happy five months adi!


Little Miss Adisyn is 5 months old today although she still looks like she is 3-4 months old. We celebrated today in the sun at Grandma's pool.



All of us have been enjoying our time at the pool, playground, and the beach over the last few days. All the fun in the sun wore Adisyn out a couple nights ago and she slept through the night - from 8:30pm to 7:00am! I checked on her twice when I woke up to make sure she was still breathing. She has not slept more than a 3 hour stretch in over 3 weeks now. It's going to be a little rough going back to work next week if she continues the every 3 hour wake ups as her sleeping through the night did not continue.

Adisyn is now officially in size 2 diapers and she is fitting in 3 month clothes perfectly. She can wear some 3-6 months, but only in Old Navy brand. She is still working on rolling over from back to belly. She does a great job getting on her side and tries so hard to pull herself to her tummy. We've recently graduated from swaddling at night to sleeping in a sleep sack. I do occassionally swaddler her for naps, but mostly if she is just fighting her naps. Adisyn mostly handle 2 1/2 hour wake times, but does fairly well up to 4 hours for the last stretch of the day. If she doesn't take a nap by 4:30pm she passes the window of opportunity and I have to keep her up in order to get her to bed at a decent hour.

Isn't she just the cutest?




Caden is just loving his time at the pool. He calls it the "water park". Our first day at the pool he wanted NOTHING to do with the frog arm floaties. The next day he played with a boy who had them on and they were jumping off the first step (in the kiddie pool). I told Caden he needed his arm floaties, so he would not go under water. Naturally he did not listen and he did go under. My brave boy did not cry, but he did put on his arm floaties. He learned he could float with them and was brave enough to go in the big pool with mama and grandma. He did not want either of us holding him and enjoyed floating/swimming around. It was too cute!



Can I just say this boy LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the ocean. He was just in awe of all the water and white waves. He wanted to keep on walking out and had no fear. We didn't stay too long since Adisyn needed to get home to eat. (She refuses to nurse when we are out and about.)



I'm looking forward to our summer visit next year more than ever when Adisyn is older to walk around and enjoy the ocean and pool a little more with her big brother.
