Zerrell


Zerrell is this wonderful child of mine that keeps me on my toes, makes me laugh everyday and teaches me patients on a minute by minute basis. She is almost one and is walking! she has hardly crawled at all in the past few days! This girl wants to be apart of everything! She is always exploring, NOTHING scares her(THAT scares me!). She loves opening things, drawers, doors, boxes, purses, envelopes. She is always trying to pick up things too and she does! she is incredible strong. with small things she likes to have two thing in one hand, like two straws, or two spoons, she will spend alot of time getting two things into her one hand. She loves moving around things too. The other day we were in a furniture store and she had a blast walking inbetween all the couches and coffee tables. She thinks its so funny to peak out from around something, she laughs and laughs. She is a social butterfly too. She has yet to meet a starnger. She flirts with everyone, even yelling to get peoples attention, especially kids! she goes nuts! Her favorite thing right now is the cat. We have two. the one cat is scared of her, it gets the hell out of the way anytime she sees Zerrell getting close, our other cat(which is old and an outside cat) is SO starved for attention that he lets Zerrell do anything to him, Zerrell of course LOVES this and screams with delight. She is getting so big and loving life! So are we!

Stoops Family


I am creating this page in the hopes of making my life a bit easier and sill staying in conact with everyone. Life is moving so fast that it is hard to keep everyone up to date on our lives. Our little family is doing well. Ted is almost done with school (march 4th) and that will be such a huge relief. As some of you may know Ted is in the Army National Guard. So because of this we will be moving to Virginia for about 4month so that he can get further training. We are leaving April 1st and taking some time to drive back there and see a few things along the way. We will be there until the end of July. Then our plan is to drive back to California and see what jobs are around here for Ted. We are looking forward to going back east and experiencing something new for a little while. Keep us in your thoghts and prayers
