12 Weeks a Catching Up


12 Weeks old! I can't believe our little Adalyn is 12 weeks and nearly 3 months old! She is such a joy. It is so fun to see the differences between her and Jackson's personality. I'll probably write a whole post about it!

Missy started sleeping through the night at around 9-ish weeks old. She still occasionally wakes up, but it's usually for her passy. She is a much lighter sleeper than Jackson. It's a good thing she is sleeping because I am officially back at work. I miss my sweet pea during the day. I enjoyed my leave with Adalyn so much. It is hard to leave her, but I feel better knowing she is the only baby in her day care class right now. She gets a lot of one on one attention! She is most certainly particular and she will let you know her preferences. She is a little diva already!

Jackson still loves his little sister. He hasn't shown any signs of jealousy at all. He sings to her when she is upset and tickles her tummy. It is so heartwarming to see them together. It is going to be so fun when she is a little older and they can play together. Jackson is making major strides in the potty training world. We're hoping to be fully trained in the next few weeks. :) That would make Mommy and Daddy's life so much easier to have one out of diapers/pull ups!



Miss my little cutie now that I am back at work!

Silly straw fun

Beach Babies!

Before I went back to work, I was hoping to take the kids on vacation. Luckily, Mimi, Papa and Aunt Ashley were thinking the same thing! We all took a fun trip down to Gulf Shores. It was so nice to get away for a little bit. Jackson loved the beach and Adalyn loved napping on the beach! It rained a few times, but that gave us a break from the beach. We shopped, golfed, went out to dinner, played putt putt, rode go karts and played on the beach. Jackson loved throwing shells into the ocean and kicking the water. By the last day, he was swimming in the ocean and he loved it! Papa even took him to hunt crabs one night. Though we didn't keep any for pets, he had a blast!

It was a great getaway. We enjoyed getting to take a trip with the Martin side of the family and we made so many memories!

Happy Two Months Adalyn! She is 11 lbs 3 oz and 22 inches long. Her head size is 15.75 cm. She is so so sweet! She is smiling more and more lately. She isn't sleeping through the night yet and there have been some rough rough nights, but it is coming along. Here is our sweet girl at the doctor's office!

One Month


Happy one month little lady! It seems like Adalyn's birthday was ages ago.  She is such a good little baby! We took her to her one month appointment at 5 weeks.  She weighs 9 lbs 6 oz (just under 75th percentile) , she is 21 inches long (50th percentile) and her head is 15 inches (90th percentile).
