Week 51

uh ohhh...1 more week, and we are very excited. Addyson is only a week away from her first birthday. We will be having a party on Saturday to celebrate. Mom has already done a test birthday cake and cookies, Dad loves the testing part.

Addyson helping to hold the paper, sooo not helpful!!
Here is a picture of Addyson trying to wear Dad's shoes.

Addyson hanging out drinking a bottle, sort of looks like some of the guys I see sitting up at the bar. It is nice however that she can hold her own bottle, and we don't have to hold it the whole time.

This is a video of Addyson playing in the kitchen, she discovered the other day how to open a couple of drawers in the kitchen, so now she is trying other doors. This one is under the sink, so we have child locks on it. She luckily hasn't figured out how to do the child locks, and Dad sometimes forgets how to do them too.

Week 50

Week 50 was another busy one, so we don't have a great deal of photos to share this week. But don't fear, we will have a big week coming just 2 weeks away!! someone is going to turn 1 year old, hard to believe!! Dad is working on a little 1 year slide show to share, so stay tuned.

Addyson did not feel the greatest this weekend - as you can tell in the picture below. A bit of a cough, runny nose and a tooth pushing its way through.

Addyson trying to give us the paper after taking pictures, she is soooo helpful!
We tried brushing teeth this week, she likes to watch herself in the mirror, and flashes those little teefers, fun stuff.

Week 49

Week 49 went by in a flash...it was a quick week and time got away from us. Sorry for the late update to the blog this week. However, you may need to get use to blog entries that are not weekly - week 52 is quickly approaching.

Addyson is on the move! She crawls to whatever she can pull herself up on and then "cruises" around those things. She also just starting to stand up on her own. She only does it for a couple of minutes - a lot of fun when she realizes what she is doing.

Here is Addyson in her new clubhouse - the dish washer. So far she enjoys helping mom do the dishes - we are training her well. Unfortunately we weren't quick enough to take the picture of her actually crawling into the dishwasher. I'm sure there will be a next time.

Just another cute picture.... oooh you little stinker!!
Only one video this week, this was a lot more funny the first 15 times Dad did it. Ohhh, he could probably do this all day!!

Week 48

Week 48 was a cold one, we got some snow and finally decided to put on the snow suit and head out. Let's just say Mom and Dad were way more excited about it than Addyson. Hopefully next time she will be more excited about the snow. Enjoy the photos below.

ohhh that little tongue..she gets that from her Mom....or maybe from Dad, either way I think she gets it honestly!!

Not a happy camper to be out in the snow.

Tried to lay her down and do a Snow Angel, she didn't see that happening anytime soon. Just a random picture hanging out with Mom, wow she is getting big!
Just before heading out, as you can see, Mom was really excited, Addyson not so much.

Her suit is just a little too big, we had to really pull her arms out of the sleeves, then we discovered that the sleeves can fold down and be like mittens, so we did this and it worked out great.

Aunt Mallorie came over and dressed Addyson up for going hunting, her camo sweatshirt and Grandpa's little huntin' buddy bib. Now she is all set for hunting.

Addyson on her first snow day!!

Week 47

Happy New Year!!

It has been a nice quiet week between Christmas and New Years.

Grandma Rhonda watched Addyson so Mom and Dad could go out to see a movie and have dinner. The rest of the weekend we just played with our new toys from Christmas.

If that isn't an ornery look I don't know what is.
Trying on wedding dresses for Aunt Lindsey's wedding in April.

Dad and Addyson like this one the best.
