Addison's Birthday

We're making our way back to the land of the living! All 3 of us have been fighting a nasty stomach bug this week, which seems to have hit Matt the hardest. But none of us have enjoyed it at all! I've tried a couple of times to get some pictures up (honestly, I have!!) but "blogger" and my computer don't always play nicely together and then I get frustrated.

We loved seeing all of you that came for Addison's birthday party - can anyone believe she's already a year old!?! We're so grateful to have such wonderful family that will travel to see us so often. We even got to enjoy another quick visit from Krista this week. Hopefully she avoided the pestilence floating around our home! Thanks for braving it with us Aunt Krista!!

Here are some of the many cute pics from Addy's birthday party!

After presents, we got her all ready to dig into her cake, but she wanted nothing to do with it.

After Addy didn't eat her cake, we served our guests "Mystery Cupcakes," all filled with either pink or blue icing. Once you bite into it, you get to discover the gender of our next little Dalmut!

The icing was very blue, which means, yes, we are expecting a baby boy!!! We are so excited to get to have a son! Addison smiles when we tell her she's having a brother; we hope she's still happy about it in about 5 months!

The birthday girl was pretty worn out after all the festivities. She's such a sweet snuggler when she's tired. I'm going to miss that some day. Hopefully my growing belly won't prohibit snuggling too soon!
