Adalyn is 5 Months Old

Friday was Adalyn's 5 month birthday!! So here is a little update on our sweet baby girl...

1. Your smile lights up a room


2. You are eating cereal and have had your first taste of some veggies - not sure if you and peas get along or not. Yuck!


3. You like to sleep on your tummy and your side.


4. You look a lot like your daddy as a baby.


5. We dedicated you to the Lord today!

Proverbs 22:6
Train a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not turn from it.

Our Lil Pumkin is 2!

Annabelle is 2! Our precious girl had a birthday today, though we have been celebrating her all weekend!

Saturday, was her party out at The Maize. My friend Monica made these precious invitations (I started to put the backside, but it had my phone #) and I made the matching outfits that you will see in all the pictures (I was very proud of myself)...

We rode a cow train, did a mini-maize, saw some farm animals and took a hayride to the pumpkin patch so that the kiddos could pick a pumpkin.

How cute are John and Ava Grace? I just had to throw that in there!

(Side note: At'l Do Farms made it a great experience. We will definitely be partying there in the future.)

How about that, I some cute pictures with my girls - that almost never happens since I am usually behind the lens.

Annabelle had so much fun and wore herself out so much that she couldn't get out of the parking lot before she was asleep. After she finally woke up from her nap, we opened some presents at home, though I got zero pictures of that. She got some great stuff. We have such generous family and friends. Thanks everyone!

My parents and Neno's sister Carrie were in town for the weekend. We loved having them here!

Today... the actual birthday was a little less eventful, but Annabelle still had a great day! We started telling her happy birthday first thing and her response was happy birthday! She took treats to school for her friends and they sang happy birthday during snack time. When we sang happy birthday and she started singing happy to you. In fact, she went to bed singing it. So cute!

Our sweet pumpkin - I cannot believe that you have already been with us for two years!!! Don't let everyone fool you with their teasing about you being tempermental or for lack of a better term, a turd. We all adore you! You make the best faces and have the cutest little voice - I will get it on tape at some point. We love you so much and our lives would not be the same without you. Happy Birthday!!!
