Adelaide was five months old yesterday. She celebrated by going over to her grandma's condo for a visit. (Actually, we celebrated by having a grown-up date.) Unfortunately, she cried a lot. She may have been tired (notice a pattern in the posts about resisting naps?) or it may have been that she isn't used to the condo. She hadn't been there since Christmas, and she just kept looking around as if to say, "This isn't my home!" She's planning on visiting grandma's place more (instead of just the other way around).
Saturday, Addie and her friend Sydney had a playdate(along with my friend Kristin and I). We went for a long walk to and around Lake Como. That was three miles (with a quick snack break for all at the coffee shop on the lake). It was the first time Addie has made that trip on the OUTSIDE. I told her how she had made that same trip almost every day her whole life on the INSIDE. It was so warm and nice!!!! Addie also enjoys walks at her daycare. They put 6-8? babies on a special wagon equipped with baby seats. That is pretty precious. Daycare is going better - I mean, I'm getting more used to it anyway. We're tempted to buy the cool swing they have there, it is magic for her sleeping, but she'll grow out of it so soon.
She learned a new screeching sound - it's hard to explain. We think it means, "Look at me! Pay attention to moi!" because she screeches when she's happy and really mad. It is still kind of cute for now, but it could get old. She doens't roll over stomach to back very often - she rolls over back to side, and is really working on rolling back to stomach. She loves standing in her exer-saucer.
