Aunt Krista's here!!

I don't know who gets more excited when Aunt Krista comes to town... me, Addison, or Darby. And that's not to say Matt doesn't love having her here, it's just that the rest of us really really miss her when she's not here. So we celebrate her visits!! Addison's been learning the basics of Fisher Price basketball... her hands still have a little growing to do before she can really dunk.

And Addy and I enjoyed some playtime on the big red bed in Aunt Krista's room while everyone else was at work. Then she got to have some dance lessons when Krista got home!

At the moment, both of my girls (Darby and Addy) are napping, so I should probably do something productive! I hope my happy baby brightens your day and whole weekend!

Changes...

I know I was told this... but apparently I learn best from experience. I've realized the only constant in Addison's life and behavior right now is that everything will soon change - weather it's her nap schedule, her eating schedule, the absence or presence of a cough or cold, even what she looks like. Things change so fast. She still hasn't popped any teeth through, but I'm certain one is not far away. She's not yet crawling, but she is rocking back and forth on all fours (the tell-tale precursor). She hasn't officially said "da da" yet, but her unofficial first words sound like "gooey gooey" and "ya-da-da-da". Not sure what I'll put in the baby book.

We're looking forward to a visit from Aunt Krista next week, then a trip to Gulf Shores the following weekend to spend a week with my family! Addison's first beach and pool experiences! Guess we'll need a working camera by then... These pics are from Aunt Dena's camera - Thanks Dena!! And, lest you think she never cries, I did post one pic showing "the perfect child" at the end of her rope. Poor thing. Her cousins are so cute!

Easter

We had a wonderful, yet very busy Easter weekend. It started with a fun tailgating event we had with our Sunday School class on friday (when the weather was frigid and wet). Then, Addison joined Matt at her first Razorback baseball game on Saturday. They both had a great time I think. Then came my favorite holiday to celebrate. It continues to amaze me, every time I think about what Jesus did for us.

Sometime this last week, however, our camera decided to die. Not completely dead, just close enough to be very aggravating. You'll see why in a second. All the pictures we tried to take on Sunday came out fuzzy. And it's not user error. Matt and I both confirmed this. So I'm awaiting pictures from Dena's camera from Sunday. And don't worry, we'll get some more in her Easter outfit. But here's a taste of what we got.

Just imagine how cute she would be if she weren't all blurry!!!! If weather cooperates, we'll have some professional pictures taken this weekend. So, as always... please be patient!

This Little Piggy

One of my mom's friends has a pig farm and likes to give gifts with pigs on them. This is such a cute outfit, with or without the hat. Addison is sitting on the couch laughing at Darby in a few of them. She loves to watch that crazy dog run around and play with us.
