Happy 1st Birthday Addie

Wow...you are one and it's awesome.  I think you think you are 4 like your sister, but sorry honey, you are only one.  You have been doing so many new things lately and talking like crazy.  Everyone swears that you are saying words.  You can say Dada, Mama, wan baba (want bottle), something that sounds really close to thank you, and several other things.  You can mimic the sounds of words very well.
Since you started walking a few weeks ago, you have really taken off.  You walk around the house and just talk to everyone and everything. I like when you ask a question. You look at us and wait for our reply. You are a smiley baby when you chose to be.  You have a big smile and your Aunt Angie always says your eyes smile too.
Mommy and Daddy love you very much.  You are our little angel and we love you precious!

Cherry Pickin'

 We got an insider tip on some awesome cherries, $1/lb!  There is a guy here in Farmington that opens up his orchard to the neighbors the Saturday before he opens to the public and allows them to come and get first pick.  The cherries looked like grapes because they were so dark and bunched together on the branches.  It was really fun and reminded me of when my family would go to the strawberry fields as a kid. We picked 45lbs of cherries which was about two branches worth.  
 Addie was mad that we didn't just let her eat the cherries whole.


 I love this big sister look Sophie is giving.

11 Months

Well I missed a 10 month post completely and 11 months seem to be slipping by as well, but at least I am doing one right?  Life has been a little crazy since we have been in yard mode.  Everyday for the past month we have spend every free moment working on sprinklers, prepping for concrete and raking for the sod installation. I will post pictures of that all after this.




Well Addie...Addie, Addie, Addie.  You are a different child then your sister and have been giving mommy, daddy and everyone else for that matter a run for their money.  You are on the go all the time.  Trying to walk and climb on everything.  You don't want to fall down and if you think you can't make it, you just sit and crawl instead. You took your first real steps on June 1st but then have not been very interested in walking again until two days ago. I was putting you to bed and you walked from the gate at the stairs into your room. Now you seem to try and walk more and more.  Knowing you, you will probably be running next week. 














Things about you:
You like to talk.  You jibber jabber all the time.

You don't want anything that is for babies.  You are a big girl.
You love to play with the big kids and wrestle.
You already know how to talk on the phone. You have a play cell phone you love to use.
I don't know that you really have any favorite foods, but you usually eat pears, peaches, cottage cheese and whole wheat bread.
You love your big sister and she makes you laugh so hard.
You like to stand on the couch whenever the opportunity allows.
You like to blow on anything that will make a sound and slobber too.
You are a little drama.  If you are put down and don't want to be, you bury your face into the floor and sob.
You love to play with blocks and have discovered that you can throw them down the stairs.
You try and crawl into the bathtub when ever the chance allows. We have to keep the bathroom doors closed at all times.

Sophie's Dance Recital

Addie's 9 Month Stats

At Addie's 9 month check up she was
99% in height at 28.75 inches
89% in weight at 19lbs 1oz
65% for head, not sure on the measurement

Sophie at 9 months (almost 10 months) was 18 lbs 3.5 oz and 28 inches tall.

Even though the girls started so far apart on their birth stats, they are really evening out.
