18 month pics

Dear Addilyn,  Here you are at nearly 18 months!

You're getting so big!

Eating grapes in this one...

Right now you just came up to me and said "Bye" so I guess you want me take you somewhere. Ha.

Love you, Momma

Living the High Life

Dear Addilyn, there's nothing like eating corndogs and ketchup outside with cousins and the rooster crowing

Thankful for Alli and Anna-Kaye who helped my babysit on their Spring Break

Love you, Momma

Outside in the Rain

Dear Addilyn, Here's some cute pics of you playing outside in the rain one evening. 

Aunt Kimmy got you these rain boots and you were trying them out.

Lotta good they did but oh well

Here you are trying to eat rocks

And lastly my beautiful Bradford Pear tree

It stunk something awful but was pretty to look at.

Love you, Momma

March 29, 2011

Dear Addilyn,  I'm laying in the bed next to you as I type this, so thankful you're here and resting.  Just a few days ago on March 29, 2011, a day I will always remember just like July 6, 2004 when we nearly lost Seffy, you were so so sick.  On our way to Childrens Hospital I crawled into the back seat with you..I really thought you weren't going to make it there.  You were coughing constantly, gagging, and struggling to breath.  When we got to the hospital you were pale and sweaty.  After a few hours, chest and neck xrays, suctioning, and a dose of steroids we were able to come home.  Dx = Croup, along with the Strep throat you had already been dx with at the Peds office that morning.  Childrens Hospital was great.  And Addilyn, while you did catch your breath and quit coughing for a bit you were running around the waiting room like a crazy kid.  Climbing over chairs and benches, running away, bothering other sick kids who didn't feel like playing with you.  Your Daddy even said "Our kid is the worst one in here".  ha ha funny now.  Well guess Momma will get a little shut eye too while I can.....Love you, Momma

Daddy Help!!!

Dear Addilyn,  Diapers are for pooping.   Small pink pottys that we paid $24.99 at Target are for pooping.  Warm bubble baths with rubber duckies and clean little girls are not for pooping!  Seriously already.

This post has no pictures....you're welcome.

                                                                 Love you, Momma

Woo Pig Sooie! Go Hogs Go!

Dear Addilyn, Your Daddy is a huge Hog fan...which means we all have an assortment of Razorback clothes.  In addition to your clothes, you've also had Razorback bibs, sippie cup, paci, and sockies. Here you are supporting our team.

Cheerleader

You and Daddy

This is your pink Razorback sweatshirt.

I hope you grow up liking sports and the Razorbacks.  But, you can't go to the U of A...that's just too far away from Momma!! 

Love you...

Random Cuteness

Dear Addilyn,  Here are a few of Momma's (awful photography skills) favorite pics of you.  You hated your swing...not sure how I managed to get this pic without you crying.

I was given some money from my aunt as a shower gift.  I went and picked out this outfit for you.  Red and black....my favorite colors. 

Your 1st time to wear blue jeans! I remember laughing when I put these on you.  So cute.

This was your tutu outfit that Nana bought. Aunt Kimmy stopped by after school and dressed you.

Chubs in the tub!!

I LOVED LOVED LOVED this outfit.  My friend from church lets me buy clothes that her little girl has out grown.  You wore this to a supper at church when we were welcoming our new pastor.

Pretty eyes

Talking on the phone. 

This was your Halloween costume for church.  I got this at a yard sale and thought you'd be so cute since we had a farm theme at our church's Fall Fest.  But...it was a little small so you wore overalls instead.
