Getting Big

Addison has almost outgrown her car seat. I pretty much can't even carry her in it. There was an awesome sale on a big girl seat so we decided to upgrade. I had gone without Dave and the box was HUGE. Just picture me dragging this box while trying to keep Addison from pulling everything off the shelves to the checkout. It isn't quite as much of a struggle to get her in and out as her old one. Out little baby is growing up!!!
Check out those cheeks and neck region! She is our little round meatball.

We have been relativity lucky this winter with mild temperatures. Dave prays for snow everyday and this weekend it came true. It was time for Addison to get her first taste and face plant into the snow. The face plant was an accident, but she loved eating the snow! I think she is in the running for the cutest snow bunny around. I'm sure next winter we will be seeing this little snow angel running around in the snow!

We are slowly trying to convince Addison that big people food is the way to go. She pulls a sour face every time I try to give her anything non baby food. She tolerates a little more each time. However, I don't think that avocados will ever make the list. Bananas are being a favorite and she gobbles rice snacks so fast! She is also learning to not chomp down on that finger that sneaks its way in there too.  She officially has her first tooth! Her bottom front right tooth broke through last week. My dad was starting to tell us we should have moved to West Virginia instead where people with no teeth are accepted. I also was convinced that she wasn't born with any teeth either. She proved us all wrong! She has been a little bit fussier and not taking good naps, but we will pull through this!
 Not thrilled about feeding herself the banana.

We are also working on our mobile skills around here too. Addi isn't crawling yet, but she will manages to get herself in trouble. She will tuck one leg back and lean forward as far as possible and then sit right back up. I guess as long as she gets what she wants in the end we are all happy! Her favorite thing to do is to stand up to her lion toy and bounce up and down.  Pulling all her books off the shelf is also a fun thing to do:)

Look who still loves bath time!

We still dedicate all our spare time to watching Bones. We have squeezed in a few fun game nights and some dining out experiences with friends.
