Sleepover!

Mimi, Pappy, and Nat Nat took Addison Friday night for a sleepover.  We were able to have a date night that consisted of finishing our Christmas shopping, wrapping all the gifts, and putting the lights up outside.  Thank you Mimi, Pappy, and Nat Nat I can tell from the pictures that ya'll had a GREAT time!

Addison...Addison...oh Addison!

I have always thought Addison to be halarious!  She does the funniest things...and she does them on purpose.  I can't imagine how she is going to be when she gets older...I think I might be in trouble.

Here are a few of the latest things she has done that kept us laughing for a long time.

* On the way home from VA we stopped by McDonalds and got her some pancakes.  As we were driving down the road she kept saying "Mama, Hat!", "Daddy, Hat?"...finally I looked back at her and she had her pancake on her head. 

*  The other day on the way home she kept saying "Mama, hahaha".  When I looked back at her she had taken off her shoes and socks and had placed her Cherrios in between her toes (thanks pappy for teaching her this nice trick)

* Yesterday it was raining and for some reason she had taken off her shoes and socks.  The door was wet from when I was loading her in the car.  She was rubbing her feet on the door then calling me to watch her as she licked the water off her toes...gross but funny!

* Today as we were on our way to school she called me saying, "look mamma ewww"  I looked back and something was on her finger.  I said, "Gross Addison, what is it?".   She laughed as she put it in her mouth.  I still don't know what it was.

It's A Boy!!!

We were very suprised today to find out that we had a little boy making his way into the world.  It still feels so weird to say "he" or "son"...there are really no words to express how excited we are.  I also found out today that the baby is measuring at 22 weeks and 4 days.  Since this was not a planned pregnancy it was a guessing game to get our originally due date of April 13th.  Our new due date is April 2nd.  We will keep you updated on our little boy as his arrival time gets closer. 

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving we spent time in Virginia with my mom.  We had a great time!  We hosted Thanksgiving this year at my mom's house, so Thanksgiving day was very busy.  Addison enjoyed playing with her cousins and meeting some family she hadn't seen in awhile. 

Black Friday, we decided to tackle the crowds.  There were a couple of items we were on the hunt for and we got really lucky and found them. 

Saturday, we did some more shopping, but we stayed local.  Grandma bought a Gingerbread House kit that we all enjoyed making.  Addison would eat a piece of candy and then decorate, eat a piece of candy and then decorate...it was so cute. 

Here are some pictures from our Thanksgiving break.  We have so many things to be Thankful for and we are most Thankful for our family and friends.

Here is Addison playing with Uncle Matthew's drum sticks early on Thursday morning with Grandma

Addison helped Grandma in the kitchen.

Paul made the BEST fudge EVER...and a little mess to go with it.

Grandpa and Addison listening to music.

Addison could not get enough of Uncle Matthew this week.

Addison with her cousins.  Addison showed off the entire night...she was the life of the party.

Addison even performed her favorite Christmas songs for everyone.  In this picture she is singing Jingle Bells.

Here we are making our Yummy Gingerbread House

Icing?  I don't know what you are talking about.

Belly Pictures

With Addison I showed off my belly each month...sorry I haven't been so "on top of it" this time around.  So how has the pregnancy been...
1. I was sick the first 4 months...not so much fun.
2. I started feeling a lot more movement within the last 2 weeks.
3. I feel like I am carrying this baby lower.
4. We find out what we are having on December 1st...I will be 5 months then.
5. Addison talks to the baby through my belly button and will kiss it when she's done playing.
* The other day Addison was talking to the baby and then she quickly said "Ok, bye-bye", and then put my shirt down.  It was so cute.
6. When we are out, Addison always wants me to carry her, this is somewhat challenging with my belly, but I'm figuring it out.
7.  We always wanted a little girl and since we have Addison we cannot wait to see what this little one is.
8.  I was scared about having 2 for the first 4 months, but ever since I have been feeling better, I am completly tickled by the idea.  We are so excited!
9.  I will be having a C-section again with this one because of the danger of me rupturing my last incision.  We will be scheduling the C-section the first week in April.
10.  We are so excited and cannot wait to welcome this little one into the world.

This is SO Funny!

A Fun Weekend

Happy Birthday Mimi.

This past weekend was Mimi's birthday and we celebrated it by watching the USC football game and then dinner at O'Charley's. 

Addison loved seeing her aunt Nat Nat.

She also loved playing with her Uncle Adam

Here is Pappy in his snuggie (a vision from Adam's Flash Forward...haha)

Addison cooked some yummy Cheeze-its in her kitchen set at MiMi's

She was very serious

Addison always follows me to the bathroom.  While at MiMi's house she said, "Mama PaPa".  I said, "You want to go to the potty?"  She said "yeah".  I put her on the potty and she went!  I thought I was going crazy, but she did it again a couple hours later.  It was only that day so we will continue with our plan to start over Christmas break.

Paul really wanted to put up all the Christmas decorations, but I talked him into just doing Addison's Tree.  Addison put every decoration on herself.  She loves sitting at looking at her tree.  She also likes moving her ornaments around.
