Addie at the Pool!

Addison enjoyed an afternoon at the pool today! She has a great time in the water and loves to test the deep water by trying to see how far she can walk in it before her mouth is covered. A little scary, so I couldn't get that part on video. I did get her exploring the shallow end of the pool though. It is late, so I am not writing much. Enjoy the video!

1st Day of Gymnastics!

This is Addison getting ready for her 1st day of gymnastics. Before we left we took the tutu off. Gymnasts may scoff at a dance tutu! Anyhow, Addie seemed to love it. She was definately not timid and gave everything a try. She also learned a new word "Daaaa," her own form of "Ta-da" with both hands held up in the air. Maybe I can get a video sometime.

Cell Phone Back On!!!!

Hi Everyone! I am so happy to announce that my cell phone has been found and is now working again after disappearing for 3 weeks. I have missed you all. I cannot wait to catch up!!!

We are having a baby ........ ?

I had an ultrasound on Monday and we were able to find out if our Lil'one is a baby boy or baby girl. We opted to not find out the sex once again. It will be a long wait, but it will be worth all of the excitement the day he or she arrives and we finally know. I can't wait to call and tell you all! My due date is November 28th, the day after Thanksgiving, so hopefully you will be hearing from me around that time. Until then, here is a picture to get you by.

This is Lil'one's profile. You can see that the hand is in front of the mouth. She or he could be sucking his or her thumb.



So, what is your guess? Will it be snails and puppy dog tails or sugar and spice and everything nice?

Sesame Street Live!

Addison was invited by her friend Sawyer to go to Sesame Street Live in May. She was a little weary of sitting on Ernie's lap during the Meet and Greet, but was able to manage for at least a picture. The two of them had a great time, but neither could make it through the whole show. There was just too much to see and explore.

Addie refused to try any cotton candy, and Sawyer was just as glad. He thought the sweet fluffy stuff rocked!!!

Time to Play Dress Up!

This video was taken May 11, 2008. Some of you may remember me trying to email it to you, but I couldn't because the file was too big.

Anyhow, I was getting Addison ready for her bath and all by herself she decided to put on my red shoes and shuffle around the bathroom. Usually it is in the mornings when I am getting ready that she has a fashion show in my closet, but today she gave me a pre-bath fashion show. I think she is ready for the catwalk!!!

This is what a usual morning looks like for us! Addie picks hot items from my closet and brings them to me to help her put on. First we started with her Ladybug rainboots, then the sequined belt, and too make the whole outfit pop; a turquoise tank top. Addison stood in front of the mirror for at least 2 minutes adoring her fashion sense.
