Fun Weekends

Jeff sometimes works for a few hours in the mornings on Saturdays but this Saturday he didn't. We decided to have a fun filled day after being able to sleep in. Yes, Adalyn slept in until 10AM! It was really nice. I made sure Jeff knew that this doesn't always happen haha.

Before I forget I wanted to post her 6 month stats. She is just a petite little thing! She got her shots on the 14th so it was 2 days after she turned 6 months.

Height: 24 1/2" (15%)
Weight: 14lb 6oz (18%)
Still wears 0-3 month clothes and can fit into some smaller 6 month clothes.


This time around her shots went amazing. She usually gets a fever after he shots and just sleeps and fusses all day but this time it was like she didn't even know she got shots that day. I made sure not to plan anything for that day but since she was feeling okay I went out and got some groceries because sometime during that week Katelyn and I were going to make some freezer meals.

Freezer meals are awesome especially if you are going to be having a baby soon! While I was on bedrest my mom made me like 15 freezer meals and it was sooo nice. All I had to do was put the things in the crock pot and dinner would be ready that night. It helped me out a ton and it was awesome in the beginning when Addie was a newborn.

Katelyn ended up making 8 and I made 4. I ended up making Honey Sesame Chicken, Beef and Mushroom, Chicken Brocolli Alfredo and then Chicken Cacciatore. All you have to do is get some rice or for some of these noodles to go with the meal and then maybe one other side. SUPER EASY. It was fun doing them and we made a goal to start doing them more often just for days we don't feel like cooking or something.




This girl has started the whole fun of solid food eating and boy does she love it. She LOVES avocado, carrots, sweet potatoes and bananas! She doesnt like peas too much but if I mix them with carrots or something she will eat them. We haven't tried all the foods yet but we are working on it. :) I feel like she eats more now than ever. Jeff couldn't believe how much she eats while he was home last weekend. Jeff was probably feeding her in this picture below haha..



If you know my mom you know how creative and talented she is. Seriously whenever I go over to her house shes working on a new project and always coming up with new fun things. I hope some of her creativity rubs off on me sometime. She definitely knows how to spoil her grand kids. She is an amazing mom and Memaw. Boy do I love her shes definitely my best friend! She made this gnomy doll for Adalyn and she loves it and squeals and plays with her "gnomy" all the time. She even sleeps with it. It is like one of those small blankes that have a toy at the end of it. It's soo cute!




Okay well now to get to last weekend. We slept in until 10 which was pretty amazing because that honestly NEVER happens at all. I popped some cinnamon rolls in the oven and fed Addie and we all got ready. We headed off to the Pumpkin Patch and met my mom there. It was fun. Addie was tired when we went but she still had fun. We ended up getting a huge 28lb pumpkin. (We will be posting what we will be doing with this pumpkin at a different time).
A few hours after that we decided that we wanted to go see that movie Captain Phillips so Emily was able to watch Addie for us! She is going to be such a good mom and I cannot wait until little Harper arrives. :) Go see that movie by the way it was awesome. It is nice to get away for a few hours sometimes just to get a little break even though most of the time all I am thinking about is Adalyn.







Our little girl is a talker especially if she has a toy in her hand. Man oh man she has the cutest little squeals and it melts my heart! Here is one from today. She can just sit for hours and talk and squeal.




On Sunday we went to church and it was our children's program. I love that Sacrament meeting, its so fun to watch all the little kids sing. Then later that day we were able to go visit my grandparents before my grandma had to get surgery. She was getting a fast procedure done to get a filter out that was blocking the blood clots and that surgery went fantastic yesterday.

That's about it for now. Sorry if there is spelling errors and how random this is. I always look back and think it's too much to reread and edit so I skip that part...
