Christmas Eve

We celebrated at my parents' house on Christmas Eve

Addison wanted to take her baby, Carly, in her new carseat...


Caroline looked mighty cute!  She wore an outfit that Addison wore 2 years ago.  I couldhardly wait to put these pictures side by side.  So precious...

Little Buddies...

Luke and Addison, they love to play "up a da stairs" as Addison would say...

Male bonding :) ...

This time, we ate like normal people do at Christmas.  Ha!  Ham, and all the fixins.  It was yummy!  Finally, it was time to open presents.  This cutie-pie could hardly wait...

Fun, fun, fun!...






Addison got all kinds of things...a new red-headed baby doll, baby doll clothes, and baby doll bed, a make-up case, a camera, a new baby doll stroller, her first pair of Toms shoes, lots of clothes, movies, bath toys, a baby doll diaper bag, a remote control train, and I can't even remember what else.  Broughton got a really neat pirate ship ride-on toy, some clothes, lots of diapers, and lots of baby food!






How blessed we are to have each other to celebrate with!  More Christmas posts to come...

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
