My new hot rod!
10 months today!
Standing up with no hands!!!! Such a big girl!
I love mommy's sunglasses!
Napping with daddy...my favorite naps!
It's so much fun to unload the video cabinet.
We are just back from a morning play date....so I am taking advantage of Addie's exhaustion
and updating the blog! It has been a very busy start to July! Lots of bbqs, dinners with friends, happy hours, outside time......true summer fun! We are also enjoying getting to spend more time with daddy, as he is now on research! :-)
Our new nanny, Molly, came for a visit on July 1. Annie showed her around the place and taught her about Addie's schedule. Things went well, and we are looking forward to Molly spending more time with Addison very soon! Seems like this will be a seamless transition! Annie's last day with Addison as her nanny will be this Thursday........so sad.......but we wish her the best in PT school, and plan to see her for some babysitting in the future! :-)
We had a nice 4th of July weekend. Mommy worked each day, so Addison had Daddy time! At night we ventured downtown for happy hour and apps one night, had drinks with the neighbors one night, and spent the actual holiday at our friend's place grilling steaks and looking out at the fireworks on the river from his balcony. Lots of fun! Addison decided she didn't want to be put down before the fireworks ended....so she was up watching them at 10pm.....our little party girl! :-) It was nice that she slept in until 9am the next day!!
We started going to the Corner Coffee kids playgroup on the 5th of July......such a cute play space! It is a neighborhood coffee shop that remodeled their basement in to a kid's playroom. There are tons of toys and baby equipment, and the space is baby proof! It can be rented for free for play dates, birthday parties, etc. They have started play dates for the neighborhood kids every other Tuesday. We had a great time, and plan to attend regularly! It's so exciting to live in such a kid-friendly part of town!
Addison turned 10 months old on July 6.......can't believe it!! We celebrated by buying a new pink car! Addison can ride on it and push with her feet, or stand and push from behind! She hasn't yet figured it all out yet, but still seems to have fun climbing on it and sitting on it for now. It will be fun to watch her grow in to in the months ahead!
Developmentally, Addison continues to change almost daily! Her latest skill is standing with no hands! She gets up from a squat position and stands for ~30-45 seconds without holding on. She can clap and eat in this position, but has yet to try to take steps....thank goodness! She is so proud! Addison has also totally transitioned in to a belly sleeper! She now immediately flips to her belly when placed in her crib....taking after mommy and daddy. Also, Addison now has her two upper teeth....one fully in, and the other breaking through! Such a big girl! Addie continues to be quite the talker.....and definitely without any volume control! :-) Just yesterday we had breakfast outside at Wilde Roast cafe. She does great, but loves to chat and tell the world all about it! Luckily, people generally find her pretty cute! :-)
We are looking forward to the week(s) ahead....a friend's birthday party, a weekend at home with both of us off work, and our parent's visits just around the corner!
