July

I am going back into July for this post because I realized I have a few pictures from then. My SIL and brother were in town for their summer vacation and I turned 26. So, a few fun things happened.

My mom and I practically share the same birthday so we always share the celebration.

My mom's homemade icecream being made. It is my all time FAVORITE dessert and I could eat the whole thing by myself.
A few more pictures of Addison with my mom and dad. I think these are the last of them. :(


David and Heather Heather just recently had her own baby girl. Kate and Addison are going to be the best of friends. They are actually blessing their Kate today and I am sad I can't be there. Love you guys!

And this next picture is for you David. :) You are such a stud. Just for you I put this picture as my wallpaper. :)

Socks

Addison has this thing where once I put her socks on, they have to come off and go straight to her mouth. I feel terrible because her feet are always cold but maybe she is like me and loves her feet sock less and cold.

Trying to get her socks off...

Taking a little break with one sock off...

One happy little girl now that both socks are off!

Sheesh

Oh my goodness I am getting so far behind on my blog. I have all of these pictures from the holiday season and by the time I get around to posting them it will already by a new holiday season! Sheesh.

Hopefully after this post I will have our life updated to September...ish. Of course this post includes lots of pictures. And more are to follow.

Yep too cute. This was our first walk outside. I couldn't help but laugh because Addison kind of looks like...a bum. Or maybe just a baby dressed by my awesome dressing talents. And I just noticed this, lol she has a bib on! Okay... maybe I just think that is funny.

These next pictures aren't the best but really they are some of the only pictures of Addison and my mom!! I just get too distracted to take pictures when my mom is holding Addison. And my 'awesome' picture taking skills are totally evident in these next couple of pictures. But like I said, they are pretty much the only pictures of my mom and Addison so I have to post them.

This is just a random picture.

We wanted to see if Addison is bigger than my sister's cat yet. The cat still to this day has 4lbs on Addison. 4!!! And she is a cat!

Addison LOVES to sleep. She loves to take long naps and loves to sleep through the night. By nighttime her eyes look like this because she is so tired. And this is at 7pm!

I am not sure what this is a picture of, (well Addison obviously) but how can it not make you laugh.

My curious happy baby!

Addison had this thing, and sometimes still does, where she liked to put here had over her eyes whenever she ate. I couldn't tell if it was to say, 'I am so tired', or 'leave me alone', or something like, 'being a baby is so hard'. But it sure was cute.

Newborn

Here are all the rest of the Addison's newborn pictures. I think. I tried to organize all of the pictures I have of her so if a few stragglers pop up in the next couple of posts, I apologize. Addison's 'younger' pictures aren't my favorite but considering how 'well' I felt, I am just glad that I have some. And if there are duplicates in these next couple of posts, lucky you right?

Lately, I just keep taking more and more pictures of Addison and keep getting more and more behind. So I am just trying to group everything together and get them all posted! Have fun looking at the new love of my life!

Fed and asleep. What more could a newborn want?

Addison is a HUGE spitter upper. Every feeding she spits up, oh, at least 3 - 6 times. Still even today that happens. I am now quite used to spit up being all of my shirts, couch, carpet, carseat, anywhere, you name it. But I did try to keep Addison dry for awhile with a bib. That is why a lot of her pictures she is wearing a bib. I got tired of changing her SOAKING clothes. However, she still spits up on herself today but at least it dries before she goes back to sleep.

Almost and a Happy New Year

Well I didn't make my goal of updating my blog before the new year. Having to give a talk at church tomorrow kind of put a bump in my schedule. However, I guess that just means that I will have a whole bunch of new posts for January!

I want to end this year with my favorite picture, here is Addison sleeping.

The picture says it all.

Happy 2011 and here is to a fabulous 2012!

Long Time Coming

So I finally have all of my pictures from the summer together and I am ready to update my blog!!! A Christmas miracle? I think so! My goal was to have my blog updated by the end of the year so there will be many posts to come in the next 24 hours. Um, on a side note, I also have to write a talk for church on Sunday so if someone would love to help me and write that for me, They would be the best!! Any takers...

Here are some more pictures of Addison in the hospital and mainly of all of our visitors. We had so many great family members and friends that came up to visit our new little package, she is lucky to have so many people that already love her. I didn't get pictures of everyone but here is a great number of her visitors.

I love this pictures because it was taken a few hours after she was born. She is definitely my little chubbers here.
She is awake!
