5 weeks!

Adalyn is 5 weeks! I can't believe it. 

My baby girl is already 5 weeks old.  Time is going way too fast.  We are trying to soak up every moment with our sweet baby, because she is growing so quickly.  We decided to do some Mommy and me pictures, because Mommy is always taking the pics.  

Adalyn celebrated her first Easter (which was technically week 5, even though we put pics under week 4) and got her first Easter basket from Grandpa Scott.  

This week Adalyn's cries are becoming more distinct and I can tell her hungry cry from her dirty diaper cry.  She is still chewing on her hands and has gagged herself a couple of times.  She is making even more noises this week: cooing, oohs, giggles, and squeals.  I love hearing her new sounds!  She has started to push with her legs during tummy time and when being held.  She loves to kick you when being held too.  

Mommy and Daddy went out for their first date night this week, while Nugget stayed with Granny.  This was the first time we were away from her for more than an hour.  She did great!  Mommy had a harder time, but had fun at the movies, eating sushi again, and going out for dessert!
