Teething!!

Earlier this week we discovered that Addy's first tooth is breaking through. Her front tooth on the bottom has started to show, which explains her fussy temperment as of late. She has been chewing on anything and everything she can get her hands on! She has transformed into a gnawing and drooling machine! We are so excited that she is getting teeth. However, it is just another sign that our little girl is getting big way faster than we would like her to!


Adalyn is also itching to be mobile. She will sit up and dive at things beyond her reach. She often somehow manages to manuever to whatever object that is in her sight. During the past few days she has started to push herself up on her hands and knees into a crawling position. She has become much more observant of sounds and is becoming more and more of a challenge to feed because she is so curious about what is going on around her. She has also started to hold her bottle, although I think she still prefers having it held for her.


This week was a very busy one. Derek and I had meetings on various days and I had my usual class on Tuesday night. Our busy schdules certainly make picking up and dropping off Adalyn very intresting. Although our schedules are hectic and it seems like our heads are spinning, it seems as though Addy is getting comfortable with her routine of going to the two sitters.
This weekend was a rather uneventful one. We spent a great deal of our time at home tying up odds and ends around the house. We rearranged some of the rooms to create a designated toy area in our living room. Our house now looks more like a home again and less like a giant toy box. Addy stayed home with her dad on Sunday morning while I ran a few errands. He dressed her in a Colts onesie in preparation for the game agains Jackonsonville. Unfortuntely the onesie didn't bring the Colts luck, as they lost AGAIN!
We had a pretty low key week, which we found particularly low stress and relaxing. We are really enjoying the beautiful fall weather and look forward to many fall outings with Adalyn!

Addy loves bathtime!

I don't think Addy can get any cuter! Did Derek put that bow in her hair?
