Like A Bean Stalk

We just had Addie's doctor's appointment today... to receive her second round of shots (never a pleasant experience). We learned that she is now 13 lbs 15 oz and is in the 90th percentile!

Busy Bees

We've been super busy the last few days! We just returned from Virginia Beach and the count down is really on! With few enough days left in the states to count on one hand, we have a lot to do!

I will see about posting a few pictures in the next days, but thought you might enjoy seeing some pictures of Addie now. Follow this link to our favorite photographer's website and click on the "here". At the bottom of the next page is an album of 22 pictures. We were able to arrange Addie's first photo shoot while we were in VB and although there are a ton more pictures than those in the album, but we liked those you'll see the best.

Addie's Announcement

This is the announcement I put together... a friend sent out one similar to the one I initially designed, but I think this attempt (albeit imperfect) turned out better than my first. If I can get some more designs maybe I'll make a little website/business.... =D

(Almost) Naked Baby

Hanging Out in the Hammock

Because yesterday was Labor Day (and more like a Saturday than a weekday), Chris worked during the day... and came home to a fun bbq. He had some quality time with Addie and was able to introduce her to the hammock in the backyard.



She really liked this position...


This is our friend Seth with his son Joseph. I met his wife, Amy, in the mother's lounge our first Sunday here and we've become fast friends.

Mirror Mirror On The Wall...

If this mirror could talk, I'm pretty sure it would be all ga-ga and googly like me and Chris...

Did you notice those michelin-tire-man arms in the mirror??

Here's that cute baby in the mirror....

Bonney-Girl

On Sunday we dressed Addie in another dress that I wore as a baby... gotta love that bonnet!
