Adrianna is adding some new repetitive sounds to her growing “vocabulary.” While her favorite used to be ma-ma-ma she is now throwing in some more consonants and she mixes it up a little bit. It sounds more like babbling but yet closer to real language since it isn’t the same sound over and over. She […]

Crawling is creeping up
Adrianna is getting closer to crawling. Last night, for the first time, she had both her bottom and her chest up in the air at the same time. Once she accomplished this, we have seen it cropping up over and over both last night and today. One step closer to actually crawling. As she pushes […]
Crying Baby and Chloe’s Contribution
I was peacefully sleeping last night at about 1:00 a.m. when Adrianna’s cries split the air. Loud, screaming cries to let me know that she was not feeling too well. I hate this whole teething thing. So I groggily stumble out of bed to go to her room. I brought her back to my room […]
Adrianna’s First Tooth
Well, it is official. Adrianna is cutting her first tooth. She has been really fussy the past couple of days, which is so out of the norm for her. My mom suggested I feel her gums for a tooth to see if our teething hunch was correct. Sure enough, there is a sharp little tooth […]
Baby Jekyll and Little Miss Hyde
Yesterday we, along with Shad and Lynette, spent a good portion of our day wandering around the Mile High Flea Market. I scored a brand new board game for $1 and Greg bought some kind of game as well for $2. Not too bad. Even though we didn’t purchase much, it was a perfect day […]
Two solid meals a day
I started Adrianna on two solid meals a day now. Fruit is also now a regular part of her diet. She really likes bananas and pears. The bananas smelled really good, so I actually got brave enough to taste them myself. They didn’t really taste like bananas to me, but they were pleasant enough. Aren’t […]
My plans for this weekend
I am so excited. I have decided to go visit my family this weekend and do some scrapbooking with my sisters, who will also be visiting my parents. Greg is going to stay here and catch up on some relaxing. And since Adrianna will be with me, I imagine that he will also catch up […]
Sounds I love to hear
While in church on Sunday, during the worship part of the service, I happened to overhear Greg singing. I just had to stop singing myself and listen. I enjoyed it very much and couldn’t get the beautiful sound out of my head for quite some time. It got me thinking about sounds that are special […]
Weekend spent in Kansas
We decided to spend the past weekend in Kansas with Greg’s family. We hadn’t been out there since May and we heard that Kristi would also be visiting, so we figured it was a great time to make the trek out there. I am so glad we did. We arrived Friday evening. We hadn’t even […]
6 Months Old
Can my baby really be 6 months old today? My, how time flies! Half a year already. It sounds like such a long time, but in reality it has come and gone so quickly. Adrianna has changed and grown so much in 6 months time. So have we. Nothing that is within Adrianna’s reach is […]
