6 month - whoops!

I've been a bad mommy blogger. Just got too busy with life I guess! I go back to school tomorrow, so I figured I'd better update now or never! Adelynn is doing great. She is doing well on her shots - she grew 1.5 cm in about 2 months, which is really good for her. We have another check up with her endo in September as well as an appointment with audiology for her first hearing check. We've been having a great summer and I'm not looking forward to leaving her tomorrow! I have a lot of pictures to catch up on, so here goes:

Catching Up

I know I've been really bad about updating this month. We just had so much fun on my break we didn't want to stop playing to do anything else! I figured I'd take advantage of being home today and get some new pictures up. Enjoy!

Mason's birthday

Christmas sing along at daycare - this is the reason she's still asking me to sing "Frosty Man" in January!

Merry Christmas!

Rocking baby Stella in my old doll cradle

It's a good thing there aren't too many dogs in our neighborhood - she'll be a terror on wheels come this spring!

Her new favorite thing to do is "help" me in the kitchen!

Go Vikings!

We ventured up to Minnesota last weekend with some friends of ours to take Adelynn to her first Vikings game. Armed with a portable DVD player and Elmo and Minnie, this trip went much better than last year!

Getting ready with Peyton at the hotel, and showcasing her new love of wearing socks on her hands...

She had done well all weekend, but broke down on the way to the game

We were a little afraid of how she would do at the game as the Metrodome is VERY loud, but she loved it. She clapped and cheered, and loved the weird Viking horn thing. The people around us thought she was quite cute and luckily didn't seem to mind her walking around in the seats.

She even managed to take a little name for about a quarter of the game...I have no idea how she slept in that place but both she and Peyton got a few winks in!

And then she was up and ready to go again!

Ahhh, nachos, the lunch of champions!

Not game related, but daddy is training her well!

Halloween!

Adelynn had a great Halloween. This is the first time we've taken her out trick-or-treating in the neighborhood and she had a blast. She got so excited everytime someone gave her candy. We only went to about 5 houses and had a heck of a time getting her inside.

Here are some more fall pictures I haven't gotten up yet. First up is our trip to the pumpkin farm with Nick, Emilie, and Peyton...it was 85 degrees out and we lasted about an hour before both girls started getting a heat rash.

2 years (and a week)

It's hard to believe, but Adelynn turned two a little over a week ago. I'm sad to see her growing up so quickly, but love watching her grow and develop everyday. She definitely is a little girl now, no longer a baby. She's learning so much at daycare and amazes me everyday when she shows me her new "tricks". She even has her first music program at daycare tomorrow. Here are some pictures of the big girl on her birthday. Unfortunately, I had a meeting after school that day so we didn't get to do much celebrating except giving her the table and chair set in the morning.

October 14, 2010 - and yes, that's the same onesie as last year. The 12 month size was big then, fit perfect this year!

And here are some pictures from her Sesame Street birthday party. Once again, we didn't get many good pictures, so if you have any, please email them! I swear I'm getting a photographer next year.
