What Color are my Eyes!?

We can't decide what color her eyes are going to be. Sometimes they are blue...sometimes green...sometimes hazel...and in this picture grey! Only time will tell. Either way they are beautiful!

Pumpkin Butt

We put these Halloween PJs on Addison and Charles and I just love them. Her feet are little jack-o-lanterns too! If it wasn't a hundred degrees down here we would keep her in them all day long! Did I mention Addison is rolling over every chance she gets! She is starting to become very mobile and very vocal! She is laughing more and more each day. We cannot believe she will be SIX months on Wednesday.

Beach Day

We took Addison to the beach this weekend and she loved splashing in the water and digging her hands and feet in the sand. She is just adorable in her little bathing suits if I may say so myself!!!

Go Gators!!!

Grandmommy and Pa gave Addison her first real Gator shirt! It was very cute on her. Even though it is visably pink people still thought she we a boy! Whatever!!!!

Did I get any in my mouth?

Yummy Carrots!

Slumber Party

Our friend Kristina Powell and her 15 month old, Marin, came to visit us for a night. We had so much fun and Addison and Marin were very interested in each other.

Rolling on over

FINALLY! Addison rolled over from her stomach to her back yesterday. Charles and I were so excited when she did it we started clapping and praising her so much she kind of freaked out so who knows if she will ever do it again! We figured she would skip the rolling over stage since she has been sitting up for weeks and gets down into the crawling position all by herself. It was very exciting to see her do it! We are so proud of our little darling. :)

Go Gators!!!!

We went over to our friends house and watched football. They have a 6 month old Katie and their friends brought over Libby who is also 6 months old! The girls had so much fun playing together. Addison is definitely becoming more social and we love watching her interact with other babies. Addison wore the onsie Aunt Merc made her with the orange and blue A on it. SO SUPER CUTE!

Addison's first huntin' buggy ride!!!

Besides it being hot and buggy Addison loved the buggy ride!

Yummy Yums

I have enjoyed my baby food maker more than I could ever have imagined!!! I have made squash (that was not pretty coming back out!), carrots, peas, peaches and sweet potatoes and much more still to come. Peaches seem to be Addison's favorite so far but this is a picture of her eatting her applesauce! Too cute! She is so funny, she refuses all food at first so I have to put a little on her bottom lip for her to sample. Once she tastes it she does what we call the baracuda move where she attacks the spoon and I can't get it in her mouth fast enough!!!!

For the Love of Corks

While at Aunt Charlotte's house Addison discovered a new toy....wine Corks!!! I think I have a mini wino on my hands!

Its been awhile

Cousinly LOVE

Danielle & Addison

Aunt Charlotte in heaven with her niece & nephew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I did try to update the blog after Addison's and my weekend in Jacksonville but right when I was finished with my heartfelt post the computer froze so I gave up! Here is a short and sweet version. It was a weekend of firsts.

Addison and I took our first road trip to visit Aunt Charlotte and see my girlfriend Danielle from college. Danielle came down from Charlotte, NC to meet Addy for the first time. We had a great weekend and it was nice to spend time with an old friend and get some relaxing girl time. I know Addison enjoyed her one on one time with Aunt Charlotte too. We also saw cousin Caleb, Grandmommy, Pa, Aunt Jessica and Uncle Adam.

Addison seems to have flipped her switch as far as letting people hold her and play with her. Sat when in Jax she was letting Charlotte and Danielle play with her and she wasn't crying for me to hold her. Ever since that day she has been great with everyone which is a huge relief to me because I now I get a break..still no bottle though! But at least the separation anxiety has seemed to dissapear for the most part or at least minimize greatly! She also started sitting up at Charlotte's! She can now sit up unassisted for about three minutes before she topples over. It is really funny because she thinks she is mobile so she gets ready to crawl and then she realizes once she falls over that she is stuck! So cute!

So don't judge but I have been without sleep for 5 months now and since I was at Charlotte's house and had this big bed to myself I let Addison sleep with me and of course she slept the whole night! I will admit I loved every minute of it and her face was so precious snuggled up next to mine but that was a one time thing and now that I got a night of sleep it is back in her crib for good! What a mean 'ol mommy I am!!!
