vacation for July. The three of us will be flying to Washington D.C. for Independence Day and will then head to NYC for a Yankees/Red Sox game at Yankee Stadium. Now the only question is, whose team will CeCe be sporting at THAT game?

Until next time . . .

Hey! Go Brewers!

The swing is a happy place.

Easter grass is so much fun!

Celia got Baby Elmo from the Easter bunny. Trust us, our five month old truly does like Elmo.


Opening her Easter package.


Warm weather brings the neighborhood together. Here is Matt and Celia with our neighbors/friends Sara and Lucy.


Not quite sure about this "solids" thing.


Of course three hands are needed to feed a baby!



It's gotten a lot better since this video was taken.



Celia hung-out in the stroller while mommy and daddy raked the yard. She was fascinated by the wind and the trees. Here she is talking to them.
