Adrianna enjoys digging in the kitchen drawers and pulling out my measuring cups and spoons. She finds them to be great entertainment. Often times, the dogs’ water bowl is involved even though she knows that it drives me crazy and it isn’t allowed. Since she enjoys water so much and likes transferring water from bowl […]

More Sentence Progression
Adrianna said her longest intelligible sentence today. Actually, it was two sentences together. Greg was playing his banjo when Adrianna approached him and said, “Daddy chi-chinge. Poop’s a mess.” Translation: Daddy, I need a diaper change. I have poop, and poop is a mess. She was correct. She did need a diaper change and poop […]
Mimi Mouse
Yesterday evening we decided to go out to eat for dinner. At first, Adrianna did not want to cooperate with me when I tried to put a new dress on her. But once I showed her who was on the dress, she was more than happy to let me put it on her as she […]
Mommy’s House & Daddy’s House
Adrianna enjoys playing in her house. She likes it even more when we join her in the house. When she wants me to come into the house, she calls it “Mommy’s house.” If she wants Daddy to come in, it becomes “Daddy’s house.” She will then hold the door flap open to encourage us to […]

Spider Story
Yesterday Adrianna started crying frantically while she was sitting in her high chair and I was in the other room. It wasn’t one of her garden-variety, got a boo-boo on the finger cries, but rather a something-is-going-horribly-wrong cries. I ran into the room and found that there was a spider crawling around on my poor […]

Today you turn two years old. I am having a hard time believing it. Where did my little baby go? When did she turn into a little girl? I remember when you were a baby, how I would just love to watch you pump your little legs and arms. I would look at you and […]
Why Horses and Stairs do not Mix
Here is a post that will surely add me to the list of “worst moms in the world.” At least I sure felt like the worst mom when this incident occurred. Adrianna has a little horse with wheels that she likes to play with. It was actually mine when I was her age. Mostly she […]
Easter 2007
We drove to Kansas to spend Easter with Greg’s family. Grammy helped Adrianna color and put stickers on some hard-boiled eggs. We had an Easter egg hunt on Sunday afternoon. It was cold outside so the Easter Bunny visited and left presents indoors instead. This was Adrianna’s first easter egg hunt and she got the […]
