Vintage Fashion Show- 7 months old!

Whazzzz up?
girlie girl
Summertime beach babe
Don't know how I managed to fit in this 12 month suit during the summer, it's a little on the snug side for Addie at 7 months
Modeling so some sweeeet sandals of moms
Warning: Flasher on our hands
Is this what they call a sweater zute-suit?? (forgive my spelling that was before my time)
"And now, Addie Karen, modeling the sweetest one piece, ever-so-itchy, stick to my skin sweater pantshirtfootie thing"
What mother couldn't resist dressing up her daughter in her very own beautiful fashionable baby wear from 1979-1980. Well, I whipped it out for Addie's vintage style show, cedar chest smell and all, and she thoroughly hammed it up for this photo session. (it didn't hurt that her brother was attempting to crawl into her exersaucer and made good entertainment for Addie) PS Addie's latest and greatest at 7 months is now rolling from one end of the house to the other, literally. Who needs to crawl? We got super roller.

Thank you Sinclair

On our way back from the north shore, Ethan got to enjoy a few minutes sitting and playing with the big dinosaur, thanks to our friends at Sinclair gasoline.

Happy Trails

We enjoyed a picnic lakeside at Temperence River State Park Ethan proud of himself that he ate is sandwich in one piece (usually it's the cheese, then the ham and maybe the bread) Addie taking a pit stop (or catch your breath stop) with mom

6 months old!

Thanks for the "fancy pants" Grandma Linda!
Okay since Addison is almost 7 months old now, I figured I should post some 6 months pics. She has now grown to 27 inches (91%) and 17.13 lbs (85%). She is starting to sprout a few more hair nodules. Her new nickname is spike(ette). She is loving cereal, fruits and veges. Ethan always seems to point out "Addie's messy, mom". She loves sitting in the highchair or if it's occupied as our centerpiece in her bumbo. She is working on sitting up on her own and does fairly well for a short period of time. After that she just likes to plop over. Addison's new favorite is her crazy brother. He makes her belly laugh all the time. It's so fun to watch them play together. Scott asked me the other day if it was normal that the 2 were getting along so well....yeah, my reply was "JUST WAIT!" It won't be long before the tattle taleing and sharing issues arise here. I guess I will just enjoy it now while she is immobile and can't talk. (because that luxury is not gone with terrible 2's Ethan) can you say WHHIINNOO!

Boot kicking good time in Texas!

Inside the Alamo
San Antonio River walk...I have never EVER seen so many restaurants in one place before.
Flamingo's at Sea World
Shamu show...Excellent!
Feeding the ravenous seagulls
This was about as far as I got into the gulf, a wee bit chilly
Doug showing us the shrimpin' boats
We got to have an up close view of the boats coming in off of the gulf We also watched this pelican down about 6 fish while we were sitting here.
Gigantic ship, Jane thought portable hospital coming back from Haiti, Scott agreed some kind of medical ship. Doug thought something to do with cables and Pete (Grandpa Peavey) confirmed it was a wire/cable layer. I didn't know what the hell it was.
Scott and I spent the week before Easter in Port Aransas Texas with his parents and Grandpa Peavey and Margaret. The weather was PERFECT and we enjoyed the rest and relaxation (despite my ongoing nasal congestion and massive nose mucous...sorry Jane and Doug). We laid by the pool, walked the beach, visited San Antonio and Sea World and attempted to party like we were 21 again. (yeah, we realized we are far from 21) Ethan and Addison were in good hands at Grandma and Grandpa B's daycare service. (thank you, thank you, thank you). Ethan had my dad wrapped around his finger with his 50 trips to various parks in town and aahhh yes, Addie and my mom spent a lot of quality time together, at 1 am, 4 am and 6 am. Nice Addie. Not to mention, she has slept through the night and/or only gotten up once since we've been home. I think she just enjoyed one on one time with Grandma. Thanks Grandpa Peavey for letting us come enjoy the beautiful scenery and warm weather. We look forward to invading again maybe next year!
