We continue our epic journey at Nana and Grandpa's house, where we arrived just in time for Caturday breakfast after a long night of driving! Adalyn was accosted by several new kitties and two dogs, and of course, Adalyn LOVED the four-legged attention. Adalyn even met Firefly, the last of the ponies, and some cows, who were very polite and kept their distance.
Adalyn then met Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Patricia's dogs, and when these dogs came rushing up at her barking, Adalyn laughed! The more the dogs barked at her, the more Adalyn laughed! And Adalyn had to endure the horrific torture of her toes getting huffed by them! Oh the humanity!
Adalyn also got to meet new things of the two-legged variety - Aunt Patricia and Vivienne! Adalyn had to wait her turn though to get acquainted with Vivienne...
|
Vivienne finally understands what it means to be snorgled by Aunt Brenna! Muwahahahahaha! |
|
Nana holds Adalyn hostage until Adalyn shows her new teefers to everyone. Adalyn coyly sticks to her gums (har har). |
|
It's Grandpa's turn to examine the elusive teefers! Adalyn still doesn't budge. |
|
The camera saves Vivienne from a massive snorgling from Uncle Michael. |
Finally, it's Adalyn's turn to meet Vivienne, and the two hit it off like they've known each other for years...
|
Awwwwww..... |
|
"Only one hug per customer, lady..." |
|
Adalyn gives Vivienne a tour of the farm facilities. |
|
Adalyn checks to see if Vivienne has any chicken fairies. What's a chicken fairy? A chicken fairy is like the tooth fairy except it's a constant companion in your hair that works very hard at night to give you the chickens that you see every morning. Chicken fairy apprentices learn their trade on baby hair. |
|
Adalyn makes a break for it while no one is watching. I mean, seriously, who wants to play on a Red Raider blanket anyway? |
|
Adalyn discovers that the baby in the mirror has a little bit more contour than she's used to. |
|
Vivienne gives a warm welcome to the jumperoo newcomer. |
|
Vivienne takes a closer look at what all this serious business is about. |
|
"Hey! This is just like my jumperoo at home!" |
|
Adalyn and Vivienne practice various skydiving positions. |
|
Kissing cousins...awwwwwww! Adalyn actually planted a big, wet one on Vivienne! |
|
Adalyn tries to attack Vivienne with drool. |
Place your bets, people, and welcome to the Walker Races 5000! Let's introduce today's racers!
On the left, we have the challenger, Adalyn von Hoffenhoeder, the Restless. This is Adalyn's first time on the track today, but she's not letting that slow her down. Adalyn's been pulling up 100 times a day at high altitudes to prepare for this race. Let's just hope this gives her the edge she needs to win today.
And on the right, we have the reigning champion, Vivienne Varoom III. In her spare time, Vivienne digs tiny dogs out of her bumper - hey, it's not her fault she's so fast that they didn't see her coming!
Okay, on your mark, get set, GO!
|
The racers fine tune their walkers in preparation for the race. This includes adding spoilers and adjusting downforce levels for maximum performance. |
|
There appears to be a collision on the track. The racers furiously scramble to reenter the race. |
|
Adalyn has one hand on the gear shift and the other hand on the...uh...spinny thingy. We don't know what it does, but it looks important. |
We've finished Round 1, and we're getting ready for Round 2. Round 2 introduces obstacles in our racer's path, including dogs, shoes, and random spectators that should've made that left turn at Albuquerque.
|
Adalyn poses for her Wheaties promo. |
|
Adalyn looks over her shoulder as she throws it into reverse. |
Okay, so we never had our Walker Races, but we had a great time of Baby Bumper Cars! Vivienne would take one look at our unsuspecting Adalyn, get up to ramming speed, and WHAM! Okay, it was a teeny wham, and Adalyn would just look up as if a fly just bumped into her. Fun was had all around, and Adalyn has issued a challenge for next time they meet up!
On her down time, Adalyn's been exploring her new world, discovering new toys and new skills.
|
"Oh, hey, was that your leg I just ran over? I thought it was a big speed bump!" |
|
Adalyn is drawn to the baby's version of Disneyland. |
|
Oops, looks like someone turned out the lights...what could that be in the background? |
|
TADA! Lights are back on! Ah! We see Aunt Patricia and Vivienne! And apparently Adalyn is way too fast for the camera...whoosh! |
|
Adalyn shows off her amazing ability to stand on her tiptoes. |
|
Adalyn lounges and takes it easy after a long day of playing. |
|
Adalyn tries to show off her teefers, but her tongue gets in the way yet again. |
When you're a busy girl on the move, you have to take time out to eat. The pictures below illustrate a typical day in the life of Adalyn eating.
|
"Check, please!" |
|
Adalyn is caught watching TV while she noms on a bottle. |
|
Adalyn puts a puff in her mouth and gives a puff to each of her adoring fans. |
Next up: Brenna's Family!
