11 months!!!

I honestly can't believe that it has been 11 months since THIS angel:

came into my life. 

She is a joy. 

She's making great progress!

I remember in college I would meet up with a friend to run or bike. We would drive up the canyon to a little trail and ride up and then back to the car before our classes started. There were so many times (it wasn't a big hill, we were just out of shape) that I remember saying, "slow and steady wins the race".

I often feel like this is Adalyn's motto. She's moving at her own pace, but she's moving. She's making progress, bit by bit.

Not actually today, but you get the 'picture'

Today some exciting things that she did were:

- Played with toys in her highchair with both arms extended all the way out to the toys.

- Did tummy time for 25 minutes without CRYING!

- Sat unassisted for 15 seconds

- smiled, giggled, made a sound Talon swears was "da-da", and talked up a storm!

again, not today, but look at her!

Are these the normal 11 month old things... nope. But were we excited? You better believe it! 

Loving that miracle baby. Every day, more miracles surround her life, just as they surrounded her birth.
