Random fun at home

Sisters


Evelyn



Adeline can now sing all of the songs on Caedmon's Call's "40 Acres" album. This is some of her rendition of "Shifting Sand" sung into Evelyn's bulb syringe that was recently rediscovered and turned into a microphone.




Evelyn's a happy kid :)

Memorization Sunday

Today was Memorization Sunday at our church. Twice a year - once during fall semester and once during spring semester - people in the church who have memorized verses or passages of Scripture stand up and recite them during what would normally be the Sunday School hour. The organized Sunday School classes usually have something memorized and then there is a time for anyone to get up front and recite something they have worked on. Adeline's class (the 2's and 3's) memorized two verses for today's event. Here they are all lined up on the pew awaiting their turn - left to right: Hannah, Ashlyn, Adeline, Monica and Mason.


Here they are reciting their verses:



If you didn't notice, Adeline didn't say anything when the kiddoes recited their verses in church, so we asked her later. Here she is reciting her verses at home:



A few times a day she says, "What's your memory verse?" wanting us to ask her what her memory verse is. So we say, "Adeline, what's your memory verse?" and she'll recite the first one. Then she'll ask again, "What's your memory verse?", so we ask again and she tells us the second one. It is very cute :).

Hands-On Museum

Today Amma took us to the Hands-On Museum in Ann Arbor when she came over to visit. We had so much fun!

Adeline got to see how flexible she is...

She drove an ambulance:


Witnessed a tornado in action:


And went fishing!


Amma got a membership for us so we can have fun all year! Thanks, Amma!

Impromptu Photo Shoot

Adeline asked to hold Evelyn on the couch this morning. They were so adorable I started taking pictures. I think these will serve as Evelyn's 6 month shots :). Enjoy!

So L.A.!

Adeline's friend Monica has lots of dress up clothes to play with. Adeline discovered the heels, sunglasses and the Barbie Blackberry. I think I might have a girly-girl!!

Evelyn's Baptism (5 month Pictures)


On the Chart!

Evelyn had her 6-month well baby visit at the doctor today. She is back on the chart for weight! Here are her stats:
  • Head: 16.3" - 19%
  • Height: 26" - 57%
  • Weight: 12 lbs. 10 oz. - 2%! :)
Evelyn's become quite the good eater. She has cereal in the morning and evenings (we put a couple ounces of formula in her evening cereal). She also eats a variety of fruits and vegetables now: peaches, pears, prunes, green beans, sweet potatoes, carrots.

She's had a little virus this week - runny nose and some congestion. No fever though, thank the Lord! She's been doing well with some saline drops since they say you aren't supposed to use aspirators or bulb syringes anymore. Seriously, how has the human race survived till now??? ;-)

Evelyn had two shots today and the oral Rotateq vaccine. She did very well. We don't have to go back till February! :)
