Addie is 5 Months!!!

Our Baby girl is 5 months old!!! Its still amazes me how fast time goes bye. We are all nice and settled up north and for once I can say that I love our place for the baseball season.

Little miss Addie has had a really big month; she now sits up on her own, rolls over from back to stomach (she sleeps that way) and she also eats rice cereal! I am so proud of my sweet baby girl. she makes her mama such a happy person.

She absolutely adores her sister, only has eyes for her and it melts my heart. I know she cant wait to walk or crawl so she can follow her everywhere. That is going to be interesting to see how Kenzie handles someone else playing with her toys :-)

She loves to sleep and HAS to have her naps, because you better watch out if she doesn't!!!!! She loves to laugh and be tickled and she also loves baseball games....so much entertainment!

Her hair is getting so much longer and its growing in blond and her little eyes are so blue....I know I'm her momma, but she really is so beautiful and she melts all of our hearts more and more each day :-)

Loves to be on her stomach

Silly girl

Eating cereal for the first time!!!!

Sitting up all on my own

What are you looking at?

Heading out for our daily walk :-)

Sweet potatoes!!!!!!

Our little 4 Month Old

Supporting her daddy :-)

Watching cartoons with her sister

trying to sit up on her own :-)

Little Addison turned 4 months on the 23rd of March (yep I'm so behind in the blogging) and it has been a fun, exciting, stressful, and tiring month to say the least! Mackenzie unfortunately got a bad cold and of course she CANNOT stop kissing her sister, so poor little Addie got it too. But when a little baby gets it, its seems to be so much worse. We ended up taking her to to the emergency one night because her breathing seemed pretty bad...they diagnosed her with broncolitis and had to stick little tubes down her nose to suck all the mucous out...poor baby!! Then because she had so much mucous she got an ear infection....bless her little heart!

While all this was going on she also got her two bottom teeth!!!! It shocked us on how fast she got teeth and because all of this her sleep schedule is a little messed up (not fun for mommy) but we are working on it.

Amongst all this she still manages to be the happiest baby in the world. Matt's parents used to call him smiley guy because all he would do is smile all the time. Addison is our smiley girl because that is seriously all she does. She is also sooooo ticklish, it cracks me up whenever we tickle her.

I have a feeling that Addie is going to do things pretty quickly, because of her older sister. She is already trying to sit on her own she can role over from back to tummy and loves to be on her tummy. She wants to do everything that her sister does, she is completely mesmerized by Mackenzie and of course Kenze just loves it.

My little muchie is such a blessing and we are all loving every minute!

Our 3 Month Old

Sweet Pea

Papa and all his girls :-)

Mac and Addie.....two peas in a pod :-)

Addison just turned 3 months old and even with our second, it amazes me how much babies grow and change. We have the most wonderful 3 month old, she laughs, coos, smiles and talks ALL the time! She is also a wonderful sleeper (which is something I am not used to..haha) and let me tell you, she NEEDS her sleep! Once nap time roles around and if she is not swaddled in her bed...WATCH OUT! Its the simple things that please her and yes being swaddled in her blanket and bouncing her on her ball (its a big exercise ball that we bounce on with her) puts this little girl to sleep in a matter of minutes! But this little routine is hard to do when we are out and about...so we are working on that.

She absolutely ADORES her big sister.....all it takes is Kenzie's voice and Addison has the biggest smile on her face. Lately I tell Kenze to jump and dance for Addie and when she does Addison just laughs....I swear she can watch Kenze for hours.

She is a BIG talker....she has so much to tell us and we love to listen. She is starting to talk while we are in the car too...I love that!

She is a growing happy baby and we could not be any more proud of our baby girl.

Children's Museum

We went to the Children's Museum in Phoenix and Kenzie (and Matt) had a blast! She played for about 3 hours straight and loved every moment. Such a great place to take kids; but unfortunately has A LOT of germs and poor Matt had to suffer through that for a couple of days. Yes he played with EVERYTHING too...haha.

Grocery Shopping.......

WOW.....so many things

She is so proud of her basket!

Getting ready to paint

So fun :-)

Our little angel that had fun with mama while her sister played :-)

"She thinks my tractors sexy"

My husband has worked so hard this offseason on our property trying to make it a wonderful home for us. I complain sometimes that he spends more time on that darn tractor of his than he does inside the house! But it has payed off. He bought this little tractor at the end of the season last year and oh my goodness he was seriously a kid in a candy store with that thing all offseason long! Here are some pictures of all the work that he has done....oh and I guess I do think his tractor is a little sexy :-)

The Tractor

His new batting cage :-)

Our new entrance....with trees :-)

She loves to go on rides with daddy :-)

A little piece of Mac

LOVES the park :-)

This is what we found when kenzie fed Ruby....she HAD to bring ruby the food :-)

......and she found her as she was telling Zoey "bad dog" because its RUBY'S food!!!

Such a big girl...no more high chair!!!

A little update on our BIG girl....Mackenzie is such a little crack up lately. She is now saying things that Matt and I cannot stop laughing at. The latest is EVERYTHING is beautiful "oh mommy that is beautiful" or "look mommy the stars and moon, they are beautiful." Matt and I call her a little parrot because she repeats EVERYTHING we say and do! We also taught her the song "Shake shake shake...shake your bootie" It is the funniest thing to hear when she sings it!

She adores Addison and Addie likes her too, whenever Mackenzie talks to her Addie smiles and looks so happy. She also adores all her grandparents and her Uncle Tay Tay and aunt boobie and she cannot get enough of her dogs and they are sooooo patient with her.

She can count from 1 to 10 and knows all her ABC's and the song too! We are working on her colors, right now everything is either red or pink (such the princess).

We are sooooo proud of our little girl and are enjoying every little moment of her :-)

Addison is 2 months old :-)

Happy Girl

Crazy Hair

Addie and her best friend Elsie (only 2 hours apart)

Our little Addie is getting so big! She is such a wonderful baby and makes me smile every minute of the day. She is starting to smile herself too and tell us little stories, she also recognizes her Mommy (who is her favorite person right now). She is a great sleeper and loves a schedule; she takes about 4 to 5 naps a day and also sleeps 5 to 6 hours straight at night and loves to be swaddled tight and rocked to sleep. She also has such amazing patience with all of us....especially her big sister who cannot get enough of her!

Her hair is a brown right now but she has blond growing in, so I'm anxious to see what color it will be. Her eyes are a light blue and her lashes are getting long and thick (which is what every woman wants), she also has such an amazing smile with the cutest little dimple to go along with it. I just love to stare and talk to her, she is truly the sweetest most lovable baby, we are so in love!

My new Obsession

My sister got me hooked on this site and I LOVE it!!!!! Makes me smile :-)

Addison is 1 month old

Matching Outfits :-)

With Uncle Kywoo :-)

Addison always has two people giving her a bottle :-)

It has been a very blessed but a little stressful month....Addison has taught me that true fact that not all kiddos are alike!!! Poor little thing I was doing all the things that I did with Kenzie and just assumed thats what all babies like.....boy was I wrong!!! Addison is also very vocal and will let you know the minute she is upset or wants something. So through trial and lots of error I have now realized that Addison loves to be swaddled really tight (kenzie did not), she loves for you to hold her swaddled and dance and sing to her, she also LOVES her sleep....do not let this little child get overtired or you will be in for it!!!! Eating of course is her most favorite thing...she never lost any weight from the hospital and at her two week check up she had already gained 16oz and grew 3 inches...YIKES!!! She is a little weed and we love it.

Addison has also taught me that your heart grows the minute you have another child....I love this little baby so much it hurts and I cannot wait (but I can a little) for her to grow and change before our eyes.

Christmas and New Years 2010

Christmas Morning

Oh wow look what santa got for me!!!

Our little cook

Matt and his siblings (we never get a pic of them together)

This is what the Grandmas got from Mac and Addie

Kenzie outside the Biltmore

We had a really great Christmas and New Years this year, Mackenzie of course made out big this year with all her presents. She got her first little kitchen and loves it....she cooks us something different every night. She also got lots of coloring things, pots and pans, stuffed animals, books, clothes, bath toys and the list goes on and on. Between her birthday and Christmas she started to ask me everyday if she could open a present! Addison also got a few things of her own too and soon she will be able to enjoy them.

For New Years Eve we packed up the entire family and drove to Arizona for our good friend Mark's wedding. It was a short but very fun trip, we stayed at the Arizona Biltmore and it was the first time that Matt and I were away from the girls for more than two hours!! After we rang in the New Year with great friends we went back to a room of sleeping kiddos!! Grandma and Papa did a great job getting them to go to sleep and it was soooo nice for Mommy and Daddy to get a little time away :-)

We are so excited for 2011 and we feel so blessed for our girls.....its going to be an amazing year watching them change and grow....HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
