15 Months

Life is so fun with our little Addison!  She is getting so big these days!  She turned 15 months old on Oct 26!

She had her 15 month check-up this past Friday.  She was such a good girl...I just hated that she had to get shots :(   She weighed 23lbs 8.3 oz, which places her in the 59.77% for weight.  She was 31" long, 65% for height (I think her last measurement of 30" at 12 months was a bit off). 


She is suddenly a little girl.  She repeats (or at least attempts to repeat) just about everything you say.  It amazes me how she all of a sudden can talk!  And she seems to understand everything.  Here's a picture from today of her marching in the back yard, with her camo on...
She loves to eat, loves books, loves bath time, loves Griffon and Sadie, loves to be outside, and absolutely LOVES to dance!  She has been doing animal sounds a lot.  She says Meow, Woof, Moo, Gobble-gobble, Baaa, Quack, makes a fish face, a noise like a chicken that I'm not sure how to spell, Ha!, and I think that's about it. 
She has "outgrown" her highchair and either sits in a booster seat now or at her little tray on the floor.  A couple of nights ago, we took the front of her crib off.  She is so proud of her "big girl bed"!  So far, so good...although her usual one hour nap after church today lasted only about 15 minutes :( 
Our next goal (or at least Mommy and Daddy's next goal) is to start her on her little potty.  Wish us luck!


Here are a few pictures of her playing with her My Little Ponies in her doll house Aunt Shelly picked up at a yard sale!...
I love this first one...she is brushing the pony's hair :) ...

And yes, she is walking around without pants on.  If you say to her, "Lets put your pants on", she simply smiles and says, "No".  Gotta love  her!

And just because this picture is precious to me, I have to add it...

Thank-you, God, for my little family!!!

Addison's first babysitters

Image
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
