Growing up

She's quick... she pulls up to any and everything... she's eating cheese, puffs, and other baby appropriate finger foods... and I'm afraid she needs her bangs cut. My baby isn't a baby anymore. But she's still the most adorable little person I"ve ever seen! You can just barely see her first two teeth (bottom) in one of these pictures!

In other news... Matt has been feverishly working on building a deck in our backyard. He's well over half way there, and it looks awesome! As his father put it, "You're definately not afraid of some hard work, are you?" I know he's ready for it to be done, but we're going to love it when it's all finished!

One day at a time

I really do feel bad about not updating this in such a long time. I know some of you check it every day... I'm sorry. I've just turned my computer on for the first time in at least 3 weeks... most of the 195 unread messages are just getting deleted.

For those of you who don't know, my negligence here is due to my recent state of shock/panic/acceptance of some surprising news we discovered several weeks ago. Matt and I are expecting a baby in January! Yes, we really are... and yes, it was a surprise. Addy will be about 16 months old then... what fun we will have! We're slowly trying to think through the logistics of another child in our home and keeping a watchful eye out for double strollers and things like that.

All that said, I haven't taken many pictures lately. I have a couple of Addison standing, cruising along our couch. But that's it. I'll take some today. And, I'll add a couple more vacation pictures to appease those of you in withdrawl.

I almost forgot... we had pictures taken about a month ago by a professional (also a good friend). She did a great job on a windy day with a tired baby girl! You can look at all of them on her website: rachelblackwellphotography.com/dalmut

Thanks for being patient with me. Love you!
