We are so close to 20 lbs. I can't wait to hit this mile marker b/c that means i can finally turn that car seat around (since she is turning 1 on Nov. 1- I know she has to be both). This little social butterfly hates not seeing what is happening. Having her face the back is like pure torture for this doodle bug. So, her official weight is 18.4 lbs and she is 29 inches long. She is a little over the 50th percentile for height and I have a yeah-- she is closer to the 25th percentile in her weight. yippee!
Fun facts - Adriana loves music- I think I've mentioned that before. Anyway, in the mornings we have a routine: she sits for breakfast and we turn on a group called Jesus Culture (main singer: Kim Walker.. wow, awesome!!) Last week, Adriana and I were sitting for b/f and I forgot to turn on the music..she turned herself around in her seat and pointed at the stereo. I was a little slow, and just said, "yes, stereo?" She kept pointing and saying baby talk. I realized she wanted to music on, finally, so I turned it on. She happily turned back around and started doing her seat dance. Then, this is the part that amazes me.. at one point, the lead singer says, "everybody raise your hands ..." I know this cd by heart.. I didn't budge.. just kept eating my cereal. Two minutes later, Adriana raises her hands and starts singing. She sings like this, "awwww, oooooo". It is the cutest thing I've ever heard. It was just surprising to see her do exactly what the music said. I don't really think she understood the singer, but I think she felt the Spirit.
Mimi is flying into town tomorrow, Biggie comes in on thurs., Erica and Matt round out the week by flying in on friday. Why are the Hansen's coming into town?? FOR ADRIANA'S FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY.
This Saturday, we are celebrating Addie's first year of life. I can't wait. We will update with pictures of the party next week!
