visiting

Well I realize it's been some time since I've updated - oops! Life has definitely been busy...it's finally starting to feel closer to summer, we've gotten together with great friends and work has been really chaotic for both Dan and I! All that said, we are loving every minute of it - although we have never been so exhausted!

The latest news is that Grandpa Dale is in town from FL! He got here on Monday and has been able to visit with Adi every evening since - have to pack in the time while we can since he hasn't seen her since she was born! Adilyn is loving the attention and time with her Grandpa D. 

As you can tell, they have wasted no time getting to know each other better. It really made me realize how much she's grown and changed in just 4 short months.  I can see why and how parents always remind you to cherish each moment, because time flies and before you know it, your kids are off on their own! Hard for me to imagine, so for now...I'll just love this moment!

Other than that, we've just been loving our lil girl - she continues to be alert and active and VERY aware of her surroundings.  It's so fun to just walk her around the house and watch her take everything in.  We've also started reading books to her and she seems pretty intrigued, especially by those with lots of bright colors.  We have also been taking advantage of the fact that she's pretty oblivious to what we're doing to her as you can see in a couple of photos below. I don't know why it's so darn cute when you get babies to look like/do stuff that's definitely beyond their current age range. :)

Maybe a little too early to start using chopsticks...but it looked like fun watching Mommy, Daddy and Grandpa eating sushi! Ok, maybe Mommy just thought it would be funny to try...

Well that's about all we have for now. I'll try to keep updating - but am pretty confident that the days of every day or every other day updates are gone...It's crazy how busy we are from the time we wake up until we force ourselves to bed because we know we should.  Adilyn is an absolute joy, but life is sure different now!  We have a busy weekend ahead of us too - so I'll make sure to capture some memories on film and post later....just no promises on when!
