Lots of events to blog about....but mostly just pictures!

Adalyn Love is now 6 1/2 months! I think it's funny when we go out and people say "oh, she's big for 6 months!" It's funny to me because she came home at 4 lbs 11 oz....smallest baby I have ever held! She is doing great! What's new??! Hmmm....well, we love our sitter! Have I mentioned that?! She is such an answer to prayer! Adalyn loves her too! Ady is sitting up pretty well...we still have to be there to monitor as she will fall side to side or back eventually. She definitely notices bottles now and reaches for them and draws them to her mouth! If I can ever get her to eat solids, she likes all veggies and bananas so far! I can't get her to eat cereal, and she's really not eating much of the other stuff! She still prefers the "ba ba" Our sitter is working on getting her to say "B" words because Adalyn is always making "B" sounds with her mouth! She still is not rolling a ton, but I have seen her do it twice from her back to her tummy! She is much more into toys than she used to be..in fact, right now, she is sitting in her dad's lap, and together, they are playing with all the new toys. Good thing for Adalyn, I think her dad is just as much into them! HAVE I TOLD ANYONE SHE HAS HER FIRST TOOTH?!?!? Pretty sure I called, texted and facebooked about it right when I found it! ha ha! It's still just a little sliver but it's sharp! We found her tooth on Mother's Day! There are a couple of pics below from Mother's Day! The others are from Bath time, Grammy's Birthday and Main Street Days in Grapevine. We went with our awesome friends, Ben, Holly, and Reid! Reid and Adalyn both did GREAT!! Enjoy these pics!

So Blessed....

I have been keeping up with Stellan on MyCharmingKids.net. He was born on the same day as my Ady Love and has a heart condition. All of this hits so close to home. My sister died from a heart condition when she was 4. I have seen what my mom has had to go through with a sick child and I can sympathize with McKmama (Stellan's mommy). I read on her blog and twitter every day, waiting for updates on his condition. It goes in and out of being good and bad.....I have never prayed so much in my life or cried so much for someone that I don't know. I have even been depressed over this.... Josiah has been concerned that reading this blog is taking away my joy for my own child....and with that, I have to say "I am SO BLESSED! Thank you Lord for your many blessings."

I do have to say that yesterday I was thinking about Stellan and reading more of his blog. Yesterday was hard! He is in a hospital bed, asleep most of the time, and he is witnessing to more people than I am. I am awake and can leave my house whenever I want and I am around non-believers all the time!!! I should be doing everything I can to win people over to the Kingdom! "Lord, I want to be bold! I want to focus my mind and my heart on You! Draw me close."

Here are a few cute pics of my Amazing Blessing!!!!

PLEASE PRAY! Born on the same day as my Ady Love!

It's official, I am in love!!

Easter Bunny!

My little lady, Adalyn Love, 5 1/2 months

Hey everyone! It's been a long time since the last post! So here goes with the updates:
Adalyn is over 14 lbs now! Woo hoo! What a big girl! She's come a long way from 4lbs 15.5oz! She loves all of her new friends, Brielle, Reid, London, Grayson Brooks, and Isabella! Shout out! Her new favorite songs are "Jesus Loves Me", "Do, Re, Mi," and "I am a CHRISTIAN." And I sing scales to her as we put on her peejys (pjs). Josiah promises me that she can already match pitch! ha! Wishful thinking! Adalyn starts going to childcare this Thursday. My mom has been up here for two months to watch her and is leaving this week....sad times for both of us! We were both getting emotional last night! aaaahh!! Adalyn is sleeping in her crib every night minus the off night here and there! She is just now rolling side to side! She loves to put everything in her mouth! She is a drooling machine! Could a tooth be pushing its' way through?!?! Now for the most important part: PICTURES!!!! These are from 5 months!
