We had so much fun last weekend (pictures to follow, I promise!). We went to Savannah for my cousin's wedding. We were lucky to have all of Adelyn's aunts and uncle, on the Laws side in attendance! We were also able to celebrate Aunt Rebecca's birthday with a nice brunch on Saturday morning. I knew that Adelyn would have fun at the reception, but I did not realize just how much fun. Once we got some food in her, and the band picked up, she did not sit down. She danced and ran around the room for the entire evening- stopping only to grab a bite or two of cake or to tell Paul or I 'again' each time the music stopped. After the 2nd set break (around 915), we begrudgingly brought her back to the room so she could crash with my parents. Apparently she was so wound up, she did not actually go to bed until around 1030 or so.
In other Adelyn news, she is becoming more adept at using the potty. Last night, for example, she wanted to sit on the potty before I put her diaper on after her bath. I was not sure if she just wanted to play or if she actually needed to go, but after about 10-15min, she stood up, very proud of herself, and looked in the potty to make sure she had gone. Paul and I did a little potty dance and she was excited. Hopefully we are on the right track here....
She has also been talking. A lot. Every word I say, she repeats. She is learning new words daily, it amazes me how much she is able to absorb. She is able to look at words she has never seen and tell me each letter in the word. She is counting (although sometimes I think she skips 4-6). If it wasn't apparent before, it is very apparent now- Adelyn is a girl who knows what she wants, and wants it when she wants it :)
I am leaving tomorrow for a friend's Bat Mitzvah in Palm Beach, so Paul and Adelyn will be able to spend some quality time with Nana and PopPop, who will be driving down to spend mother's day weekend at the beach.
Until next time....
