New things!

This past weekend Adelyn has done some new things! Saturday morning her 1st tooth popped through! i was sooo excited i was screaming and yelling and scared my poor baby. the second one isnt far behind. it is about ready to pop through as well. She also started crawling forward this. she is still a little unsure, but is totally getting it. I now need to "babyproof" my house. (yes i know ashley for Ava too) lol she also started to feel herself peas, carrotts, and fruit medly. Before she would just play with it b/c she was unsure, but now she full flegde feeds herself :) My baby is getting sooooooo big. it's crazy. Before we know it, she will be walking and turning 1!!

We are getting her nine month pictures taken next month. My sister in law Jessica is doing them. she does wonderful work. We are getting some of her in her super cute easter dress. we are taking her to a local park to shoot them. We are praying for nice weather.

We also planned our 1st small family vacation. We are heading down to STL to take Adelyn to her 1st Cardinals game. (B is an avid cards fam and def wants to take her) We are then heading to the STL zoo also. I am excited for her to see new things. She has funny expressions so it should be intersting to see what she thinks of the vacation.

Everyone have a quick easy going work week. TTYL

Anothe week @ the Klokkenga household

playing w/ my buddy Ava.

all clean in my bunny robe!


This the newest of many faces I makes now !


Sundays are amazing around our house. Sunday is our "funday". We do all sorts of new things as a family. Today we went to the Riverman hockey game w/ my work. it was a good time.
Adelyn is babbling up a storm still these days. She has added to her vocabulary.. momma, dadda, byebye, and baba. she has also started to crawl backwards. we still dont have any teeth. LOL anymore I'm wondering if she's ever going to get them. i know she still has plenty of time. :) she has quite the personality. she has recently started throwing fits and getting upset when I walk out of the room or I am leaving. I was reading in one of my books that this is the age that seperation issues start. I dont look forward to dropping her off @ the baby sitters and she crying for me. That will be rough for me. :( We have started her a little on table food. she isnt quite sure of texture w/ the food yet. she still acts like she's gagging somewhat, but we are working on it. Boy she can put away some baby food though. she still LOVES gerber oatmeal.
We have started the "getting our house ready to sell" process. We arent sure if we are going to buy a house or buy some land. So if we decied to buy some land.. we might be making a couple moves. UGH but we are taking ALOT of factors into considerdation this time. I told our realtor that he will probably hate me by the time this is otherwith b/c I am going to be SUPER picky as to where we move and what we move into. This will be a house/neighborhood our kids will grow up in and go to school etc. so we shall see what the future brings us. well I am off to get Adelyn to bed. Hope everyone has a good/fast work week. and YEAH For a nice weekend weatherwise!! :)
<3 B, Erin, and Addy

rainy days!! :(

there isn't too much to report around the Klokkenga household. Just a few things. Adelyn is getting closer and closer to walking. she takes steps as long as me or B are holding onto her hands. She is becoming more mobile by the minute.
We have had sooo many rainy days. It's driving me nuts. I want to take Adelyn outside to enjoy the weather, but not when it's raining. We are soooo ready for Spring/Summer. We went and bought her Easter dress. It is adorable. I will be sure to post pics of her in it.
We had our realtor come out and give us some pointers on what we should do to sell our house. to say the least... we have ALOT to do. Painting, clean carpets, dejunking drawers, getting rid of the clutter and the list goes on and on. We are shooting @ April 1st to officially put it on the market. So that means these next 3 week/weekends... we are going to be busting our butts getting it ready. We are more than ready to move into a nicer neighborhood.
well just alittle update. I had better get back to work.
THINK SPRING!!
Love The Klokkenga's
