Present from the Reinholds

Aunt Vonda, Uncle David, Kendra, Braydon, and Gabriel gave Adaline a Disney Store gift card for her birthday. The minute she saw it she took it and ran into the next room into the corner to hide from me so she could keep her pretty princess card.

"Thanks, Reinholds! I love my card."
 
Adaline and mommy went to the Orem Mall to go to the Disney Store so Adaline could spend her money.

Adaline was so excited to be in an all Disney Themed Store, she went from one rack to the next just looking at all of these amazig things. She would stop and show me anything that would catch her eye.
It was really fun to see Adaline's awe of all the different things in the store. Adaline settle on a Disney Junior book that had stories of Sophia the First, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, and Doc McStuffins. Adaline really loved her gift and now she has a great book to enjoy for years. Thanks Reinholds!

Little Sissy Turned 6 Months!

The Tuesday following Adaline's Birthday, Cordelia turned 6 months old and we had to celebrate this wonderful milestone for little sister!

"I'm six months old, mommy? What does that even mean? Am getting bigger?"

Here is daddy helping little sister get her birthday cupcake open so she can eat it.

Cordelia did not even want to wait a few seconds. The minute she could get her fingers on her cupcake she was shoving it into her mouth.

Here she is getting started on it.
 
"Oh, daddy, this stuff is amazing. What do you call it? I want it everyday, ok?"

So good, so good!
 
"Mommy, this is incredible. Can I have it everyday?.... Please!"

Adaline thought sister digging into her cupcake was super funny and giggle as sister went to town on her Birthday cupcake.

Princess Sofia Dress-up

Mischa gave Adaline a Princess Sophia dress-up dress.

Here she is watching Sophia the First, dressed up in her out fit for showtime.

A really cute dress
 
My little girly girl, all decked out in her dress and crown to be a princess right along side her favorite show Sophia the First.

Sleeping Beauty

So gente and sweet

with two little hands and two little feet,
 

They grow so fast, you're afraid to blink
 

For we don't want to miss even a wink.
I love my little one whom I can hold close
but I know one day I'll miss that most,
for my little one will be grown up and gone
but time will never sever our bond.


Adaline Turns 2!

Adaline's Birthday starting with yummy pancakes and eggs for breakfast. That is what Adaline wanted to eat so we all had some.

Adaline says "Cheese" when she gets her picture taken and her face strunches up like this. Hilarious.

Mommy got the house all decorated for Adaline's party
 
Pink, purple, and lime green where the color theme.
 
Mischa came to help us finish off the touches of the party and got Adaline ready for her celebration.

We got a cake from Walmart that came with ten cupcakes. Just enough for everyone to enjoy one.

Most of Adaline's decorations were butterflies and we were lucky to find cupcakes with butterflies on them already so it was a no brainer to buy them instead of making them.

Grandma Kellersberger helped Adaline eat her cake. Adaline doesn' like to get her hands dirty and sticky so she was not one to smash her hands into her cake to eat it. So Grandma helped her eat some with a fork.

Adaline and Grandpa Kellersberger having a conversation about the yumminess of her cake!

Here is Adaline trying to eat her cake with her fork... hilarious to see her do this.

Grandpa Kellersberger tried to feed Cordelia some pizza... She loved it and kept wanting more and more.

Uncle Randy and Aunt Haley came to Adaline's party as well and enjoyed come cupcakes.

Adaline was so surprised that for her birthday she got her first bike to ride.

Daddy got her a Mini Mouse helmet and this really neat Radio Flyer red bike.

Adaline had so much fun with her new toys and all of her gifts she recieved from her loving and kind family.

Aunt Cynthia sent Adaline a Two Dollar Bill on her 2nd Birthday! We are going to keep this in her memory book so she will have it forever.


Here is a close up of the Minnie helmet daddy bought her. We hope that Adaline had great 2nd birthday with all her family: Grandma and Grandpa Kellersberger, Randy, Haley, Mischa, Colby, Kelsie, Johny, Rebecca, Mommy, Daddy, and Cordelia. We love you, Adaline.

Getting Ready for the Party

Adaline has reached the age where she wants to help every chance she gets. I don't want to discourage that spirit of service so each chance I get to involve her in baking, cleaning, or helping with Cordelia, I try to make sure she has a part to play. 

In preparation for getting ready for her birthday party we made some really fun cupcakes and Adaline help each step of the way.

We made some really fun colors with the help of Wilson neon food coloring from Walmart. It was fun to watch Adaline see the colors of the batter get brighter and brighter as we added coloring. It was fun to bake with her.

Daddy and his girls!

The girls love their daddy so much and really enjoy each moment they get to spend with him.

I love seeing the three of them together making memories.

Cordelia really loves to cuddle into her daddy's chest and falls asleep there often, to the sound of his reassuring heart beat.

Cory is such a great father and he really loves having two little girls to dought on. They are the apples of his eyes. I know their are going to learn wonderful habits and skills from their dad. Like honesty, kindness, love, affection, laughter, and humor. Cory is one incredible husband and father! I love you SA.
