Thought I'd do a quick blog of Miss Adley and her monthly pictures. It was definitely a challenge, but I'm so glad we captured these photos of her each month. And I have to give a shout-out to Chris, as he was always in the background trying to make her smile.
As any parent would attest, you rapidly forget how tiny your baby is and how quickly they grow up in such a short time period. All I can say is WOW on how fast the year has passed. Our princess was dubbed "Perfect Adley" after just 2 weeks of being born. At 3 months she was sitting up in the Bumbo seat. She was rolling over by 4 months and started eating solid food at 5 months. By 6 months, she was finally sleeping 8-10 hours straight through the night. She could sit up on her own at 7 months and her favorite "trick" at 9 months was clapping. We had a walker on our hands at 10 months. By 11 months, she established that her best bud was Hudson. Now we have a Miss Independent little lady that wants to feed herself and put herself to sleep...cuddling is for the babies. She sleeps 12+ hours and even though she only has two teeth, she will eat anything in sight. She is captivated by all books and loves to walk around holding a baby doll. She knows what she wants and she refuses to wait for it. She takes no prisoners and endlessly reminds Hudson who is in charge. I fear for her teenage years! But we could not be more excited to cheer her on and watch her dreams come true as she grows up.
Rolling over like a boss at 4 months!
At 6 months, she finally hit the 50th percentile for weight. But she was still a pipsqueak at 25th percentile in height.
Walking at 10 months, so sitting did NOT make her happy!
She's now 50th percentile height and weight (28.5 inches and 21 lbs 5 oz) and undoubtedly our favorite daughter. We can't wait to see what the next year has in store! And she had professional photos done last week so stayed tuned to see the bright obnoxious pink tutu I put her in. Shout-out to Aunt Sam for buying it for her...it was perfect!!
