Adrianna has been sick all weekend and today with a high fever. It has gotten as high as 104 but more often is 103 and 102. The fever reducers haven’t been helping much, which is unusual for her. Even though I do like the extra cuddles from her when she is sick, it is times […]

Oh, Nice!
Here are a few snippets of the conversation Adrianna and I had this afternoon on our way to go grocery shopping. Me: Do you want to go grocery shopping? Adrianna: Yea! (smiling and clapping hands) Adrianna: Bus! Seedit? Me: Yeah, I see the bus. Adrianna: uh-muh-mon bus! Me: Oh yes, another bus! Adrianna: Uh-huh! Adrianna: […]
Ring Around the Rosies
It has been a busy couple of days, filled with lots of playing for Adrianna. Yesterday Greg’s old college roommate and friend, Tim Kroeker, visited with us for the evening, along with his family. He and Amee have four children, ages 2-9. Normally she is shy around men at first, but not so with Tim. […]
Itsy Bitsy Spider
We have a little game we like to play with Adrianna where we will sing Itsy Bitsy Spider while walking our hands up her belly like a spider and tickling the whole way up. This often is met with giggles and shrieks. Sometimes she will initiate the song/game by walking her hand up her belly […]
What To Do When Water is Not Available
Adrianna loves to play with water. Specifically, she loves to play with water and transfer it from cup to cup. I don’t think a day goes by where she doesn’t ask if she can go outside and play with her cups and “wateh.” Sometimes it is too chilly for her to play with water and […]
New Scrapbook Page
Finally finished a new scrapbook page. This is from Adrianna’s first week home back in April 2005. Credits: Embellishments (flowers, ribbon, bow) from Misty Cato‘s Beautiful You Kit.
The Ants Go Marching One by One
Hurrah, hurrah. My parents were kind enough to watch our dogs while we were in Chicago this past weekend. I miss them quite a bit, especially after Adrianna eats dinner. We didn’t realize just how messy a toddler can be until we had to clean up the floor afterwards ourselves. Usually the dogs take care […]
No Bye-Bye Tain This Week
Every day, Adrianna talks about how we went “Bye-bye tain. Zoo.” Since this was a couple months ago, it must have been an enjoyable experience for her. So I decided to take her back to the zoo on Tuesday specifically so we could ride the train again. Unfortunately, the train was broken. Poor Adrianna. I […]
Tute Update
The morning after Adrianna got to wear her new, “tute” pajamas to bed, she was still excited about them. When I tried to change her into an outfit for the day, she sternly told me, “No, Mommy. Tute!” So I relented and let her continue to wear her cute nightgown. I was eventually able to […]
Peanut Butter Kisses and Cuteness
Adrianna is such an affectionate girl. She is always giving us hugs and kisses. Today at lunch, she didn’t want to sit in her highchair to eat her peanut butter sandwich. Instead, she wanted to sit on the couch with me. So we sat together. As she ate, she leaned over several times to plant […]
