Swim baby

Addie posing after her first dip in a pool!  She didn't fuss, but her face told us she preferred warm bath water to the cold pool water...and I prefer that temp too!!!

Thanksgiving with the Meyers!

This pre-thanksgiving dinner snooze was courtesy of an all night drive to California.  We couldn't have asked for a better time with our good friends--it was definitely well worth the drive!  

Amazing food and friends!

9 months and growing

Still topping the charts on height, but trimming down on her weight this month.   She lost the designation of "giant baby", which was bestowed on her by her doctor a couple of visits ago.  I think "happy baby" suits her better anyway!  :-)  9 month stats: Weight: 20# 11oz, Height: 29 1/2 inches.

Ladybug graduation!

Yep,  time is flying by!  Addie is graduating into the advanced "mobile baby" classroom next week.  It's sad to see her growing up so fast.  Plus, we love her teachers in her current classroom, so it's a bittersweet transition for us.  We like the dragonfly teachers a lot though too...so we will keep moving on I guess! 

Sick day

Addie was a bit under the weather all weekend, so as she slept her way back to health in our arms, Emma crafted our family into turkeys, and displayed her artwork in the window for all to see.  

Super school girl!

Emma is sporting her face paint from her super hero after-school crafts class today.  She also decided it was okay for me to take her picture with her honor certificate from school for being a good worker.  She was one of the kindergartners recognized for as being a "star student" for the month of October.  Way to go Super Student!  We're so proud of you!!!

Grammy and Grampy time

The girls kept Grammy and Grampy busy during their visit to us.  Emma got to show them around her new classroom and take Grammy trick or treating.  Lots and lots of fun having grandparents in town--the girls felt spoiled with all the attention they received!

Silly Girl

Trying on her new silly smiley face!
