Smell the Flowers

Adrienne has this adorable way of 'smelling' things, where she scruntches up her nose and loudly blows air out through her nose on whatever it is we are trying to convince her to smell. I think she adopted this strategy because she thinks all things smell bad and warrant an exaggerated "PEEEE EEEWWWW". I believe the history of this stems from a smell-your-feet-game for which we can thank Aunt Kelly for introducing. Adrienne thinks it's hilarious. The down side is that if you put your nose  anywhere within a legs-radius of Adrienne's foot, you will likely have a small dirty sole shoved in your face. Let me tell you now that even though 20 month old feet are small and adorable, those puppies can still bark. I would advise you to attempt Adrienne's "sniff out" policy should you find yourself in this unfortunate situation. 

Despite this association of smell = yuck, we took Adrienne out for a Stop-and-Smell-the-Flowers walk. I'm not sure she got the idea that she was supposed to be enjoying the experience.  She looks more like she is about to devour it. Well, either way, here's wishing that you get a chance to either enjoy or devour your weekend as appropriate. As an aside, thanks to everyone for making this a great birthday. All the thoughts and wishes and cards really make a girl feel special!!

  1. haha! Aidan does the same thing when we ask him to smell something. That used to be the face he made when saying the letter S as well. Adrienne is super adorable.
