Long time, no Stella update

Just got back from a work trip to LA. It was a seminar conference that Dreama and I wanted to attend, so with "Grangela" living only 6 miles from the seminar location, we thought we would take advantage of the free babysitter.

Things went great the Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Uncle Brandon arrived on Saturday, we had a nice steak dinner, and Stella stayed up late (too late, until about 9:30pm) so Grangela could show her off to some friends.

Lack a sleep made for a grizzly baby, and on Sunday, Stella endured a pretty big meltdown.
Upon return to Vancouver (after receiving some nice abuse from United Airlines for having the audacity of traveling with a baby), Stella seems to be back to her normal self.

I think that she was going through withdrawal from not getting watch any hockey or soccer while in LA. Look at how happy she was today, getting to watch the Champions League game with her Grandad and his Italian friend Alberto, who was choked to see Inter Milan get knocked out.



Four English teams in the final 8 again. Too bad that the National team stinks.
