29 : 22 months old!!

Adelaide really liked her first watercolor painting experience.

She did it no less than three times today.

If a girl's got to paint, a girl's got to paint.

Today there was playing with "cookies" while wearing a box on the head. Not to mention yellow boots. It's all the rage, you know.

Today we tried on last year's winter hats. It was a little like The Three Bears, except I'm not sure we found one that was comfortable and/or fit.

First, we tried on the hat I knit for her to match her coat from last year. (This year's coat is green. Go figure.).

Oh, mama.

Oh wait. I kinda like it.

Except, what is this string? (Guess I need to finally finish that hat.)

And, no. I don't like it!

I do like this Halloween leftover. Bow wow.

But I really like Dada's hat best.

I really like it.

Warning: There's major cuteness ahead.

This photo is for Betsy and Clara. Note Clara's sandals and like Dada and his tennis shoes, dark socks.

Tough girl -- with a little scrape on her face -- had bangs all day today. We're not sure how that happened.

Jeff and Adelaide were pretty twinked today and were able to help out with the Steelers win!

And before dinner at G'ma's, there was playing in Vicki's truck.

Adelaide and Oliver spent the morning at City Park enjoying the sudden fall-like weather after a week of 80s.

We were comparing the small pine cone we found today with the large one (background) we found last year around this time. And yes, she knew she wasn't supposed to put it in her mouth, silly girl.

This is how we found Miss A this morning, wearing "Dada's yellow hat."

And later, she tried out the new (and probably temporary) placement of the garage sale yellow rocker which will likely be a porch chair.

We finished the day at the Fiddlers' Picnic. It was wet and cold but we still had fun listening to good music. Adelaide danced about quite a bit and played with a dump truck toy while its owner was taking a potty break.

This morning started out right: scrambled eggs, scones and singalong with Dada. Adelaide really likes sitting and standing in the guitar case. That is, when she's not strumming.

And y'all thought I forgot... No worries. There was just lots of play today, including the library, the pool (indoor) and the playground!

Adelaide shows Grandpa her yellow dump truck.

And after Dada came by, someone couldn't resist "no hands!" while standing on the couch.

In other adorable news, Adelaide has started saying "I love you" this week. Tonight she told Grandpa she loves him. Sweetness.

Adelaide was very excited to see the "big, yellow truck" in our drive way today. I was excited, too, as it means the ceiling fan and outlets are now working on the porch! We're one step closer!

This busy girl likes to push around her wheelbarrow and sing a little "Do, do, do, dee, do" song.

On a side note, today we stopped to watch a train go under the Summit Street bridge. The end of the train was missing its caboose! Adelaide didn't seem too affected when I told her the last enclosed cars were holding corn instead (there were a few spare grains on the top). Fast forward to tonight when she started talking about her train. And caboose. And corn. She doesn't skip a beat.

Bubbles, bubbles on my nose. Bubbles, bubbles on my toes.

Trying out the new spill-proof bubbles.

Joined at the hip, these three, some days. Adel, Mason and Adelaide play downtown on this crisp late summer morning.

Adelaide was greatly anticipating the arrival of Henry and Clara. Unfortunately for her, they rolled in just as her head was hitting the mattress. There's always tomorrow for fun and games.

Samantha has thrown down a blog-a-day challenge for September. We'll see how we do. Since this is Adelaide's blog, you'll likely see her mug for a good while going forward.

"Hello? Henry? Hi."
