The Funniest Thing.....

finally, we have a break in the rain.....so i took addie and the dogs on a very nice, long walk through the greenbelt and neighborhood! addie was sitting up the first half (she didn't want to have any part in the recline position of the stroller) and here's how she ended up, after my futile attempts to get her to sit back a bit! yeah, she could still breathe and what not, but she was comfy i guess!

Addie's First Veggie

well, we decided to try addie out on sweet potatoes a week prior to her 6 month birthday! as most of you know, we are making our own baby food, so you can see jp prepping the taters....pears are next! addie didn't know what to make of her first bite, but at least she didn't spit it out! will keep you posted!

t-dawg's b-day

i'm getting ready to fire up the grill and throw on some oysters for terri's b-day. her mom left to return home to tulsa today--we really enjoyed having her out here with us.

now here's addie...

yeah she's double-fisting (that's my little girl!)

it keeps going...

for breakfast we had some xmas eggs--a recipe i made up for today (eggs poached in milk with tomatoes, motz cheese, italian seasoning, over ham and eng muffins, topped with olive oil).

john and ally come over this afternoon for early dinner--terri is making lasagna.

we miss you all and hope the rest of our family is enjoying their time together. it's a chilly 59 degrees here today--burr!!

and more....

the morning turned a bit wild when dude and bella got stuffed toys from grandma and grandpa pulliam.

MORE XMAS PICS

kevin and pat sent addie a giant blue bunny which she immediately went for. dude celebrated xmas by having his own cup of coffee.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

terri, jo, addie, and i opened gifts this morning--and dude and bella of course. here is the first set of pictures!

ADDIE HAVING FUN!!!!

Addie had fun today, playing on the floor and sitting up by herself!

from the weekend

again, more addie pix!

i just can't help it! here's lots of addie hanging out w/ me (including sitting up by herself and playing on the sofa), and what the dogs were doing during that time--snoozing!

I goofed!

sorry..i selected two of the wrong photos to put on the blog and ended up with a duplicate! here's the other two pix that should have been in addie's morning collage!

Addie in the Morning =)

addie and i are having a fun morning! she's running all over the place in her walker-and running into furniture and everything in her path...she's too cute! so, because she's having a great morning, i decided to take some pictures of her in her jammies having a great time!

Hiking

today we went hiking with the harding family in the sycamore open space by our home...it was really nice, quiet and dude and bella had a great time. bella even flushed out a flock of pheasants from some bushes during the outing! it was fun to watch her in action! other than that, we chilled with addie this morning and had a nice breakfast while she cruised around in the walker! holidays are coming!
