Food Fest

This is us when we went to Food Fest last weekend. The ethnic and culture clubs on campus cook various foods from their countries and you turn in tickets to try the food. We got Korean food of course. Bulgogi! Then we drove to town and watched the Aggies play the Warriors. The Aggies lost but we still had a great night. It was our Valenties celebration. And we bought Ady a little plastic phone so that she could have her own phone and stop chewing on ours. She still prefers ours though.

Adyson and her betty doll

This is Ady sleeping with her doll betty and Kasey sleeping with Ady. They look pretty cute laying there holding each other. We've all had this nasty cold and haven't done much lately except school and work. Ady was given this doll by some lady at the grocery store the other day and she just loves it.

Hey everyone, Ady wanted me to load this picture so she could wave and invite anyone who wants to come play with her at the beach. She loves the warm weather and would love to have her friends come play. You can even look at pictures of things to do in Hawaii on her other blog-vantastichawaii.blogspot.com. There's even a link to your right.

Ady loves the beach

Adyson loves playing at the beach. She likes it when the water comes up and her feet and legs get wet. She giggles and tries to chase the water when it recedes.

Adyson got your package Rachel. She loved it. Of course I was picking up torn pieces of wrapping paper all day after she decided to eat the packaging. She loved how when she stuck her finger in a hole then it made noise. She would stick her finger in, it would say something and then she would just giggle. It was more fun to watch her than it was to play the actual game.

mobility has its difficulties

This is Ady asleep. This is when we can get something done. Otherwise it's the "Ady show". At church today I looked away for a second and then when I looked back she wasn't there. (She had been sitting between my feet). Then I found her. She had crawled up front by the blackboard that the guy was using to teach his lesson and was using it to pull herself up. So I got up, I was sitting on the back row and we meet in the cultural hall-she had crawled a long ways, and had to get her. When she saw me coming she just smiled at me and everyone else. President Wheelright, the University President, was visiting our ward today. After church his wife who wasn't even in priesthood says to me, "looks like you got quite a handfull there". Adyson was only wearing her diaper then cuz towards the end of priesthood she blew out her diaper. I had to clean up the floor in the cultural hall after class. Earlier this week Adyson had a rough lesson in gravity. I had laid her down to take a nap and fell asleep next to her on our bed. Well she woke up before me and noticing I was asleep decided to be deviant. I'm not sure if she was planning on using my cell phone to make prank calls to China or just wanting to play with matches. But whatever her design was she was in such a rush to get away that she forgot about being on the bed. So I awoke with a start to the sound of the stroller crashing over. She had fallen into the stroller, which fortunately was next to the bed, and tipped it over and landed on her back. Naturally I explained gravity and a few other things that all kids need to learn to her. Hopefully she understands now, if not we'll have to design a power point presentation for her.

ATRIUS

Being that the weather is really nice and Adyson loves being outdoors we like to go on walks whenever possible. We call Adyson's stroller ATRIUS. It stands for All Terrain Rough-It-Up Stroller. We take it everywhere. And we don't need pavement or sidewalk to do so. Trails, across grass whatever and where ever. Adyson loves it. But we have discovered something weird. Other babies that we see in their strollers ride like the last picture, relaxed and leaning back. Not Adyson, She has two ways to ride. Either looking forward to see where we are going or looking up at us and trying to talk. As for non-stroller news Adyson can crawl on her hands and knees now. No more army crawl. And she has learned how to open cupboards and likes to get things out now.
