I just posted some pictures, but they are terribly out of order. It's pretty easy to figure out when they took place.

On a side note, we have been hearing a lot of "Pooh...Pooh...Pooh." Who would have known that the Pooh books I bought at Kohls would have been such a huge success :).

Adelynn loved the beach in Clearwater.

Homosassa Springs


On Spring Break, we visited one of Mike's favorite childhood spots, Homosassa Springs. He used to come here when he visited Grandpa and Grandma Brown, who lived just down the road.

Catching up


Here is a picture from back in March. We were headed to a water polo game. She has a lot more teeth and quite a bit more hair now.

Life's little memories

It seems that every day Adelynn packs it full of new memories for us. Tonight was no different. There are those days that you just know you are going to remember and our hearts are just filled with love and happiness. I know this is sounding cheesy, but that is truly how we feel.

Adelynn loves to dance and twirl (in large part thanks to music time at Miss Paula's house). So, we turned on our radio in the kitchen and I tried to find some good dance music for her. Our usual station, 99.3, was on a commercial break, so I went one station past to 100.5. As the station came in, Christmas music flooded through the kitchen. How I could have forgotten that Christmas music starts on November 1, I don't know--I have been thinking about this all of October. BUT, Adelynn LOVED it. She is her mommy's Christmas-loving girl, I guess. So, we spent the next twenty minutes--the three of us--dancing to Christmas music in the kitchen. Adelynn stood on Mike's feet and danced, and then she grabbed on to our hands and twirled, and then she stood on my feet and we danced, and then we twirled, and then she went under our legs and would dance some more. I just tried to take one mental picture after another.

After our mini dance marathon, Adelynn took a bath. Again, we had more of those great memories. Adelynn loves the water and loves baths. She had so much fun splashing and floating and kicking and all that fun stuff you can do in water. It was just so fun to see.
