Best buds

Polly and Addie have really become good buddies. Polly loves to give Addison kisses and sniff her, which tickles Addie's face. Addie just smiles & giggles and flails her arms to grab at Polly. Polly loves any attention she gets and is great at entertaining Addie.

Addie's nanny

Jen watches Addie while Brian & I are at work. She's great at juggling both Addie and her boy, Isaiah and putting up with Polly too!
They were just too cute having storytime...I had to snap a shot!

4 months old already!

As of last friday, Addison is now 4 months old...does time fly by or what?! She's up to almost 16lbs and is getting easier & easier. We are sooo blessed as she is a very happy & content little girl, and she recently started sleeping about 10 hours at night.
Here's a shot of her from the other day with her "milk face"

Morning Sunshine

Every morning Addie wakes up just a little earlier than I'd prefer. I keep my eyes closed and listen to her talk to herself, hoping that her babbles will get softer and then stop as she drifts off back to sleep. This does happen occasionally, but more often, they get stronger until she realizes that she is ready to get up and wants to let us know it too. I drag myself out of bed and go over to the pack-n-play (her temporary crib) and look down and it never fails...she looks up and grins. The best "good morning" grin ever. That's my morning sunshine. I tried to capture it today, but the real thing is always better :)

Happy Easter!

Time for a family picture!
(Addie's Easter dress was made by her great-grandma Silver)

Presenting the SWING!
We finally caved in and got one this weekend. Turns out Addison is a baby that loves to swing.


Step 1: Place baby in swing

Step 2: Watch baby sleep :)
