Catch-up

We have been so busy lately.  I thought I'd just do a quick catch-up blog to recap a few things.  A couple of weekends ago was my cousin, Zack's birthday.  The family got together at my aunt Kay's house to celebrate.  Addison and her buddy, "Gook" (Luke)...

After the party, we stopped by Gama and Goppy's house (Addison's new names for Jane and Gerald...not sure where she got these names, but it is too cute)...

Playtime with Luke...







And, Addison's "big girl" room...Last Sat night, Gama and Goppy kept Addison and Sue-Sue came over to help me move Addison's room.  We completely cleared her "old" room out and rearranged some things so that we could move her room to what used to be the "play room".   Here is a picture of her " baby room" right after we got it all finished for her, from June 2010...


Here is a picture after we got it all cleaned out...

Although it's exciting that we will soon be getting it all ready for baby brother, it's still a little sad that Addison no longer has a "baby room".  She is so proud of her big girl room, though...


We did keep her crib (with the front off).  We didn't want to change too much at one time.  We will eventually switch to a "real" bed instead of a toddler bed, but as for now, her room is just right :)  Thanks to the grandparents that made it possible for us to get everything moved.  Now for the next project...shopping for the new baby's room...wish me luck :)

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
