Unplanned Family Vaca

2011-09-04T13:26:00.000-07:00

We decided to get out of the way of Hurricane Irene, so off our family went to Lynchburg, VA. First place we when was the Natural Bridge.

Then we headed to a drive thru Safari Park.

The next day we went to Poplar Forest. A home of Thomas Jefferson.

Alex 10 months!

2011-05-19T13:40:00.000-07:00

On the 8th Alexander turned 10 months! Its so hard to believe that he can be that old and as his gift to himself he started walking! Now he is walking all day, going from one thing to the next. He is very good on his feet, we say it's because of his extra long toes.

And he now has 6 teeth, you can see the top 4 in the pick.

The Oreo!

2011-01-05T12:25:00.000-08:00

So here is the story of the Oreo!

We gave Addy an Oreo for a special snack. When she was finished she asked for another,

so we gave her one more. I was heading up stairs and she asked for help I told her I would be right back down. Anthony was in the living room with the kids sitting behind the kids. So as I went up stairs he looked to see what was going on. It looked like Addy was trying to take something from Alex, but then he noticed Oreo on the floor and then he walked around in front of Alex and this is what he found. Alex had an Oreo in one hand and choc all over!

-Just so everyone knows we do not support Alex eating Oreos,

he is on a diet of Mommy's milk and rice cereal-

Playtime with Addy!

2009-10-21T10:07:00.000-07:00

Addison likes to put things in different places. This is a picture of our living room chair under the chair Addy put ALL of her blocks! One at a time she would put them under the chair she clapped after she was done! A few days ago Anthony took her to wash her hands and found around 15 cheerios under the door, which we leave closed. She much have put them one by one under the door. A few minutes later I when to the bathroom in that bathroom and while I was in there Addy came by and put her little hands under the door and take the cheerios out to eat them!

2009-08-04T12:25:00.000-07:00

In Everything!

2009-08-04T12:06:00.000-07:00

As Addison is growing up she is getting into everything!

Here is Daddy (Anthony) giving Addison a back ride for the first time!

Addy after her first Chocolate Chip Cookie!
Addison loves to dress up, here she is wearing Daddy's hat!

What can I say about this picture. I was making dinner and Anthony was still at work and Addison thought it would be funny to get into this tin, well once she was in the tin she could not get out so I had to come and help her out, we did this about 8 times and the 9th time I let her get out on her own! So she fell out!

Good Times

2009-07-22T11:27:00.000-07:00

Addison was watching Veggie Tales and I guess that she needed a chair so she made one. She turned over a basket of toys and make her own! At our playground!

2009-05-25T13:45:00.001-07:00

Our apartment pool opened this weekend and we took Addison swimming for the first time!

At first she did not like being in the water, probably because the water was a little cold. But once we both got in with her she really started to enjoy it! She kicked her legs most of the time!

Back from the pool, we had lots of fun!

Other than Birthdays we have not been busy. Anthony works half the week and Addison and I stay home most days. We have enjoyed spending time with some new friends in VA and at home. Here are some of the things that Addy has been doing:

Standing! She would stand all day. She pulled herself up to standing on her own!

Playing video games with Daddy!

Army Crawling! Or should she be Air Force crawling!?

She has even started playing in her crib!

Playing with Mommy! The things moms do to keep babies happy while we they cook!

Our Tree!Addison did a great job when it was time to open her first gift. It was her Santa gift/Christmas eve gift- I heart Santa PJs!

Anthony is the beat husband ever! He with some help from my mom, found the 1st rocking horse in my collocation. I could not believe it, I cried! Our Family!

I set our Christmas up like my families. Santa gift, Addy got an Animal Parade, then gifts, breakfast, then stockings.Addison and her stocking!

She did not care, she wanted to play with the paper from the gifts.

Nothing is Safe Now!!

2008-12-14T12:05:00.000-08:00

Addy is getting into everything. She has learned to pull up onto her knees.

Here is she 'helping' mommy pack for our trip to OK!

She was sitting next to the suitcase and pulled herself into it!

While playing in her crib she pulled herself up onto her knees.

Sailor Smiles

2008-12-14T11:59:00.000-08:00

Addison has two different smiles and I was able to get a picture of both when I took pictures of Addy in my (Mindy) old Sailor Outfit.

Santa!

2008-12-03T18:22:00.000-08:00

We took Addison to go meet Santa. Anthony and I both thought that she would do fine, no crying, maybe not all smiles but that's not what happened. She was not ok with sitting on his lap so they took a pic quick before she got to upset. She is still cute!

Play time!

2008-11-23T12:16:00.000-08:00

This past week Addy and I went on our first play date. It was with three great ladies from church and their sweet babies. I did not take any pictures while there but we did take a few when we got home. We both had a wonderful time building new friendships.

Addison can be a big help to her Mommy. She pulled the basket down herself!

Addison is 6 months!

2008-11-09T18:42:00.000-08:00

As always we took Addison's pictures with her Birthday Bear!

Strike A Pose! She looks like she is getting her picture taken at a photo studio, move your head to the left just a little bit more.

Anthony and Addison
Addison and Mindy

Happy Girl!

Addy is growing up so fast. We can't believe that our baby girl is 6 months!

Addison Jumper The Jumper

2008-11-09T18:35:00.000-08:00

Addy's favorite thing to do is jump! Anytime you told her up so she can stand, she will start to jump. So we got her a jumper. The minute her feet hit the floor she started jumping!

Addison rolled over to "The Mayflower" all by herself and played with the sails and hammock.

1st Food -- Rice Cereal

2008-11-06T12:12:00.000-08:00

They say mommy knows best, well I felt like it was time for Addison to start eating real food, or as real as rice cereal can be. The doc told us to wait to start foods until 6 months, we where a week early but I knew Addy was ready and she was! First bite here we go...

...Not sure...
GOOD STUFF!
She loves it! She can't wait for the next bite. That makes for a happy mommy!

All done! Let me do it next time!
