Adeline is four month old, and we've left her three times now. Some of you may think I am crazy for one of two reasons why did I wait so long, and on the other hand crazy because I left her so soon. It was once for a sealing, we went to dinner and a movie, and then dinner with friends. We planned a dinner group, and did a scavenger hunt. We had a great time. I am still not sure who won, but I wanted to post some pictures. It's hard for me to leave her. Tim doesn't seem to mind as much. He is more laid back about that. However, he is very protective when other kids are around. He is very concerned, He wants to make sure they don't hurt her. I am not as protective in that sense. I just had a hard time leaving her when she was so small. Now that she refuses to take a bottle it's even harder ... I worry. My sister watched her while we went to our dinner groups her, and Carol (Tim's Mom) had been looking forward to watching her. My sister thinks Adeline is a piece of cake. She took a bath with her cousins. When she cried Mark gave her a new toy, and she was happy. She just sat in her seat all through dinner, and while Keri cleaned up. She was just watching them. Keri had to rock her for ten minutes, and then she was asleep. Beth watched her while we were at the sealing. She said she wined a little, refused the bottle and loved it when she talked to her. She commented on how social she thought she is going to be. I think Adeline might have been a bit tougher for Carol and Jerry when they watched her. They mentioned how she was laughing a lot when she was taking a bath with Lily. After she was crying a lot, and once Jerry finally got her to sleep he didn't want to move at all because he didn't want to wake her up. Here's a Thanks to everyone whose watched Addie!

You are so lucky you have some good babysitters. We had some great friends in Cali who we switched with, but I have only left a boys with someone once while we've lived here - Brigham Burton lol! He did great though. I have a trust issue, so it's my own fault. I do love spending time alone with Justin and I take full advantage of it when we have visitors or when we visit Utah. It's so important. Good for you.
We had a great time watching Addie and look forward to many more fun times together. Yes, Addie is a piece of cake! I have had fussy babies and she is nothing like them.
Abbie Brigham Burton? That is too funny...I'd love to hear that story. Thanks Keri I am so glad you think she's nice...we do too:)
