Some More Words

This video isn't going to win cinematography awards, but if you listen closely you can hear a few of Adelina's new phrases!

Weekend

It was an action-packed weekend in the Schmitt Haus. Adelina had the pleasure of spending Friday with Papa (and Mama had the pleasure of an evening out with friends!). Saturday the whole family travelled to South Milwaukee to visit Grandma and Grandpa Kondziella. We made a delicious steak dinner and enjoyed a bonfire. As usual, Adelina was spoiled rotten. She received numerous outfits, several swimsuits (including a scandalous bikini that Papa might not let her wear), a swimming pool, floaties, and beach toys! Now we just need the temperature to cooperate! Sunday, we went to the Brewers vs. Cardinals game and - miracle of miracles - the Crew won the game 5-3!

Easy Rider

It's that glorious time of year when you have to take the hog out of the garage, dust off the cobwebs, change the oil, etc. so you can get outside and just ride!

Sweet Walking Skills

Check out Adelina's sweet walking skills.

She's graceful even with her pants pulled half-way up her back!

My Day

Here's a glimpse into Adelina's day:

6:30 a.m. - Rise and shine
6:45 a.m. - First breakfast (orange yogurt)
7:30 a.m. - Arrive at day-care
8:30 a.m. - Second breakfast (2nds on coffee cake, 2nds on applesauce, most milk)
10:00 a.m. - Outside playtime! Yipee!
11:30 a.m. - Lunch (some enchilada, 2nds on bananas, 3rds (!) on corn, most milk)
12:10 p.m. to 1:35 p.m. - Nap time in sleeping bag (snuggled with Kaden)
2:30 p.m. - Snack (2nds on rice crispies, all milk)
3:00 p.m. - Outside playtime
4:45 p.m. - Mommy!

We arrived home at 5:15 p.m. and planted our seedlings. Then we went inside and scrubbed dirt from our fingers, ears, face, toes, etc. We ate scrambled eggs and peaches for dinner. Then we read every single book in the bedroom and went to bed at 7:00 p.m.

Can't wait to do it all over again...Goodnight!

Poppa's Birthday!

Happy 27th birthday Joel!
Since you're working in the Great North, Adelina said she'd see you in her dreams!

Happy May Day

Happy May 1st! Sorry for the lack of blogging lately. Adelina caught a cold that spread to her eyes (ick) and then she was so kind to share it with both of her parents. As you can see from the videos, she's growing up fast: learning new words and walking like a fool. Hope you're having a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by!
