New experiences

Addison has just started grabbing her toys and wanting to hold on to them. Ok, it's her toys, her clothes, her fingers- whatever she can fit into her hands. Of course as soon as she gets them in her hands, they go straight to her mouth. She has just started "talking," making lots of fun noises. I am really enjoying it- we can carry on full conversations now. :)


It is so much fun to watch Addison play with all her toys. I think I just snapped this picture at the right time, but it totally looks like she was sticking her tongue out.

Addison LOVES sitting at the computer with her daddy. She will sit with dad for a good amount of time before she has had enough.

So, thanks to my aunt, we got a exersaucer. Addison loves it, although she is way to small for it. She thought it was very interesting.

The other afternoon I went in to get Addison from her nap. She had been fussing for a few minutes, and being the hopeful mom I am- I was hoping she would fall back asleep. As her fussing got louder I went in to check on my little girl and this is what I found. She had managed to get her entire head and arms wedged under her cradle bumper. Needless to say, we upgraded to our crib that night. Funny little girl.

We go in for Addy's 4 month check up on Tuesday. I can hardly wait to see how much she has grown.

Mind of her own

Addison really liked her Bumbo chair at first, and now it seems like she is getting bored with it. She totally has a mind of her own. She has decided that she does not like sitting correctly in her chair, so she somehow manages to readjust herself to her liking. I'm not sure if she is trying to get closer to her toy...or jump out of the chair. Needless to say...it is always interesting to see what she is going to do next. I have a feeling this child is going to be a handful:)

BOO!!!!!

Addison had a GREAT Halloween. She really liked watching all the other kids running around in their costumes. She was not too excited about being dressed up herself...but she's just the cutest little butterfly. We celebrated Halloween by going to our church trunk-or treat on Friday, and went to my sisters house on Saturday. It was so much fun, and we all had a great weekend.

Addy had to wear two outfits on Halloween. This was her "Baby's 1st Halloween" outfit. (Thanks to Jami for the shirt and pants:))

My sweet niece Audrey trick-or-treating.

Justin just looks THRILLED to be out in the cold.

Addison trick-or-treating. She was really just along for the ride.

At the end of two long nights, our little butterfly just could not take any more excitement. She was exhausted. It is a hard life being a butterfly.
