my mother's day gifts....

here are the stepping stones that we made for my mother's day gifts this year. as you can see, one is of addie's hands with her name and the date, and the other has all 3 dogs paw prints surrounded by lots of colored glass! they look great leading up to the hot tub!

laughing, watching birds, kissing bella, and stretching out

just too cute!

addie's first nap in a 'big girl bed'!

ok...so looks like addie is very close to sleeping in a real bed. today, addie fell out of the crib for the first time. still unown if she flipped out, or tried to climb out - but the large "thump" felt and heard this morning was scary enough; followed by addie screaming bloody murder! she's fine, and only took her about 5 minutes of me cuddling her to let me leave the room without her crying! she fell asleep and the pictures say it all!
