rice cereal

Today we tried rice cereal for the first time!! Adelaide did surprisingly well. Although most of you will say that by the looks of her she was born to eat. My sweet little butter ball. As I write this she is sitting next to me telling me all about what I should say. 


Here's a little summary of how the cereal experiment went. 

She likes it!
And this is just a glimpse at how strong my little dolly is getting. I love how she uses the end of her arm and not her elbow to sit up like on the other arm. I'm excited to see how she goes about learning all the other things she'll learn in the next 6 months and for that matter years to come.

blooming like the flowers

Our little one is blooming like the flowers in my front yard! I can't believe how fast she's growing and learning. She'll be 5 months this week and we'll be starting cereal soon. Makes me proud and sad at the same time. Sorry this blog is a little long, I just needed to post some new pics and my photoshop savvy husband is at work. 
These two are just some that dad took at home. Just thought they were cute.

We LOVE bath time!

Starting to grab at things with her arm and hand at the same time. She loves the panda bear on her play mat. 


Finally some photos of her smiling WITH mom and dad. 


She's such a happy baby. The other day we picked her up from the nursery at church and the man holding her asked "Have you ever come in here to pick her up and she was fussy?" The answer is no. They love to see her every weekend. 
Helping momma cook.
This is first thing in the morning. Dad and Adelaide have a bad habit of sucking their fingers...together. 
And these are from today. We found Adelaide a swing at a garage sale this weekend and got it hung up in the tree today. A little hot outside but it was nice and shady in the backyard. She really enjoyed it.
