6 Weeks Old

Adelle is Growing!
Adelle celebrated 6 weeks by getting all sorts of hugs for her first Valentine's Day! Grandma Dottie and Grandpa John watched Addie on Saturday while Brian was at a meeting all day and I went to a movie with my sisters! Side note (story): We went to see Valentine's Day. It was cute and light-hearted which was perfect for the mood we were in. We also saw the trailer for the new Sex and the City movie and have already planned a date to see it together. YAY!

Sunday was more laid back. We, Brian, Addie and I, laid around and watched movies and the Olympics. Ben, one of Adelle's Godfathers, came by to hang out with us. He is HILARIOUS and kept us laughing the whole time he was here. He is also really sweet because when I put him to work hanging clothes on hangers, he didn't flinch. He just did it and then brought everything upstairs for me. P.S. Ben, they are still in the basket!! While Ben was here, Maria came over. Ben and Maria are hilarious separate, but get them together and watch out!!! The only funny person missing from that equation was Pat (Addie's OTHER Godfather)!

Grandma Dottie and Grandpa John came by on Sunday to drop off Adelle's Valentine's Day present - BOOKS! We have been reading to her a lot so more books are needed! I know she can't remember them, but I like to read her a mixture of books and I don't really want to read the same few books every night. So keep those books coming Grandma and Grandpa - she LOVES them!!

Adelle really likes to straighten her legs now. We will hold her on our laps, she will 'stand' and we will cheer. Sometimes she smiles when we cheer, but she usually just scowls at us. OR she will raise both eyebrows and look at us like we are crazy (which we are)! That is another thing she can do now and loves to work those brows. She hasn't been able to raise only one, but I am still showing her every day just in case! She almost rolled her tongue too! Someone got a picture of it I think.... She likes listening to music and looking around the room. She is getting more used to looking outside too,even though it is terribly bright. And the most amazing thing she has accomplished this week, though I am probably jinxing it right now, is the ability to sleep through the night! She has been getting to bed anywhere from 11-12 and sleeping until about 5-6. A couple of nights she slept through to 7:30 and Mommy got freaked out when she woke up and looked at the clock! Adelle was just ravenous though! OH, and she has giggled in her light sleep a couple of times! I can't WAIT for those when she is awake!!

Next week we have her 2 month doctor's appointment so we will have LOTS to say then hopefully.

I'll post the few pictures we have and maybe even a video or two, when I am more awake.
