A day at the park...

Today we went to the park and it was so... much fun! It was nice to FINALLY have warm enough weather so we could go on a walk. I'm sure we were quite the sight to see between all four strollers! I can't wait for the weather to stay warm so we can start going to the park a few times a week!

Addison LOVES going on walks. I love it when she smiles so big her eyes shut!

Addison and Graham

My mom took Graham's six month pictures Friday and I was so excited to get a picture with Addison and Graham. The only other picture we have of these two are from the hospital when Addison was born! Graham was very excited when we set Addison down next to him. He couldn't get enough of her and kept trying to kiss her head and grab her. It was so funny to watch! I am so happy we FINALLLY got a few pictures of these two!

3 months

I can't believe Addison turned 3 months last Monday. Time has gone by so fast. She has learned so many new things and thinks she is such a big girl. Some of Addison's new tricks are...
*giggles when she sees something that it funny
*almost is rolling over, gets to her side but can't quite make it all the way over
*looks as herself in the mirror and giggles (I don't think she understands that it's her)
*gets her two little hands in fists and shakes them so hard (mainly when she is really excited or really mad)
*LOVES to smile. I don't think I have ever met a baby who smiles more
*has really discovered her voice
*loves to stand (with us helping by holding her hands)
*has really discovered her hands and loves to grab everything especially my hair!
*for the most part is sleeping through the night!!!
I love Addison so much and can't imagine my life without her! She really is my little buddy. I am so grateful for having her in our lives and for being her mom! Here are a few pictures from Sienna's birthday a couple weeks ago...

All smiles...

I can't believe Addison will be 3 months next Monday. She is getting so big and is really starting to interact with us and we LOVE it! She is always smiling and even started to giggle last week! She has discovered her hands and loves to grab everything! We had her 2 month check up a couple weeks ago and here is where she is at:
Weight: 11 pounds 7 ounces- 62nd percentile
Height: 23 inches- 66th percentile
Head: 24th percentile
Some of Addison's favorite things to do are...

smiles at everyone
watches Baby Einstein and smiles so big that her eyes close!

taking a bath
getting all wrapped up after her bath
hanging out in her pajamas with her binki playing with her best friend (and cousin) Tessa. These two are only 3 months apart and they already LOVE eachother! It's so cute to watch them together!

Family Pictures

My mom took our family pictures a few weeks ago and I have just been slow about posting them. I am so lucky to have a mom who is such an AMAZING photographer. She got SO... many great pictures and I don't know how we are going to choose which ones to frame! Here are some from the session...






Addison & Bella have become little buds. Everytime Bella sees her she gives her a big kiss. This outfit was mine when I was little. We have a picture with me wearing it so we wanted to get one with Addison in it too!

4 weeks...

I can't believe Addison will be a month in 2 days! She is getting so big! It's amazing to see how much she has already changed in four short weeks! She is so much fun and I can't imagine my life without her!

The last few weeks....

Things have been so busy the last few weeks with the holidays and adjusting life with being a mom and having a baby. I am loving every minute of it and can't believe Addison will be 3 weeks tomorrow! Today we went for her first doctors appointment and she now weighs 8 lbs 9 oz. She is 49% in weight, 45% in height & 17% head circumference. She is already getting so big! Here are some pictures from the past few weeks.

Mini photo shoot at Trappers...
This past week we went up to our condo to spend New Years with my family. It was such a relaxing trip and my mom had lots of fun taking TONS of pictures of Addison. Here are just a few from up there.
