7 Months Old!

Take a walk down memory lane with me...

1 month old...



2 months old...



3 months old...



4 months old...

They are still RAW files...I need to edit!!!

5 months old...



6 months old...
no picture...I forgot!

7 months old...




This is the ONLY picture I have with Addy and the paper!

This is Addy's new version of the monthly pictures...






She makes up for it with her cuteness!!!!






I don't know what it is about this picture but it's Addy.

My sunshine.
My mooshie tooshie.
My stinker butt.
The love of my love.
My best friend.
My baby.
My everything.

I don't know what it is but this is MY ADDY...



If it was a better picture I would have it blown up REALLY big and made into a gallery wrap.

We have a crawler!!!!!

There are no words needed...the pictures say it all...

















Okay...5 words are needed...WE NEED TO BABY PROOF!

Addy started to pull (yes, pull..as in dig her hands into the carpet and pull)herself around the room earlier in the week. On Tuesday afternoon she pulled her legs up under her and tried to take a crawl...she didn't really go anywhere. Yesterday, Addy pulled her legs under her and crawled! It's a s l o w crawl and half way to where she wants to go she flops on her belly and pulls herself...pulling is much faster!!!

She is growing up so fast!

6 Months Old!

Addy had her 6 month old check up today and her stats are...
15 pounds 9 ounces (30%)
27 inches long (75%-90%)

"long and lean!" is what the nurse said.

She is getting so big...she was 7 pounds 10 ounces and 21 and 1/4 inches long at birth.

She had gained almost 8 pounds and has grown almost 7 inches...WOW!

Her she is when she was born...






She has changed so much....yet she still looks the same!! :)

First Day

Yesterday Garth worked from home. So today was my first day as a SAHM!

I'm not really a SAHM but I get to pretend to be one for a few weeks!

I got the dish washer unloaded and reloaded! (Addy was in her high chair) I got the washer loaded and started! (Addy was in her carrier thingy that attaches to my chest) and the wet towels are still sitting in the washer. Instead of moving it I am blogging...I know whats important! I actually have a good reason for blogging instead of moving laundry...I am sitting in the office watching Addy, on the new video monitor, roll around her co-sleeper trying to go to sleep. We really need to work on a schedule!

I have run out of things to look at on the Internet...Photo board {check} The Nest {check} E-mail {check} Blogs {check} Can you tell where I have been sitting while Addy tries to take a nap without me holding her?

I think by the time we figure out how this works it will be time for my stint as a SAHM to end :( I'll do the work....Mimi will get the glory!!!

Rice Cereal

Yummy! Proof that she does eat...

Happy Father's Day!

Today is Garth's very first Father's Day!

We had a great day! We went to the PGA Tour Grill...yummy! We went to Buy Buy Baby and Addy got lots of new toys. We went to Target and got a video monitor for Addy's room (we are no longer swaddled so the next step is into her room!) We watched "the tour" on T.V. (the whole tour...good thing it's Father's Day). Busy! Busy! Busy!

Garth didn't get any presents today but he did get a HUGE present on Monday...



Yep, a replacement for his car that "died a quick death on I-70"! A much nicer, prettier, air-conditoned replacement!!! He deserves it...since he is such a great husband and Daddy!

Hope everyone had a great day...we sure did!

Almost forgot...Addy is actually "eating" her cereal now! (pictures to come...they are too cute!)

"Checked out"

I am officially done with school...I have been "checked out"!

Addy and I left at 8:30 to go to school. We got to school around 9:20, walked in, showed Addy to a few people, met my principal in my room and 9:30, and I was "checked out" by 9:32.

Part of me wishes the whole process took longer...I packed Addy, her stuff and me in the car and drove an hour to school to only need to be there for 2 minutes!?!?

I asked if I could get "checked out" yesterday, you know I live an hour away and all, but I had to take leave to do that....8 hours of leave for a 2 minute process?

But I really don't care...it is over and I have many (not that many...but I am being optimistic) weeks at home with my baby.
