Enough of Dada already..what about Mama?

This week Adalyn turned 7 months old. This week she has really started talking. Everything and enveryone is Da da. I have been working hard to get her to say Mama, but she isn't having it. She continues to get up on her knees as if she is going to crawl and then proceeds to dive forward at the object in her radar. She has the motions of the knees and hands down, now all she has to do is get them to function together. This weekend we began the process of baby proofing, but still have a ways to go.

On Friday after school Addy and I made another big purchase for her (one of many). We bought her a new carseat because she is quickly outgrowing her infant carrier and will soon exceed its weight and heigth limitations. Addy and I managed to walk out of Babies-R-Us with only the carseat, which was a monumental occasion for me. Usually the clothes or accessories always get me!

On Saturday we went to Bloomington to run errands. Derek had a few things to take care of at the office, so Addy spent some time there with him as I went to a few stores. Addy enjoyed her time at the office with daddy. She checked out the unfamiliar surroundings and liked sitting in her daddy's chair. It was a pretty uneventful week as far as outings go. We spent a lot of time playing with Adalyn and working in the house. We are looking forward to next week because Addy and Mommy have a four day weekend (sorry Daddy)!
