It's Been A While! Here's the Latest....

This month has been a very busy one. We went to Oklahoma to see my family for Thanksgiving and had so much fun! Addy continues to grow more everyday and we continually enjoy her smiles and the little things she does to bring so much joy into our lives. Andy and I are the happiest we have ever been with our little bundle of joy! She is a light in our lives!

Addy's got Dad wrapped around her little finger and she keeps him on a tight leash!

Addy the Bubble Machine!!! She has become a little drooler! We think the bubbles are pretty cute!

Isn't Addy a doll! Andy and I could look at her all day!

This is Addy in her Univesity of Kansas outfit! This was the day that we brought Addy to Daddy's classes for show and tell. She was loved by all! We learned that she doesn't like Bach because a student did a presentation and played some of Bach's music and Addy started wailing. We had to step out in the hallway for a little bit!

We have been putting Addy in her bumbo seat. This was her first time and she didn't like it very much. She has grown more fond of it with time.

This is one of Addy's world famous BLOWOUTS! We've had some pretty funny blowout stories. I coulnd't believe it and had to take a picture to show Dad when he got home. It was everywhere! Enjoy!

This is Doug and Andy composing songs at Thanksgiving! They sure had a blast together!

Here's some pictures of Aunt Amy and Addy together! They both look great in stripes!

Here's Addy with her Great Grandpa George! She was all smiles with him!

Andy and Doug together rockin' out in the backyard with their rakes! It was fun to watch those two together!

These are some pictures from Thanksgiving when we went to Oklahoma to visit the family. We were lucky that Doug, Amber and Sarah could come too! It was lots of fun having everyone together!

Grandpa and Addy together! Addy sure loved cuddling with Grandpa and often feel asleep in his arms. We love you Grandpa!

Isn't Addy so adorable in her little outfit and hat! She looks like she's ready for a trip to France!

This picture was not staged. I found Addy exactly like this when she fell asleep. It was so cute to see her little hands folded together!

We love you all! We hope you have a Merry Christmas and we'll be posting more fun pictures soon!

Addy's First Photo Op

After church, Mom and Dad had some fun setting up a photo op for Addy. We are really enjoying our new camera and all the neat features it has, but most of all we are enjoying our little Addy with all her beautiful features.

Family Photos

These are some recent photos of the family. Addy is already wanting to be independent, so upon her request, we let her dress herself....

I am so lucky to be this little girl's mom!

Addy after a bath! For some reason we couldn't get the picture to rotate, so enjoy this artistic angle.

Addy's Baby Blessing

Addy was blessed in church this weekend and all the family came out for her special day! It was so fun to have everyone there. We really hated to see everyone go home and we still miss everyone! Thank you to everyone for making it such a special weekend for us!! We love you!

Happy Halloween Addy!

It's so funny how things always work out! I had seen a little bee costume a Wal-Mart and was going to buy it early in the season, but didn't. When I went back several weeks later, all of the infant costumes were gone and of course I couldn't let Addy go her first Halloween without a costume. Not to mention that she'll only be this tiny once and I needed to take advantage of this opportunity to dress her in something really cute! So, my mom heard through the grapevine that I had a small dilemma and, as always, she really came through for us. She called me up a day before Halloween and said that the costume was being overnighted to us....little did I know that she would drive up to Kansas and deliver it herself that very night. I heard a knock on the door and asked who was there. In my mother's voice I heard "Fed-Ex!" I was so excited when I opened the door to see my Mom and Dad and the bee costume. I love my parents--they are the best!

Addy's First Day At Church

These are pictures of Addy in her adorable yellow church dress. She was an absolute gem for Mom and Dad at church!! She was reverent and slept most of the time!

Funny Outake of Addy

Addy has some of the cutest and funniest facial expressions! This is Addy's "shocked and surprised" face!

Capturing a Smile!

I just love being a mom and being able to capture little Addy's smiles! We recently got a new camera that has fabulous shutter speed that makes capturing those precious moments a lot easier! Isn't she the cutest!

OU or KU Fan?

Player Down!

Blue 42!

Kiss Me!

Coach, Put me in, I'm ready!

Horsey!
(Notice her tongue sticking out)

I love you Todd Reesing!

Addy Goes Channel Surfing

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful little girl named Addy. She had parents who loved her so much! Addy had a little bit of free time on her hands, so she decided to do some channel surfing.

Suddenly, little Addy came across a questionable TV show! "Oh no!" said little Addy, "What should I do?"

Fortunately, little Addy had just learned in FHE to "Choose the Right!" So, this is what she did...

And little Addy lived Happily Ever After !
