New Crib!

Adelaide's mattress came so I got her crib all set up! I had bought the cutest bedding set for her, all organic cotton etc...and it was so fun to put it all together. I will have to get a better picture of her room now, as there are curtains and everything to match. It was my last big purchase for now, but I'm so glad I spent the money and got what I wanted. The crib itself is very beautiful as well, my dad got if for us when I was still pregnant. It can turn into a bed later when she gets bigger. Now we just need to work on decorating the walls in her room.

I think she really likes it! She has taken 3 naps in there so far today, and all without any problem! The first time I kept the pad from the swing bed in there, and hung the little toys from it as well, so she would recognize sights and smells from when she napped in the past. She seemed very comfy, and laid there looking at the flowers on the bumpers and trying hard to grab them. It was very cute. I put on the music box and gave her a kiss and her pacifier, and she fell asleep really quickly each time. Now I have removed the pad and she is still fine. The hardest part now will be keeping the cats out of her comfy bed!

Little hands

I just think it's so cute how Adelaide clutches her blankie when she is sleeping. I have been putting her down for naps in this really cool swing bed thing that I got her when she was first born. It bounces and swings so it's really easy to put her to sleep in there. She is getting pretty big for it now, so I have ordered a mattress for her crib and we set it all up in her room, so as soon as the mattress comes I will try to nap her in her own room instead. I don't know if it will be hard for her to sleep in there instead, as this little swing is so cozy and comfy.

18 weeks!

I had skipped a few weeks in my weekly updates of her couch picture...but I'm back at it again, and I feel like she really does look older than the last ones. She is growing so super fast. She just gets cuter and cuter too.

Baby and her Daddy

I am never good at picking the BEST one...so here are a bunch of really cute ones =)

Nothing but giggles

I just love this little girl so so very much. I spend so many hours with her, all of them really. She makes me smile a million times a day. She is always so happy to see me or be held. I never want to put her down. She really runs my world. And then daddy comes home and she gets so excited to see him. She always gets mad if he doesn't come right over and pick her up. She is so full of love, and I am for her. I really don't know what I did before she was born. I never knew anyone could be this happy and so in love with such a little person. She really is my world.

Wrightwood

The day after the wedding we made the drive up to Wrightwood to see my Grandma and my Great-grandma's sister Inez. It was great for Adelaide to meet so much of her family, and we had a great time. She also got to meet one of my dad's best friends in the whole world. It was a good trip and we really got to see a lot for such a quick trip!

Wedding Bells are Ringing

We went to Southern California for Adelaide's Grandpa Don's wedding. It was so much fun because she got to meet her uncle Jeremy, and a whole BUNCH of family from Myles' dad's side. The wedding was beautiful, and we had a lot of fun. Adelaide did a great job the entire time, no problems at all. I think we need to get all of the travelling out of our system now while it's still easy! She slept fine in the hotel, the car, and anywhere else when she got tired. I'm so proud of her!

Grandpa Don and Ming-te

This is Adelaides first time hanging out by the pool. I dipped her toes in but she didn't really like it. Maybe it was too cold?

The wedding in the church. Myles and Jeremy are up there, but it's hard to see much from this picture. There was a floating Jesus - can you see him?

Cutting the cake!

The "kids" table (best table in the house!)

Punki in her dress. I had to put a onsie under it at the end because it got really cold for her. She was so pretty!

Punki's first flight

This was Adelaides first time on an airplane. We were flying down to Long Beach for Myles' fathers wedding. Adelaide did such a great job! She actually started laughing out loud for one of the first times ever when I was kissing her!! I nursed during the take off, and landing, and she did great. I was WAY more nervous about everything than she was.

Singing voices

Adelaide found her voice! Now she uses it most of the time. Not so sure about the volume control so far. She is still learning!

Nannabird and Jamie

Two of my very favorite people in the world came to visit and meet Adelaide. My best friend Jamie ( I usually refer to her as my cousin) and her mom, my auntie Lisa. Jamie came all of the way from South Carolina. It was so great to see them, and they took such good care of Adelaide and I while they were here. We did lots of shopping and eating. We also rode the sky tram for the first time. It was really exciting. Everyone loved Adelaide and she had quite an audience. The view of the city from the top was super amazing, but it was cold and rainy that day, so the views weren't as good as I know they would be on a clear day. It was sad to say good-by, and having them here reminded me of how good it feels to have people that you really love close by. Hopefully we will get to go visit Charleston in October so Adelaide can meet Jamie's husband and her brother (one of my other favorite people in the world) and his family. I hate that we all live so far apart. I want our kids to grow up together, so once she starts having them, I guess we will have to find a way to make it all work.

Hotel Room

This was in Lisa and Jamie's room at the Kennedy School. It is such a neat hotel, and I just like how this picture turned out.
