The Baby that thinks she can sit up......

BUT CAN'T
Adalee is not even 3 months old yet and she is determined to sit up. She does not want to lay down on the ground, or in people's arms anymore. She wants to sit up and explore the world, but the funny thing is......she can't really do it. We want to get her a bumbo seat, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't have enough neck/trunk control for that quite yet. So we have resorted to a boppy pillow with a blanket for now. She LOVES it! You should see her. She is as happy as a clam and very smiley sitting up. I just keep having to prop her back up when she starts to lean forward or to the side. Such a silly girl.
And yes its almost 3pm and we are both still in our Jammies!!! haha. Gotta love lazy Saturdays.

All About Addy

Addy turned 2 months old July 11th. We left that day for California so I never got the chance to update the Blog about Miss Addy-Pants. She had her 2 month check up the day after we got home from our Vacation. Here are her measurements from the visit to the Doctor:
Weight: 10lbs. 25%
Length: 23 1/2 inches 85%
Head: 15.1 inches 30%
As you can see by her stats, she is LONG and skinny. She definitely does not get her height from her dad's side of the family.
Things Adalee can do/likes:
-Loves to smile especially first thing in the morning when we go to get her out of her crib
-Loves music. She smiles and coos when we turn on her mobile or her little sea-horse that lights up and plays music. She also loves it when we sing and dance with her.
-Likes her binky-but only when she is tired. She doesn't like it any other time during the day. If she doesn't want it she makes the funniest face and spits it out.
-She is a wiggle-worm. She can squirm out of her bouncy seat....we now have to buckle her in.
-Addy loves to sit up and look around.
-Addy is obsessed with fans. She could sit and stare at a fan for hours.
-She loves to "talk" to Cameron and I. We have many jibberish conversations a day
-She is such a good and happy baby. She only cries when she is tired or hungry.
-Adalee sleeps 8-10 hours at night. Yes I know, my baby rocks!!!
-Loves her play mat and is starting to grab at toys.
We love our little girl and love watching her grow and learn. Can't believe 2 months have already gone by.

Adalee's Blessing

We blessed Adalee Sunday, July 4th. It was such a great day surrounded by tons of loving family. Cameron did such a great job on her blessing! He was nervous for weeks before but it all seemed to disappear as he got up there Sunday to bless his beautiful little girl. She was such a good baby all day long and enjoyed being held by everyone. Thanks to all our family who came to support Adalee.


She wore my blessing dress which was made by my Grandma Willora







Kisses for the pretty baby.

4th of July Weekend

At first I was pretty bummed that the 4th of July landed on a Sunday this year, but I think I prefer it this way now because the weekend turned into a 3 day celebration!!! We had tons of fun. Saturday Cameron worked but I was planning on taking Addy to the Kaysville parade but.....we didn't make it. Adalee usually sleeps 7-8 hours every night (I know...she totally rocks, and I'm so so so lucky) but for some reason she didn't want to sleep Friday night. So needless to say we skipped the parade so my baby could sleep in the morning. I was a little bummed but I kept thinking of how more fun she will have next year at all the 4th of July events. My brother Martin has a Snowie and Cotton Candy business and so they were busy at their booth in Kaysville. We headed over later in the afternoon to see everyone and snag some free Cotton Candy and Snowies. The rest of the evening was pretty uneventful for us. I went home and cleaned my house for Adalee's baby blessing Sunday.


Sunday we Blessed Adalee. I'll make a separate post about her Blessing day.


Monday Cameron had the day off so we ventured out to Layton for their celebration. My brother was also running a booth at this event too. So we went to see them and all the family that was there helping him. Addy did great being there pretty much all day. We ate some yummy phillipino food and I bought some cute Jewelry and Headbands for Addy. My bestest friend Coriann and her little girl also came over and hung out with us. We left before fireworks because I don't think the baby would do well and even if she did ok, she really wouldn't care.

Overall it turned out to be a pretty low-key, but great weekend!!!
