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!

ADDIE'S 5 MONTH BIRTHDAY!

well, addie turned 5 months old today! where has the time gone? addie celebrated today by sitting on her own, w/ no help from mommy! she sat for more than 45 seconds at a time, and was generous enough to do it several times so i could take these pix! enjoy!

addie loves her daddy

everyone together now......ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

xmas lights and addie eats rice cereal

you really can't tell that i spent 6 hours hanging lights on the house...but i did. and i'd do it again:) terri has taken to calling me sparky and clark.

addie is eating rice cereal every day.
