"Look where I ended up mommy!" A perfect hiding spot!
I spoon feed myself!!!
Thank you Emily for the adorable summer skirt!
No shirt and jeans....just like my daddy!It is definitely time to update the blog.......as the last week and a half have been full of new "firsts" for Addison!
Addison started crawling in the evening on May 25th. I had just met a friend for a play date, and was telling her how Addie was "so close" to crawling....when she suddenly transitioned to four point, and the next thing I knew she was slowly moving across the floor towards her cell phone! We couldn't believe it! The next two days she would very slowly crawl for short distances to retrieve toys that were nearby..... Now, just a few days later, she is moving much more quickly and really getting the hang of it! She is so proud!!! (and of course we are too!)
Addison pulled to stand for the first time on May 28th! She crawled across the floor, as daddy and I cheered for her.......she reached her music table, pulled up on to her knees, and the next thing we knew she was standing on her own playing! So cute and so exciting! The problem was she had no idea how to get down....so "plop"....she landed on her bottom! Oops! I guess she'll eventually figure out this part too!
We took Addison to her first baseball game on May 28th. Daddy and I decided to walk down and scalp tickets about ten minutes before the game started. Addie was the good luck charm and cheered the Twins on to a 1-0 win over the Los Angeles Angels! She was a popular fan in her "May hat." (see picture!)
Other highlights of the last week and a half were a bbq at our place with our friends, Jessie/Brett, Jesse/Kristin and Riloh; several playdates with Stacy/William, Ali/Levi, Kristin/Riloh; a couple runs with mommy and a couple of her friends; a trip with Annie to her preschool for a graduation and story time; Addison "feeding herself" yogurt with a spoon for dinner one night (she has started to protest being spoon fed-and wants to use her hands for everything!); and lots of time playing outside!
Unfortunately, we lost a very close family friend, Lucille, over the last couple weeks. We will be traveling home to Indy for the funeral in mid-June. Luckily Addie was able to meet her over Christmas when were home, and we took some beautiful photos of the two of them. Although Addie will not have the memories of her that we will cherish forever, Addison will learn to love her and "remember" her through all of the stories we share with her throughout the years ahead.
This week Addison and mommy are traveling to NC for a few days to hang out at the beach with mommy's best friends from college and their little ones! We will also get to visit with Nana and Papa at the end of the trip. Looking forward to it! Mommy got a new cell phone...so daddy will get to see lots of fun clips and pics from the beach! :-)
