Open Door

Addison started a new daycare on Monday at Open Door Ministries.  We were on the waiting list for almost a year and finally got a call about 3 weeks ago that there was an opening in the nursery.  We were so excited!  And after one week there, we are even more excited....we LOVE it!!!  It isn't grandma daycare...hint hint.....but it is a blessing none the less.  Everyone there is soooo nice and really seems to love what they do.    There are 9 other babies in her nursery.  I haven't learned all their names yet, but I'm sure I will eventually.  All of the women who work in the nursery are very nurturing and loving and calm!  They are very attentive and that is something that I really appreciate!  The entire place is so clean and organized!  They are big on "learning"  and more important than anything...they teach the word of God!  We feel that Addison has adjusted well there and look forward to the days ahead at Open Door!  I'll have to get some pics soon of her at daycare.  In the meantime...here are a few random recent pics...

Addison's first babysitters

This past Saturday night, Adam and I headed out for the first time without our little "butter bean".  Everyone keeps asking me if I cried, but I knew she was safe with Grandma Jane-Jane and Grandpa Gerald, so there were no need for tears.  Plus, they were babysitting at our house and I knew I'd see her in just a few hours, so it wasn't so bad.  We went to Adam's 10 year class reunion and had so much fun!  There was a great crowd there, at the City Hotel and Bistro.  It was so good to see everyone!  I graduated just one year ahead of Adam, so I knew a lot of people at the reunion too, even though it was for the c/o 2000.  Here are a couple of snapshots...I am hoping to get more pictures from Lorie's camera to add to my blog, but this is all I have for now... Me & Adam: Me & Sarah: Me & Lorie: .....thanks to Lorie, I have a few more pics to share...

July 26, 2011...Addison's FIRST BIRTHDAY!!!  I don't even know what to say.  There are so many things I have thought about writing for this blog, but right now all I can think to say is THANK YOU JESUS for choosing Adam and myself to watch over your precious baby Addison Leigh!  And THANK YOU JESUS for the blessing that she continues to be each and every day to so many people! I just can't believe it has been a whole year since we were at the hospital welcoming our new baby to the world.  And now here she is standing all by herself... She's still not walking on her own, but has been doing the bear walk a lot lately... She wears 12-18 month clothes, size 3-4 diapers, and size 3 shoes.  She started drinking big girl milk (soy milk) a couple of days ago, so no more formula!  She is still a GREAT eater!  And she still will let the whole world know if her belly is hungry!  She still LOVES to dance more than anything in the world!  She added a new word to her "vocabu
