Tonight we went to Guitar Center to pick up something for Greg and then to the mall for me. As were were leaving the mall at about 7:30, it was already mostly dark. The moon is full tonight and shining brightly, so I pointed it out to Adrianna. She likes pointing out lights on the […]

Here, Let Me Wipe Your Face
Adrianna and I spent another delightful afternoon at the zoo. Adrianna’s favorite animals today were the birds (buh) and elephants (Tsa-sa). While we were in the Lorikeet Adventure so we could see the birds close up, another little girl spotted Adrianna. She was a cutie. This little girl had just gotten her face cleaned up […]
Bzzzzzy Bee
Adrianna loves to be tickled. She is especially ticklish on her neck. We have a couple games that we play to make it more fun. The first game is Itsy Bitsy Spider, where I will sing the first line of the song while my hand acts as a spider and crawls up her tummy up […]
Pushing and Pulling
I posted last week about how Adrianna will not let me lie down and insists on “helping” me sit back up whenever I attempt to. Lately, she seems to enjoy helping me sit back up so much that she will then push me back down onto my back, just so she can help me back […]
The Key (Kitty) Says, “Aah-hhh”
One show that Adrianna will somewhat pay attention to is America’s Funniest Home Videos. She especially likes the babies (baba), dogs (dah!), and kitties (key). Everytime she sees one of those three, she will excitedly point at the screen while she announces their name. Sometimes when pointing out dogs or cats, she will identify them […]
No Rainbow Poo for Adrianna
What is it with kids’ fascination with eating crayons? One of our favorite stories of our growing up years was the one that involved my younger brother, Brian, eating crayons and ending up with rainbow colored poop in his diaper. Now Adrianna has entered the stage where crayons look very enticing as something that should […]
You Know You Order Pizza Too Much When…
…your 17 month old toddler excitedly announces, “Zsa Zsa!” (Pizza) when she sees the pizza boxes arrive.
Talking on the Telephone
Adrianna still loves the telephone. Whenever she hears one ring, no matter where we are, if the phone is on tv, or what ring tone is used, she will happily exclaim, “Tzsa sa!” On Thursday, I worked in the evening instead of the morning and called home to say hi to Greg and Adrianna. Greg […]
No Rest for the Weary Mommy
Sometimes after a long day of work, I will lie down on the floor while I play with Adrianna or watch her play with her toys. Lately, however, this doesn’t last for long. Apparently, she cannot stand to let her momma lay down on the job. She will “help” me sit back up by grabbing […]
Fever Fears
Adrianna’s fever has just been so scary. There have been two nights where Greg and I were so fearful for her that we got dressed and ready to run to the emergency room, just in case. Such a hard decision! Do we go, do we wait it out, do we give her more tylenol or […]
