Fun-filled weekend!

Oh boy! Where do I start? Oh I know, Adalyn is offically better! no more coughing, sneezing,(well, every now and then), snotty nose or wheezing! Thank you Lord! Shew, I didn't realize how nerve wracking it is to have a sick baby. And the thing is, she wasn't even all that sick! BUT, Im a 1st time momma so I have every right to be a nervous wreck. Now that she no longer has a snotty nose, she now has boogers. And lots of little crusty ones. haha. Remember the game Operation? and how you can't touch the sides or it would buzz? Well, speaking of boogers, she had the biggest booger for about 2 days or so. Her poor little nose was red and probably raw for that matter b/c we had to suck all the snot out of her nose just so she could breathe, and after doing that for a few days, she now automatically starts whinning when she sees the blue bulb coming her way. Anyway, since she wouldn't let us us the bulb, and of course my finger is way too big to fit in her nostril, we decided to use tweezers to fish it out. of course, I was nervous about stabbing her since she is a wiggle worm, but thankfully, no accidental stabbing was done and I had successfully pulled the booger out. That, my friends, is why it reminded me of Operation. =) I should have been a surgeon I reckon. I wanted to keep it just because I was amazed as to how big it was! HAHA. Only I would think of something like that.

Enough booger talking, we had a visitor this weekend! Adalyn's great-grandmother stayed with us Friday and Saturday night. My parents and granddad went to Alabama to meet up with the rest of my family to go to the races and so we had the pleasure of spending time with my grandmother! Her and Adalyn played, ate, and slept! What a life. She sure did enjoy having her great-grandmother here. She got to stare at someone else's face instead of her daddy's or mine. =) It's good to mix things up a bit. Check them out!



Adalyn also experienced her 1st Relay for Life walk this past friday! She was so good. She slept for the 1st 30-45 minutes or so... then woke up with a smile on her face (like always!) and she saw her Aunt Hope standing in front of her. Of course Aunt hope needed to hold her so Adalyn got a free ride and even stopped to make a funny face!


Oh... Drum Roll Please......... Adalyn has her 1st tooth coming in!! Can you believe it?! I can't! My baby is getting too big! and too fast! Yup, we discovered it Friday night! This past week when she was sick, she was a little fussier than normal and we just figured it was b/c she didn't feel good, but now we know on top of not feeling good, she had a tooth trying to push through her gums. I would be fussy too! I have tried to take a picture of the cute little tooth. Granted, all we can see it the top of it, but Im still so proud. =) It hurts my finger when she bites on me, I can only imagine what the ladies will feel like she she is nursing. Oh boy! thankfully, they haven't felt any sharp tooth chomp down, YET. So, this is what Adalyn has been doing lately with her mouth.

how cute is that?!

Annnd another thing, we seriously think we have an advanced baby on our hands! As do all parents with a child, I know, I know, but check this out!



Is a 5 month old suppose to stand like that?! we both started freaking out when she grabbed on to whatever was in front of her and stood straight up like, "look at me!" Ah, so proud.

I know this post was long, but I had a lot to cover! So, I end with this.

Thank you Adalyn for letting us be your parents. =) How did we ever get so lucky?
