Adrianna will be walking soon. She cruises adeptly around the furniture and anything else she can grab and pull herself up with. She also still enjoys playing with her mailcart, which doubles as a little walker. She pulls herself up and pushes it around the living room with a big grin on her face. When […]

Cannot Get Enough
Some days I feel like I just cannot get enough of Adrianna. She is growing up so quickly, right before my eyes, that I want to savor every moment. I want to take in every baby noise, every facial expression, and imprint it in my memory forever. I want to memorize the smooth curve of […]
Chicken Pox Day 8
Well, the chicken pox (or whatever they were) are mostly gone. They never did get oozy, blistery, or scabby. They pretty much remained little, red pimple like sores that only appeared on her torso, in her diaper area, with only a couple on her thighs. Then, they just started to disappear. I am glad they […]
Giddy Up!
This week, Greg put together a little wooden rocking horse for Adrianna. It is so adorable! It even matches the furniture set we bought her (we got the horse for free because it took them so long to deliver the crib). Adrianna still needs a little help riding, but I am sure it won’t be […]
Chicken Pox Day 3
Another day stuck at home. No reason or excuse to leave today. We just had a lazy day today and spent it watching tv, playing with Adrianna, and messing around with web design stuff online (after Babyanna went to bed). Not too shabby. Adrianna was a little fussy today and seemed more sleepy than usual. […]
Chicken Pox Day 2
Day two of Adrianna’s quarantine. I think I would go crazy if I didn’t get to leave the house, but *thankfully* I had a dentist appointment this morning. (I really like my dental hygienist; she is only 2 days older than me and fun to talk to.) I was also able to visit Archiver’s this […]
Chicken Pox
Yep, little Miss Banana has the chicken pox. At least that is what the doctor suspects. They haven’t fully blistered or anything, so it is still hard to tell, but she sounded pretty certain. The doctor said she wished she had some students at the office today. With the introduction of the chicken pox vaccine, […]
Another Kansas Weekend
We just got back from a long weekend in Kansas, where we had traveled so we could visit Greg’s parents, sister, and grandparents. They were practically begging us to come so they could see Adrianna, saying they couldn’t “wait for her birthday in April” to see her. hehe. Who could resist? We had a good […]
The Transformation from Babyanna to Kosmo-Anna
(As in Kosmo Kramer of Seinfeld fame.) First, Adrianna helps me get her bath ready. Next, we lather up the hair. Wa-la! Kramer hair!
The Many Nicknames of Baby
Adrianna has had many nicknames already in her 10 months of life. Here are a few that I can think of: Tree Frog (this one is from when she was a newborn and would cuddle on your chest with her legs curled up so she looked like a little tree frog) Little Birdie or Little […]
