hey, look at me...15 months later

Just wanted to give a quick 15 month update for Ms. Adilyn before we head to New York City (this Wednesday). 

Hey...Look at me - I'm 15 months old and growing!

Height: 29" (5%)

Weight: 17lbs 1oz (5%)

Head Size: 44.5cm (10.25%)

Can you believe it?! Well, believe it baby!! I've been growing these past few months. I'm...

2" taller, 2 lbs heavier, and 1cm bigger in the nogan than my 12 month appointment!

Aren't you proud?!

All that, even though I've been BUSY running around...

...collecting stuff 

becoming even more beautiful every day inside and out!

I hope you all have a wonderful week. I'll be off getting spoiled with my Grandparents while Mom and Dad are in New York celebrating!



pushing...

I know it's been a while.  I'm pushing...your patience for checking this blog for updates - my patience when uploading pictures that capture the last month of life - sugar on our child to help celebrate Easter - 30, celebrating my 28th birthday the day after Easter -- and myself to get out and enjoy! So thank you for hanging in there and hopefully my efforts to at least push the button on our camera will outweigh the wait!
So, without delay - here are some snapshots of life lately - pushed on you.

all smiles - keeping busy playing non stop!

oh yeah and i may have painted one toenail while she drifted off :)

such a big girl she needs her own place on the couch

but definitely still a big fan of her thumb! 

 

we've been experimenting with new ways to keep that hair out of her face - this is the latest..though it does push her patience while i carefully put two binders in her hair in one sitting

always so curious - pointing at anything and everything nearby

then we spent some time enjoying the beautiful weather - pushing things around...

and riding in them...briefly

because what's a wagon ride without some stunts?

then we went back to pushing...and pushing...

 

The angel said said to the women, "Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.  He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said.  - Matthew 28:5-6 
Now, while the rest of the pictures share our Easter holiday celebration - I do want to emphasize that it is not all about finding Easter eggs - in fact, it is not even remotely about that, but Adi is 1 so we did some hunting anyway.

Hunt #1 with G+G Powers: with a gift from Great Grandpa John

and we needed applause every time we found an egg

 

Hunt #2 with G+G Peltier: combination with my birthday party

and i LOVED the chocolate filled eggs 

auntie lola helping me show off my cookie 

spent a little time watching the Masters with daddy 

and even braving the wind to play outside 

Easter Morning - checking out my goodies 

exploring at Aunt and Uncle Rostamo's house 

only took about 15 tries to get a family picture 

in and out... 

sneaking bites with Grandma in the kitchen before we ate 

meeting a new friend...Liam   

Hunt #3 at Aunt + Uncle Rostamo's: with all that practice, I'm a pro! 

inspecting the loot...

 

such a beautiful Easter holiday spent with family!

we're tuckered out - see you again soon! (I know, but I'll try)
