on tuesday, november 6, adeline started walking! she has been standing on her own for the past 4 months or so but she finally got brave enough to take some steps. she wasn't sure what she thought about it at first but now she loves it and rarely crawls anymore. we love to see her walk into a room, it is still very funny to us. although this was a sad milestone it was also a very exciting one. we love our little cruiser!
a few weeks ago i decided to get adeline some crayons and a giant coloring book because she loves to use a pen with austin's help. i knew she was a little bit small to start coloring but i thought it was worth a try. it was so cute to watch her color. she really enjoyed it and did a great job. i thought we found a great little activity for her until she quickly tried to eat one when i wasn't looking. needless to say, we're taking a break from the crayons until she's a little bit older.

adeline is really sleepy after church on sundays. it's prime-time for cuddles. her dad especially loves to hold her when she's sleeping.

today we went to get a christmas tree. our little addie found a few favorites right away! we think that bottom picture captures our inner-city urban christmas.
