Hunter had his 4 month checkup recently and we are happy to report he’s doing fantastic.  Every one of his measurements (height, weight, head-circumference) were over the 80th percentile!  Our little Hercules!   The doctor also told us that since he can hold his head up, it’s time we start letting him experiment with solid food (rice cereal).  That news hit us the hardest.  Surely it couldn’t be time for Hunter to start eating from a spoon!  It feels like he just got here!  Our little boy is growing up WAAAAAaaay too fast.

Both the kids have had runny noses this past week.  No fevers, just snot.  Lots of snot.  So, we’ve kept them indoors away from all the nasty pollen.  Adalyn has certainly kept herself (and us) entertained with non-stop Lego building and dressing up in her costume jewelery.

Adalyn rock’n the new Sophia-the-firsts.

Hunter is in full-on teething mode.  He’s been especially fussy these past few days, which is weird for this mellow little man.  A little oral-gel seems to do the trick though.  Now, if we can only get his drool under control!  🙂

So while all of our babysitters are enjoying themselves in Vegas the Crew has decided to take a little stay-cation for ourselves.  We started things off with a trip to Catch Air.  It took Adalyn a few minutes to warm up but after she saw other kiddos running, jumping, sliding, and riding on all the things the playground had to offer, she just wouldn’t stop.  Good times.

 

OMG…Cute overload.

 

We can’t believe our baby girl has turned the big 0-2!  Adalyn is sweet, independent, smart, beautiful, and funny.  She amazes us everyday and we couldn’t be more proud.  We threw a small party at our house to celebrate her birthday and she had a ball.  She certainly enjoyed being the center of attention, not that she isn’t any other day… 🙂  Kayla and I had an absolute blast getting to see her interact with our family and friends.  We want to give a big THANK YOU to everyone for coming out our way and making the party such a success.  Young or Old-er, she captured the hearts of everyone she talked to.  I mean look at these pictures…How cute is she?!  😉

Be sure to check out Hunter’s impression of Blue Steel in picture number three.  Oh, and I don’t usually post out-takes but that last one cracks me up.  🙂

Adalyn…doing laundry.  🙂
