Happy Turkey Day!

We enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner at Nana and Paw-Paw's house. We had quite the feast and it was all delicious! Personally, I could eat like that everyday! It was a full house too - Mark, Addison, Jason, Amanda, Nana, Paw-Paw, Grandpa, Uncle Bradley, Aunt Jennifer, Aunt Marsha, Uncle Kirk, Laura, Maw-Maw, Seaborn, Jen and Pete! And of course, Mark was the star of the night!

Mark and Aunt Marsha

Grandpa, Seaborn, Paw-Paw, Uncle Kirk and Jason

Uncle Kirk serving the sweet tea. Nice job!

Addison was much more interested in eating my Thanksgiving dinner than her baby food sweet potatoes.

Pete is a police officer for Atlanta. He brought some of his police things to show Mark. Here is Mark wearing Pete's hat, badge and holding his radio. He really liked the radio. I don't think Mark wanted to give everything back when it was time for us to leave.

Trick or Treat!

Trick or Treat! Here's our Mater and flower. Aren't they just the cutest? Mark had a good time trick or treating and Addison did good in her costume. She only went to Aunt Jennifer's and Uncle Bradley's house though. Then she and I went home to hand out candy. Unfortunately we weren't able to get a good picture of both of them together. Maybe next year!

Mark's Halloween Party

On Halloween, Mark's class had a party and I got to go too! Nothing like a classroom full of 14 three year olds to make me miss teaching! Just kidding! The children had lunch and yummy spider cupcakes. Notice what the black icing did to his teeth! They ran around in their costumes and his Mater costume was quite the hit! Then we went outside to the "magic pumpkin patch". Earlier in the day the children had sprinkled "magic dust" on the ground in hopes of growing pumpkins. Well - it worked! When we went out there were pumpkins everywhere!

Pumpkin Patch!

We went to the Pumpkin Patch to pick out our pumpkins. There were lots of pumpkins to choose from, so Mark had a hard time finding the right one. He was happy to pose for pictures though!

This is Mark with Flopsy. Flopsy is his class pet. Every week-end a child is chosen to take home Flopsy. Mark's teacher said he was the best listener so that is why he got to bring home Flopsy. Flopsy went everywhere with us that week-end!

Hello Everyone!

Hello Everyone! I am a big girl! I can roll over both ways and sit up on my elbows and look around! I especially love to watch my big brother!

I Got a Bumbo!

A Bumbo is the pink seat you see. It is the "latest" baby thing and is supposed to help babies learn to sit up. Addison thinks it is okay, but she would rather be on her back on the floor.

Just Some Snapshots!

Yummy! My hands! She loves to eat her hands! At Addison's 4 month check-up she weighed in at 11lbs 7.5 ozs and measured 24 1/2 in. long! She's growing!

Trying Some Cereal

Addison's first encounter with cereal and a spoon! She wasn't so sure about either one and still isn't so sure about them! We keep trying though!

Mark's 1st Day of School!

Look at our little man! His first day of Preschool! His very first day was a little rough, but ever since he really enjoys school. He has a lot of fun and has made lots of friends. He always brings home lots of artwork that he proudly displays on the refrigerator. He is learning lots too! I thinks he knows a lot more than we realize. His teachers, Ms. Shannon and Ms. Susan, say he is a very good listener and a very sweet boy!

My 2 Month Check-Up

Poor Addison - had to get 4 shots at her check-up! She now weighs a big 9lbs 7ozs and is 22 1/4 in. long! Watch me grow!

Look at Me!

Some snapshots of Addison. Of course, a snapshot of Mark too!

Big Brother Mark!

Mark is the BEST big brother! He LOVES Addison! The only time he complains about her is when she is crying and he is trying to watch "one of his shows". He'll tell me - "mommy, why don't you feed her some more".

Addison's Arrival

So I wanted our website to begin with the birth of Addison. Here she is! Arriving June 17, 2007 at 3:19 a.m. Did I mention I had a c-section?
