Last monthly post until the big One...


I figured I should get the 11 month post on here before Big Girl's big day in 2 weeks. Wow, that seems unreal. Only 2 more weeks until my baby turns one. While I'm happy we are reaching this milestone, it kind of makes me sad too. My last baby is growing up too fast! But it is amazing to watch Addison grow and learn new things daily. The biggest of these things is walking! Yes, baby girl is on the move. She doesn't walk all the time, but she takes 4-5 steps at a time several times a day. She also loves to dance. She has awesome dance moves!

According to the bathroom scale, Addison weighs about 19 lbs. She still only has 6 teeth. Her favorite things right now are her baby doll, blueberries and her Mommy (but she also thinks Daddy and "bubby" are pretty special too). She is a chatterbox, mostly speaking a foreign jibber jabber language. She continues to be a great baby, napping twice a day and sleeping about 11 hours at night. We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful daughter.
Stay tuned for birthday pics!

Trying out the Flip



Joey got a Flip camcorder through work. We have been having fun taking cute videos of the kiddos.

The best we could get
Baby girl wasn't too sure about the waves and sand.
This was the best family picture we could get.
We happened upon an outdoor concert in Seaside. The kids had a great time dancing.

We spent a week at the beach with Joey's family. The weather was wonderful, and we had a great time. As always, Gavin loved the beach. Addison didn't really like walking or sitting in the sand, but she was quite content sitting on the blanket playing with the beach toys. Both kiddos had a great time playing with their cousins. Thank you Mimi and PopPop for such a wonderful vacation!

The following videos are of Gavin playing in waves and Addison dancing to the band music. Enjoy!
