Adeline's Blanky Is Lost

It just disappeared!! In my possession, of course, but it was not because of my usual forgetfulness. It really just disappeared. Adam dropped her off to me at school & shoved the blanket in her bag (for sure, we both remember this), then her and I walked straight into the computer lab. No one at my school found a blanket or saw a blanket. No one turned one in that had maybe fallen in the parking lot! What's up with that? Would someone really steal a baby blanket (a very EXPENSIVE baby blanket, I might add)?
Sooo, I do not have the money to replace the blanket this month & luckily the company makes much cheaper, smaller, lovey blanket sizes. Still though, I had to order it online & pay $28 extra dollars for next day shipping so it would get here tomorrow!! Out of the 2 baby boutiques here in town that sold these blankets, one is now closed & the other switched their blanket brand. Today was very frustrating! And nap & bedtime have been hard!!
That girl better be thrilled when the new blanket arrives tomorrow! oh, what we do for kids!

My Hubby Loves Me

I've said it before but I have to say it again. You can have all of your roses and fancy dinners (although I do adore them AJ). I know my husband loves me when I'm halfway to school, realize I forgot my ___(insert obvious object here like purse, laptop, lunch) and then realize that my hubby had already put it in the truck for me. I'm telling you it happens a couple of times a week!
Before you know it, it'll be kids I'm forgetting. Hopefully he'll remember to put them in the car for me too!

Playing in Nana Perky's Jewelry

This is what Nana Perky is famous for!! Adeline is just getting her first taste of playing in Nana's closet!

Cousins


Thanks to Aunt Theresa for snapping this picture of PawPaw Wilbert riding the boys around on the lawn mower.

New Words

Adeline has lots of new vocabulary from Thanksgiving to now. Her favorites are "sit down" and "eat", which she lots of times puts together to make a semi-sentence, "I sit down, I eat"!! Ha!
She tells us quite a bit to sit down. I hear her yelling at Baylor "Bayuh sit down (and then pats the floor or chair). It's very cute! She also learned to climb in this big chair with Baylor repeating over and over, "I sit down, I sit down".

Playing Together is so Cute!

Daddy snapped this shot. I love it because they are playing together.

Baylor's Birthday Month

Seriously, I mean month. It started with birthday cards in the mail. On the 11th we had his birthday dinner. Baylor loves seafood, and, in our world of fighting with him to eat EVERYTHING, I actually wish we could afford to eat seafood every day because he just eats and eats and eats! And not fried seafood, just good old healthy stuff! Of course, he always chooses seafood for his birthday dinner so we went to Pappas Seafood where Baylor ordered an adult Hudson Platter that consisted of 2 lobster, 6 scallops, and 3 bacon wrapped shrimp. He polished off every bit, not to mention the calamari appetizer. Then the following weekend we had a small family birthday party. In the meantime, more birthday cards came in the mail. He also had cupcakes at school for his class. Then this past weekend, he chose 4 friends to spend the day out in Kemah. It was a great party. We had a sitter for Adeline, so Adam & I pretty much just relaxed while the boys rode all the rides they could! And more cards came in the mail!! Thank you to everyone who came to either party bearing gifts, and, of course, all of those who sent cards in the mail!
We can't believe Baylor is 9! I keep telling him he's halfway to adulthood! We've been blessed 9 years in a row.
