Very Merry Christmas

Christmas was full of holiday cheer this year since we had Addison to celebrate with! We enjoyed being in Vero and spending our Christmas morning with the 4 of us (don't forget Tootsie!) opening gifts. Addison was a sleepy head Christmas morning which made for fabulous pictures. There is nothing more adorable than a little sleepy head-puffy eyed baby girl in her sweet pajamas. Addison is quite the princess when sitting on her new chair Santa brought her. She did get pretty excited about the bows and tissue paper! :)

After we opened gifts at home we went to Mimi and Grandaddy's house and opened gifts there with Auntie Clare, Dan and great Aunt Cheryl. We spent the whole day there and had a very lovely day...could have been about 15 degrees cooler but we can't have everything! My Aunt Denise, Uncle Steven and cousin Victoria came down from Melbourne for dinner. Dad made a delicious meal....beef tenderloin and duck...yum yum! The Sammons gave Addison a baby carriage that she loves...she did not want to stop pushing her babydoll around Mimi's house.

We left Saturday morning for Jacksonville. It was great seeing the family and spending Charlotte's 30th birthday with her! Poor Caleb has had a rough time battling different sicknesses so we were slightly paranoid about trying to avoid the transfer of germs from him to Addy. It was hard because Addison is finally at the age where she wants to interact with other kids and Caleb is just so darn cute he is hard to resist!!! We are looking forward to the next time they get to see each other because it should be really fun.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and have a Happy New Year!

On the Move

We have a crawler on our hands now! How exciting!!!! Addy had been rocking while on all fours for awhile and she had just started lunging this week. We honestly thought she might skip crawling all together since she likes to be flat on her feet and walk along the furniture but we were wrong! Children love making liars out of their parents. :) Yesterday she crawled for a second to get to my scissors while I was wrapping presents! We went down to Jupiter this morning to have breakfast with my sister and while we were at her house Addison decided to crawl across the rug to get Auntie Clare's laptop. I try to entice her to crawl with HER toys but she wants grown-up toys! I guess I will have to re-arrange my ornaments on our Christmas tree now to guarantee no accidents with that since the tree is in Addison's playroom!
