Getting into everything!

Here are some new pictures of Addison. She is pulling up on everything now. She is also climbing on everything including Pappy. I love the picture with the phone in her back pocket. She has the cutest hiney.

Santa Baby...

Today Santa visited Addison's Daycare, so we thought it would be perfect for her to show off her Christmas dress. She looked absolutely gorgeous...while sleeping the entire time during Santa's visit.

Walking???

Addison loves playing with anything that is not officially a toy. The past couple of days it has been her pink toy basket. She loves to empty it out and turn it into a drum and she even loves sitting inside of it! Last night she turned the basket upside down and stood up and began to slide it, while walking, across the living room floor. I was so amazed I just sat there and watched her. So...I don't have any pictures of her walking, but I will post them the next time.

Standing, Crawling, Eating!!!

With Addison's 9 month birthday around the corner she is changing super fast. Today we went into her room and she was standing in her crib, practically hanging over looking at her toys. We had to move her crib down today.


She is crawling so good now. Yesterday she gave up the army crawl and began to move around quickly by crawling like a "big-girl".


Today when we were feeding her she was chewing her food. First of all she doesn't have any teeth. Secondly, her food doesn't require any chewing. She has been watching us so closely and we think she is now ready for 3 foods.



Even with help from other family members, we are still having trouble down-loading videos. When I figure it out I will share with you!

Bath Time

Well...I think it's ok to say Addison is ready for the "real" bathtub. Today Addison not only turned completely around in her bathtub, but tried to stand up. We have been bathing her in this tub because it was so easy for us to get to her and spray her. Things will be different from here on out.

Christmas Tree

I am so happy with the way our tree turned out this year. I added the color teal and it looks so good! It is worth all the time and patience in the end!

Happy Thanksgiving

Our family has so many things to be thankful for this year. I am thankful for my husband and daughter each and every day.

This year we originally didn't have any plans for Thanksgiving so we decided to suprise a few people. We packed the car and drove to Virginia to first suprise my mom. We pulled up into her driveway and realized she wasn't there. I called her and began by having a normal conversation. I asked her what they were doing and she mentioned she was out getting some last minute things for decorating. I told her that the house looked fine. She didn't say anything so I mentioned how I really liked her tree this year. Suprised, she asked "How do you know what my tree looks like?" I told her that I was standing in her living room. She did not believe me and kept repeating that "it wasn't funny, and was not something to joke about". I began walking through the house describing things I would only know if I was there. She finally said, "Oh my gosh, you really are here. I will be there in a minute!"

We also had the chance to suprise the Harris Family by showing up just in time for Thanksgiving lunch. It was so nice seeing everyone.

We didn't get many pictures. Here are a couple of pictures that my mom took.
