Nest for TV watching

Addie is in LOVE with this Elmo video, that has to do with potty training. We haven't even started that whole deal, but I put the video in since it was Elmo and now she requests watching it 10000 times a day. So here she is laying on the floor watching it. The comforter and bedskirt are being donated to Goodwill, but she realized that they would make a comfortable "nest" to hang out in...

New Furniture

We bought some things for our living room. The rug is new and so it the electric fireplace and the vertical lighting. Now all Robert has to do is paint... Maybe he can do that when he takes FMLA, when the baby is born.

1st childhood illness

Ok - well it's not TOO major. Addison had roseola last weekend. It's a high fever and then followed by a rash. You only get it once in your life, so I guess we can check that one off of the list. She felt really bad last Sunday and just wanted to be held. She even fell asleep on me, which never happens. Robert took last Monday off of work to help me with Addie incase she was still not felling well. She woke up Monday morning like her usually self. So we just had a fun day playing at the park and running errands.

Corn on the cob

More Deer Pictures

** No deer or children were harmed during the taking of these photos!!

Wildlife Encounter

At my parent's house there are tons of deer. We usually NEVER feed them, but a mother will do anything for a photo op....

ROAD TRIP

Robert, Addie and I drove to Colorado last week to pick up our pop-up camper. Addie did amazing in the car. We bought lots of little toys and such to keep her occupied. We also stopped every two hours or so. We are super proud of her! Here are some pics from the stops along the way.

Big Girl Bed

Well, we are starting on getting Addie into a big girl bed, as we hope not to buy another crib when the baby gets here. So here she is showing us how she can get down.

Blackboard #2

Here is another cute video of her drawing on her blackboard.

Here is Addie drawing on her blackboard. She is really good at making tally marks :)

What's in Mommy's Belly

Baby's Room

The painting is finished in the babiy's room. Here are some pictures. We will hopefully be moving the changing table out of Addison's room, to make room for her "big" girl bed sometime this weekend. So cross your fingers that that process goes well. We will have her crib and a full size bed in her room for alittle bit, so she can adjust. Let's hope it makes it easier :)

The Baby's room - under construction

Here is what we have done so far, I still have the green dots to paint and then we will be finished.

Yummy Plum

We got our produce from the organic co-op on Saturday and Addie couldn't wait to dig in. She took my plum and ate the whole thing. I had to wrestle it back from her to get the pit out of it, before she ate that too.

Baby Visit - 23 week apt.

Everything looked/sounded great. Baby's heart rate was 140-ish which is good. I have gained 16lbs, which is right on track. So we have one more monthly appointment and then we go to every other week appointment. YIKES.... I guess we are really having a baby!!

Messy Eater & 15 month check up

Just cute pictures...

Addison had her 15 month well visit last week. She weighted 24lbs and was 301/2 inches tall. Dr. Martin said everything looked great. Out next check up is at 18 months.

More water pics

Underwater Baby

Here is Addie going underwater between her instructor, Miss Morgan and Dadddy. Addie loves to do this and never looks worried when you pull her out. It's kind of amazing that she know to close her mouth.

Daddy comes to Swimming Class

Daddy came to swimming class today. He and Addie did great. They blew bubbles, kicked and went under water. She loves swimming class, too bad its almost over for the summer :(

A molar has been spotted

After Alex's molar was spotted this week, I thought I might want to risk being bit to see if Addie's had come thru. Sure enough, part of the bottom right, was poking thru. but no other ones, as of yet. The bite mark I received was worth it, as at least now I know what is going on in there.
