Day 186

Mommy and Me

Adeline, here is a picture of you and I from today. The most exciting part of today was watching you crawl around more than just a few 'steps.' It was so nice to be able to get some work done in the kitchen and have you get to where you wanted to be without needing to be the one to move you. You are becoming quite proficient at crawling (only when you want to do it ;) and also at getting yourself up on to you knees without using your hands.

Oh ya and you started signing puppy today...but rather than patting your leg, you pat your chest or belly or even my leg. It is just tooooo cute.

Here is proof that you have finally started crawling...not that you have done it for anyone other than Mommy yet.

I just love how your tongue sticks out when you are working hard! Daddy and I are soooo proud of you, you have been working so hard to crawl and now that hard work is paying off.

Hey Dad, can I have that camera?

Day 128

Happy Mother's Day

EIGHT!!!!!!

Just to let you know, tooth #8 popped last night! Hopefully that helps the teething trials.

Day 124

Adeline and Mommy

This will be the last picture of Adeline and me when I am wearing glasses...I am going under the laser tomorrow and could not be more happy about the decision and excited to not have to wear or have glassess pulled off my face again.

Daddy is going to take over the blog for at least tomorrow, as I am not allowed to use a computer for at least 24 hours after my surgery. But he is funnier and a way better writer than I so this may be a welcome change for my many, many (all 3 of you) faithful readers ;)

Adeline Brushes Her Own Hair

Every time I change Adeline's diaper I give her the baby brush and immediately upon receiving it she shoves it into her mouth and proceded to brush the inside of her mouth with it. Well today rather than thrusting is directly into her mouth Adeline first turned her head and rubbed it on her head. When I first saw this I was more than a little confused; so I took the brush back, brushed her hair a bit and then gave her the brush again. Again this time she took the brush in her hand and rubbed it on her hair (or almost). I soon realized that she was also trying to brush her own hair just a little bit before again shoving the brush into her wide open mouth. I am going to have this girl changing her own diaper, feeding herself and driving a car in now time now, I can see it already ;)

Day 108

Shopping with Mommy

Adeline was a great helper during grocery shopping this afternoon. She was happy for most of the trip and chose all the best produce. She even sat in the cart like a big girl...and even held on while we were driving around (something she doesn't usually do).

Day 102

Spring Swing

We got Adeline a baby swing for our play set in the back yard and she LOVES it!  She gets to relax and swing and Mommy gets some yard work done and we both get outside to enjoy the warmer, sunnier weather, it's the best of both worlds.  

Day 84

Clapping Cups

I have been looking and looking for something that Adeline can hold in her abnormally small baby hands and clap together (as she is not able to make noise when clapping just her hands together yet). Well apparently I needed to look no farther than my kitchen cupboard because plastic cups are the answer! She LOVES the cups; they are colourful, they are stackable (and more importantly knock downable), there are enough of them that Mommy can play too ;) and the very best thing of all...they are clapable. This toy is brought to you by IKEA and cost all of 2 buckaroos for all 6. Fun and cheap, I love it too!

Day 63

Mommy and Me

Adeline let Mommy do strollercise today, but as soon as it was time for the weight training she wanted to have some mommy time...therefore Mommy's weight training was lifting Adeline up and down, up and down. More on kisses from Adeline...she was holding out on mama today, but freely gave open mouthed, tongue kisses to both Carter and Jack in the pool today. I guess it's better kissing babies than mama.

Lovin My Toes

Adeline was enthralled with her toes today. It may have helped a little bit that there was a string hanging off her leg warmers that she kept trying to pull at ;)

After Strollercise today we went swimming...while watching this video imagine Adeline doing this in the pool, she is becoming quite the little swimmer.
