Adelina's 6 week Birthday

Today Adelina is 6 weeks old! I am not sure how time went by so quickly, but already our little baby is no longer the little newborn. She is now a ten pound girl who smiles, can sit up with support and who can just about crawl (she tries so hard whenever she is on her stomach).

To celebrate the day, we drove to Philadelphia and visited a few of our favorite places. We stopped and got lunch at Tommy Guns BBQ (best we have tasted this side of the Mason Dixon) and took our BBQ and fixins' to Wissahickon Park for a picnic. It was not quite as leisurely as in the past; coordinating two adults eating with two curious dogs and one hungry and curious baby is no easy task. After eating, we walked along the trail. The girls obviously loved it and Adelina took the whole thing in before eventually falling asleep. On our way home we stopped by Marcianos (an Italian bakery by our old house) and picked up some breads and a tomato pie.





All in all it was a great day. It was nice to be outside and to be out as a family.

Here is a quick video taken from our walk:

So fun! I can imagine that it's very different from the old days, but what an adventure to have ALL your girls with you and juggling the action! Happy 6 weeks, Adelina!

Happy Birthday, Adelina. The time is flying by. You're growing so fast. Great video. Grandma even enjoyed watching it. She thinks Adelina is beautiful.
