Sitting High!

Miss Addison has come to the point where she really wants to know what is going on. Sitting in her swing or somewhere away from us during supper times are days of the past. So, I brought out the highchair and a few toys. She is one happy baby during our meal time.

And that makes this mommy happy...a warm meal with all of us together...ahhh, blessings!

Chew toys and drool...

No, I'm not referring to a puppy, but I'm talking about this adorable, blue-eyed cutie. She chews on everything that she can get her hands on. We go through about 10 bibs a day and several outfits because they are usually covered in slobber.

Teething?? Well...maybe. But, I don't see any evidence on her gums just yet. I wouldn't be surprised if one began popping through before too long, though.

Is it just me, or does the photo above make you just chuckle?

Baby Playdate

Yesterday we met up with one of my best buddies- Ms. D and her oh-so-adorable baby ZK. We had a delicious lunch date at Logan's and then took the kiddos back to our house for a little play time. Which means us mommies got a little talk time. Yeeha!

This time ZK and Addison actually realized there was another baby there and spent the time drooling on one another and checking each other out.



ZK is 10 days older than Addison. And I can tell that they are going to be big buddies.



Or maybe partners in crime (by the looks in this photo above- haha)

But either way, it makes me and Ms. D very happy :)

So much cuteness!!


And of course, Big sister Audrey helped take care of the babies and entertain them. She is such a wonderful and sweet sister.

When it was time to leave, Addison had to give ZK a little good-bye love.

AWW.....

Just in Case...

Just in case you were wondering if my girls were loved and spoiled....

Grammy purchased this outfit so you could be certain. :)

Addison- 4 Months Old

Addison turned 4 months old this past week. So once again, I want to document all the things about her that I want to remember. Time is passing so quickly, I'm afraid I'll forget :(

Sweet Little Bit,

You are growing up so quickly, right before my eyes. It seems that each morning when I pick you up from your bed, you had a growth spurt over night. Some things I want my heart to remember about you at this age:




You:
* are wearing size 2 diapers
* are wearing size 3-6 month clothes
* weigh 14 lbs. 7 oz.
* are 25 inches long
* always have a smile for me each morning when you wake up
* go to bed around 8:30-9:00 pm and sleep until 5:00 am, then you eat and go back to sleep until 8-9 am
* have found your voice, you squeal and "talk" all the time
* are quite the drama queen. You can turn those fusses and cries on and off so quickly. You will go from crying and having an all out fit to smiling in a moment when someone picks you up.
* are very aware of when mommy leaves the room and express your displeasure if I leave
* can sit up in your Bumbo seat and excersaucer very well. You enjoy spending time there (until you get bored, of course)
* love watching Dora with your big sister
* can roll from your belly to back and from back to belly. However, you roll easily from your back to belly then usually get "stuck" and get to mad to roll back the opposite direction
* think your daddy is so silly. He can just look at you and you smile
* giggle out loud when mommy "nibbles" on your belly when changing clothes or diapers
* do more whining like a puppy rather than crying...but you let us know frequently when you don't like something.
* are still a pretty content and laid back baby, but you are telling us more and more what you think :)
* grasps your toys and rattles and play with them
* have found your feet and love to hang on to them
* are fascinated with people's faces and try to grab anyone's nose or lips that are nearby.
* still love to grab mommy's hair
* put your little blankie up next to your face or over your face to go to sleep. Mommy has to take it out of your bed after you finally doze off


You are so special and such a blessing to our family. I am enjoying every moment that I get to love you, rock you, kiss on you and snuggle with you. You make my heart smile.
