Happy 1/2 Birthday Addie!

Adelaide celebrated her six month birthday last week with some mashed up pears and sweet potatoes.  Sorry dad, no cake for this one.... : (

She has been working hard to get a little more mobile and has nearly figured out how to crawl. Check out the video from earlier this afternoon: 

Growing Baby

Its been an exciting month! Adelaide has started eating "real" food, and has her daddy's appetite. She already has two teeth (front bottom) and it really hurts when she bites down on your finger! She loves to exercise her vocal cords, and seems like every day she tries to get louder and higher pitched then before. She is not crawling yet (you can tell she is thinking about it) but she can "schooch" herself backwards, and it is hilarious to watch her try to follow the dog around the living room.

We enjoyed a visit from our friends Marisa and Brian who came to see us from Chicago. We introduced them to a New England boil... and as you can see, Addie wanted to play with the food.

Next, Grandpa John stayed with the girls while Brad went on his final sailing trip. I don't know what he misses more now that he is gone, Addie or the Navy Exchange :)

A few more days and the little one turns 6 months old! Keep an eye out for some 1/2 birthday pics soon!
