Adeline 5 months










Diaper size: 3
Clothes: 9 month
Sleep: You no longer sleep through the night, but you only get up one or twice to eat and then back to sleep you go. You sleep in your crib most nights, but you LOVE your rock n play. Sometimes I just need you to nap at a certain time, and if I put you in your rock n play you go right to sleep :) Its a crutch for mama, I admit it. 

You are still nursing. The pediatrician has given us the green light to start solids with you. I am ready to do that, as soon as our house is no longer fighting the cold virus from hell. So soon, I hope! 

I would like to say that you have to be the happiest baby ever. You always greet me with an ear to ear grin. You giggle and play and are overall just HAPPY! 

Dancing to "Let It Go" with Cooper, his current favorite song. I have it on Video too. Password: Cooper


Baby girl, your rolls kill me!






I found this picture of me when we were home for Thanksgiving. Maybe you do look a little like me??


Is there anything better than a happy baby fresh out of the bath? You LOVE bath time. 



You and Hadley. The sweetest loves around. I know I already posted these photos of you two, but I just love this series of pictures. I know you two will be great friends. You have such similar dispositions. :) 




Happy baby!! Bath time is so fun with you. Again, the rolls.  :)

The dimple! 


You still love watching your brother. 


You love to hold my fingers as you are falling asleep. It is your little way of needing me, but not needing me too much. 

There is something absolutely magical about seeing your sleeping daughter covered in your own baby blanket. You are a dream, baby girl.

Thanksgiving 2014


We ventured over the mountains with both kids to spend time with family for Thanksgiving. The kids were so busy! We loved seeing family. The kids had a hard time sleeping, it must have been due to all the fun they were having. 

Prepare for tons of pictures



Mobius with Nana



Cooper LOVED this "essvader" aka excavator


Adeline and I just relaxed and enjoyed some time together. 



Cooper and Adeline had a night with Nana and PopPop while Chris and I snuck away for sushi and WINE


This may be my favorite picture of Adeline. Ever.


Sugar cookies with Nana



Adeline met her Great Grandma Bev






Cooper ran errands with Nana. This adventure included a stop at McDonalds. 


Breakfast with dad


Adeline also met Great Grandma Layton


Cooper was introduced to Rock Band and Wii sports. He was a fan of both. 


Grandma Anna was able to hang out with her great grandkids






Adeline is named after Grandma Anna's mom


All the excitement was exhausting

Cousins! 



My best friends were all in one place, with our kids!! We missed Jamie , but she was off saving the world. Literally. She was using her pharmacist skills to save lives. 

But what made this day even better? Landis was there!!!! She lives in North Carolina and we rarely get to see her. It was tough to chat with toddlers and babies demanding attention, but this is our life right now. I just love it!! 


Auntie Stone and the sweetest little babies around. 



All six kids!! 




I swear only Auntie Stone could get FOUR TODDLERS to sit and listen to her! 




Megan and I with our sweet little babes. Hadley and Adeline are about a month and half apart. Cooper and Harper (Megan's older daughter) are about 3 and a half months apart. 




Auntie Fuller is magical with the kids. They just love her.


I love these ladies and the men and children they have added to our gang. 

Prepare for several group pictures.
