Gymnastics meet

Over the weekend, Adaline took Daddy, Mommy, and Poppa to the gymnastics meet on campus. These are cell phone pictures, hence the lack of clarity - but thought you might like to see them...

Popcorn

We had quite a fun experience last weekend - popping popcorn the old fashioned way (well, old fashioned for those of us growing up in the 70's and 80's with Jiffy Pop). Adaline loved watching the popcorn bag expand - and especially loved getting to eat the popcorn after it was done popping. :) Fun, fun.

And, for the record, her dad bought her the St. Patrick's Day hat she is wearing... :)
The first video below is of Adaline attempting to "throw" popcorn into her mouth like her daddy... Ha! Ha! The second one lets you hear how Adaline pronounces "popcorn" - it makes Bryan laugh out loud whenever she says it.

Hodgson's Pharmacy

What is a day at the park without ice cream??? We broke all of Mommy's healthy eating rules and went for ice cream at Hodgson's Pharmacy BEFORE lunch last Saturday! We sat outside to eat and watched the cars go down Milledge Avenue. Adaline loved seeing everyone and would wave to people as they sped by.



We were amazed when an ambulance went by - Adaline asked "Is somebody hurt?" She must be brilliant! :)

A Day at the Park

Adaline does not like to sit still, so Bryan and I are thrilled that WOW Playground exists. We went last Saturday, and Adaline ran herself out. It was wonderful.

Adaline has become quite confident in her athletic ability, and without encouragement, she decided she wanted to walk across this balancing rope. As you can see, she was quite successful!


One of her favorite things to do at the park is go sliding. There are lots of slides at WOW, but she seems to prefer this one.

Valentines Day

Grammy (aka RaRa) made Adaline a scarf for Valentines Day - and it is tough for us to keep it clean because Adaline wants to wear it everywhere! :) Here she is wearing it at the dinner table...

Cooking for Gramps!



During Gramps visit, Adaline helped make dinner one evening - a big bowl of chili! She enjoys helping out with any project around the house, and she once again proved to be a very helpful assistant.


Gramps visits!

We were happy to have Gramps visit a few weeks ago. Adaline, of course, having someone around that never says no... :) Whatever fun she wanted to have, Gramps was a ready friend. She is already looking forward to his next visit!
