Favorite Things

Here is the latest and greatest things that Anders and Adeline like to do at home.

Anders: play in his toy fire truck with all his "friends"...while talking on the phone. Thanks Uncle Preston and Auntie April. He also loves to paint, jump on the trampoline, fall into bed and into his truck...and read books (elmo and farm books are the favs right now).

Adeline: loves to grab her toes, sit in her bumbo or exersaucer, role from tummy to back, smile at mommy (cute as a button), and be held.  She has also started to laugh at her brother.

Happy Birthday Daddy

My sweet, fun, wonderful, smart, good-looking, creative, awesome husband and the best daddy turned one year older this past weekend.  We had a great time celebrating him on Sunday. We LOVE you.

Adeline 4 Months

Our little baby girl is now 4 months!!!! I love this age.  She is full of smiles, finding her toes, laughing, talking and exploring.  Adeline's favorite thing is still being held, especially if it means standing on your lap (strong little legs), but yesterday we tried out the exersaucer and she seemed to really like playing in it too.  Adeline has rolled over from belly to back a couple of times and we are working on back to belly. At her 4 month well visit Dr. G measured her at.....

• Weight: 13lbs 3oz (50%)
• Height: 23.5in (25-50%)
• Head: 16in (50-60%)  

Our special goal between now and our next well appointment at 6 months is to sleep through the night. We love you princess Adeline.

Snow Day

A snow day this past week equaled a big smile from Anders and plasma car races with mommy and daddy.

Becoming Buddies

Fun in the Snow

When we were in Iowa for Christmas there was so much snow.  We had a good time adventuring out into what we only see a couple of times a year.  It is funny to me...what used to be such a big part of my every day winter Iowa life has now become a novelty.

Getting ready....bundle up it is cold!

Not in Texas anymore....the 4th attempt up my parents' drive we got stuck. Living in the South now for 10 years has started to show.
