A video for Grandma

My mom requested that I post a video of Adrienne. Here you go.

Thanksgiving Week

This was a slightly busy week for me and next week just proves to be even busier.

On Monday, we had bowling just like always.
On Tuesday, I had to go to three different stores to find what I wanted to get Adrienne for Christmas. I had to get it then because it was in the Toy Catalog and was only on sale through Wednesday. Needless to say, Adrienne did not really enjoy all of the getting in and out of the car. Later that night, Jeremy's mom and step-dad stopped over to bring his birthday present early since they had already bought it. Not to mention, I did laundry. What a day!
On Wednesday, I had to do my weekly grocery shopping. Normally this is not an issue, but with it being the day before Thanksgiving, the store was very busy.
On Thursday, which was obviously Thanksgiving, we ate dinner at Jeremy's mom's house and then went to Granny's for dessert. Adrienne was a perfect angel for her first Thanksgiving.

Big Smile!

Friday was an exceptionally long day. I had to be at work at 5am so I had to get up at 4am instead of my normal 5am. I definitely felt the loss of that hour. Jeremy put our Christmas tree up while I worked. Margaret watched Adrienne for us so that he could get it all done by the time I came home from my long 10 hour work day. He even put a lot of my little miscellaneous decorations up. I was rather impressed.

Our beautiful tree!
All lit up! Our mantle with our stockings.

Saturday and Sunday, I of course had to work again since I work in the wonderful world of retail. Adrienne and Jeremy had Daddy and Daughter time. Jeremy sent me pictures while I was at work of Adrienne smiling. It just made me want to come home even more.

Testing her walker out. She can't reach the floor, but enjoyed herself anyway.

Winter is coming!

So when I left for work on Friday morning, it was snowing. I told Jeremy that if there was still snow on the ground when I got home that afternoon with Adrienne, I was going to bundle her up and take her picture in it. Sure enough, it was still snowing when I came home. Adrienne was not too thrilled, but I did what I said I would.Don't worry she was plenty warm and we were only outside for the two pictures.
I am sure she was thinking that her mother was crazy at this point.

I am going to be an Aunt again!

Yep, you read it right. Matt and Retta are pregnant! They are due May 15, 2009. It has been two and a half years since I was an Aunt to a baby. I am so excited! It seems like Alycia, Brooke, and I started something. All of us had a pregnant sibling or in-law before we delivered our babies.

My poor little girl looks like a boy. There is purple in her socks though. :)

Back to the goings-on of the Hubert household. Last Sunday (11-09-08), Jeremy, Adrienne, and I went to City Island to watch Unclr Dominic (Jeremy's best friend) compete in the Harrisburg Marathon. He finished in 3 hours and 10 minutes. Good enough to qualify for the Boston Marathon! Adrienne slept the whole time we were there. She was such a good baby!

This is the pretty dress she wore to see Uncle Dominic.

Monday, we found out about Matt and Retta's pregnancy. Tuesday, Joey and Jacob were over for a visit.

Working on rolling over while on her back.

Friday, Jeremy brought flowers home to me. They are beautiful!

Yesterday, Grandma (my mom) came over and visited with Adrienne. Uncle Bob came over too. The most exciting part of yesterday was when Adrienne rolled over during her tummy time. It was awesome!

The video is a little dark, but you should be able to see her. She is wearing pink.

Today, Jeremy and I cleaned up the leaves in the yard. (He did most of the work.) He also isulated some of our windows and doors for the winter. Adrienne has had a fever today. It is very low-grade so nothing to worry about, but she seems to want to be held more. We will be monitoring her for any worrisome signs, but I am not expecting anything.

Check out what the shirt says. Couldn't be more true!

Halloween

Mommy's little pumpkin.

Jacob as Thomas.Joey as a Storm Trooper. Mommy and Adrienne. Three months old already!

So, Adrienne turned three months old this weekend. I can hardly believe it. She started sleeping downstairs in her crib Saturday night as opposed to upstairs in her pack n play in mommy and daddy's room. It was slightly emotional for me, but she did so well. She slept until 6:30am yesterday morning and I had to wake her up this morning. She is such a good sleeper! She is getting very close to starting to roll over. I guess there will be no more napping on the couch. :) On a not so great note, Adrienne and I both seem to have a little cold. I am blaming the flu shot that I got two weeks ago. I can take medicine, but it will diminish my milk supply so I am going to try to just keep my fluids up and keep drinking my tea and hope I get better. As long as I don't get worse, I am not going to worry about it. Adrienne already seems to be getting over hers. On another completely separate note, next Tuesday marks 10 years for Jeremy and I. Talk about surreal. It has been a decade. Boy am I starting to feel old. It really does not feel like it has been that long. On most days anyway. :) Here's to another 10!
