Happy Halloween!

3 Months Old Today

Addison is three months old today ... time is continuing to fly. We fall in love with her more and more every day. She is all smiles and is starting to laugh. She has become very vocal in the last two weeks - imagine that a girl that loves to talk. A couple of weeks ago we had a sip and see in Seguin for friends to meet little Addison Mae. We were showered with lots of Walmart gift cards ... can't have enough of those. Last weekend Addison attended the UMHB football game to see her Auntie Brookie cheer. Continuing to enjoy every moment....

Loving Life

Addison is loving life! She is such a happy little baby AND wonderful sleeper .... we are on the fifth week of all night sleeping .... YIPPEE! She has mastered her night schedule. She is warming up to the camera since I am constantly taking her picture - trying to capture a shot without her tongue hanging out is a challenge though. We are so in love with this little girl!

2 Months Old

Miss Addison was two months old Sunday Sept 12th. We are enjoying every minute with our little girl. She now weighs 12 lbs 1 oz and measures 22 2/3 inches. She has begun to coo and smile a lot. Her smile just makes our heart melt. She is full of personality.

BOWS BOWS BOWS - Who knew they could be that big?

Aunt Gege bought Addison the cutest bows for her 2 month b-day .... celebrating every moment!

Addison Meets Dylan

Our friends and neighbors Marci & Tig Day had a baby girl on Friday Sept 3rd. This is a picture of Addison and Dylan meeting for the first time. It was funny to try and get two newborns to sit up for a picture considering there is not much neck control .... LOL!

Day Trip to Dallas

We took a day trip to Dallas on Saturday to visit with family. Addison was held by her great great Aunt Mary who turns 99 years old this week while we caught up with Cousin Kent. We also visited Uncle Bill & Aunt Madelyn, Cousin Sally, and Cousin Danna. We enjoyed catching up with some of our extended family and introducing Miss Addison to them. Addison did great - it worked out well that every stop was a feeding time or diaper change so she was a happy camper.

Maternity Leave is Over :(

Six weeks has flown by and my maternity leave is officially over ....BOOO! I am back at the office trying to get up to speed on everything that has gone on the real (business) world over the last six weeks. My world since July 12th has involved nothing but feedings, diaper changes, and a precious little baby girl. Chris' mom is staying with us this week while we learn our new morning routine with a newborn. Next week she will be off to Aunt GeGe's daycare.

Slept ALL night

Addison is one month old today. She slept ALL night last night - what an awesome gift to give to her parents. Of course she got more sleep than we did because we kept waking up to check on her. Chris and I watched a dvd called "Happiest Baby on the Block" last night. We have begun to use the techniques (swaddling, side/stomach postion, sushing, swinging, and sucking) - so far so good. We are attempting to get Addison on a schedule so the transition when I go back to work is smooth. We shall see how that goes....

First Family Vacation - Galveston, TX

We took Addison on our first family vacation last week to Galveston, TX. We enjoyed time at the beach, Moody Gardens, and a few local tours BUT most of all we enjoyed LOTS of time at the condo. Addison was a trooper!
