What a Gem

Adelyn telling stories from one of her new favorite spots...don't gasp in horror--there is an adult nearby not shown in the photo :)

Like her mother, she laughs at her own jokes!

Despite fighting off her first big sickness, Adelyn still took the time to keep us entertained this week. She had a bacterial infection with a fever so spent a lot of time snuggling with mom and dad. She is back to full strength and busier then ever. She seems to have grown up a lot over the past few weeks. Jon has taught her how to clap and wave, which are two of her most favorite things to do now. She is also not as content to sit an play with her toys as she would rather be holding your hands and walking around the house chasing Murphy (which he loves of course). She is also exploring sticking her tounge out at us in a very adorable way. Still no crawling even though she can get on to her hands and knees. If desperate she can pull herself on her tummy but would prefer someone grab her hands and help her up. Lets see, new foods have been yogurt, prunes, and broccoli; all of which have gotten a favorable response. Her 'turtle' smiles and contagious laughs have warmed our hearts all week!
