Adrienne's One Year Checkup

Adrienne had her one year checkup on the 13th. She now weighs 20 pounds and 6 ounces and is 28and 3/4 inches long. She is in the 33rd percentile for her length and the 34th percentile for her weight. Her doctor said that she is average for her age and is progressing well. She has met or exceeded all of the milestones that she should have. She now has four teeth, two each on the top and bottom. The top two are just through and are occasionally giving her some trouble at night, but tylenol seems to help. She has a forward facing car seat in Daddy's car and will soon have one in Mommy's car. She is such a big girl!

Adrienne's Professional Pictures

On August 8, we took Adrienne to get her pictures taken. We also had some family shots done. We originally went at 10am, but Adrienne had a meltdown and we had to come back at 2pm. She did better the second time, but she appaently does not like the white background. Now we know. We did get some very cute pictures though. Enjoy!

Look at me. I am one year old!

Look closely, you can see my teeth.

Peek-a-boo!

Always talking!

Laughing!

Adrienne's Party

So I promised pictures from Adrienne's Birthday Party and then got too busy doing other things to post them. Here they are.

Getting her Grover from Uncle Bob.

DragonTales!

I'm gonna learn my ABC's.

Look at all my goodies!

Jacob even wanted to play with them.

My GIANT Elmo cake that Grammy made me.

I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to make a mess of myself.

I had to cool down and clean up in my pool.

I absolutely LOVE the dump truck that Aunt Margaret got me!

My baby girl is 1!

Today is Adrienne's first birthday! I will have more pics to post later after her party, but I wanted to show you what she got from Mommy and Daddy

This is the front (kitchen) side.

This is the back (living room) side.

It sings and does learning things. I was able to get it at half price last year after Christmas. She loves it! As you can see, Rocky enjoys it too! : )

July 4th and a cute video...

Adrienne got all prettied up for the Fourth.

My cousin Nick was home from the Marines for the weekend. Adrienne's onesie says I heart The NAC. That is the name Nick uses when he sings. Again, she has necklaces on. I may just have a girly girl. : )
This video has a little bit of everything. There is a lot of Adrienne's new favorite pasttime of jumping on the pillow. There is also some walking, talking, dancing, crawling, and hamming it up for the camera. Enjoy!

What a little troublemaker I have on my hands!

This is what happens when an infant who knows how to open the trashcan watches you throw the ads and coupons from the paper in there and she wants them. : )

Adrienne was baptized on Sunday, July 5. These are her GodParents, Dominic and Erika. She was a little fussy, but I don't know who wouldn't be with all of those strange people there staring at them. She was a really good girl at the party afterwards.

Grandma with all of her grandkids at Adrienne's party.

This is how I found her sleeping one morning. : )

Look at my pretty girl in her necklaces!

We went to the beach!

At the Beach!

In the pool.
In her tent.
Playing pool.
Swimming with Daddy.

We took Adrienne to the beach for the first time. She loved everything, but was a little unsure of the ocean. I think it was because of the constant movement. She loved the pool even though it was a little on the cold side. She was a real trooper. Especially during the long drive and with sleeping in a strange place. While we were at the beach, her first tooth broke through. She also practiced her walking quite a bit. She was getting really good.
