on the move!

Traveling for work again...so this will be a quick one; but it's just getting ridiculous how little time I have to update - and some major stuff has been happening!

Adilyn is officially CRAWLING! That's right. It all started about 2 weeks ago (almost to the day). I set her on our bed while I put some laundry away and when I turned around, she had definitely moved significant distances - ok, she was still on the bed, so she hadn't gone that far...but she was chasing after my watch (she likes shiny things). 
Ever since, Dan and I have been trying to get her to crawl more - moving toys in front of her or ourselves to entice her.  She is definitely staying true to her personality and doing things on her own time.  Most of the time, she would just stare at us and sit herself down to play.  This weekend, however, she started moving - much more.  She's been crawling around the living room - playing with her toys, pulling herself up on various items and exploring her surroundings.  She's had a little harder time crawling when she's in her cozy sleepers since the wood floors don't give her much traction - but it sure is fun to watch! 

Two weekends ago, we had nursery duty at Church and while we were in there, she pulled herself up on one of thoes toy carts and started walking behind it.  She took quite a few steps without falling - though she did have some bigger spills too. 

It was pretty amazing to watch and we are having a blast watching our very little girl become more mobile!

We spent last weekend celebrating Dan's 28th birthday - so close to 30!! We went out to dinner and a movie together on Friday night while Grandma Powers babysat (thanks!).  Saturday we hung out around the house and helped my sister move some of her belongings out of the townhouse.  Sunday we went to Church and had a nice lazy day around the house, watching football and just spending time together as a fam - it was pretty great. :)

I promise to post some more pictures of the peanut soon - but had to get an update out there for now!
