A friend of ours wanted to practice her photography, and it worked out perfectly that Addison was turning 6 months old and needed her picture taken anyways ;) So, here are some of my favorites!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Yay for warm weather!

Since the weather was so nice today, Addison got to experience her first day outside! First Addison and I went for a walk around the neighborhood. It was nice to get out and not be cooped up in the house all day! Addison liked looking around at everything and didn't even make a sound. She was just taking it all in! :) Then when Chunny got home we went for a bike ride. I got to ride my new bike that I got for my birthday and Addison got to ride in her new baby seat! She really liked that too! Afterwards we sat Addison down in the grass so she could check it out. She just kept touching it and was concentrating so much on it that she wouldn't even look up at us for pictures :) We're looking forward to an even warmer day tomorrow!

Happy 6 Months Addison!!!

At 6 months Addison...

-likes to say mmmmmm, and hasn't quite figured out how to say ma-ma... but, has just recently starting saying da-da-da-da-da and now that has become her new favorite sound to make! So, I guess you could say her first word was da-da :)
-can sit up all by herself.
-has 2 teeth.
-likes all the baby food she has tried (carrots, green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, applesauce, peaches, and prunes), but doesn't like bananas...she must be like her mommy :)
-gets really excited when she sees Chesney (our cat) and smiles and squeals!
-tries SO hard to crawl, but just hasn't figured it out yet. She goes backwards and gets frustrated when she moves away from her toys and can't reach them.
-has an orange and yellow stuffed monkey that is her favorite toy. It came from her play mat and she loves it!
-is usually calmed by her pacifier...I don't know if that's necessarily a good or bad thing!
-talks up a storm and laughs a lot...especially when she's tired.
-has been waking up at midnight every night. I think it's just because she wants to see her mommy :) but we're trying to kick her of that habit...now we just have to figure out how!
-enjoys watching TV...don't know if that's a good or bad thing either :)
-gives big hugs and usually pulls your hair or scratches you while she's at it! She's got a good, tight grip!
-is still pretty jumpy and gets scared at the least expected things.
-got her first hair cut at 5 1/2 months old. The mullet/rat tail was looking pretty bad! We have a cute little hair sample tied in a bow for a keepsake :)
-has a brand new friend born on her 6 month birthday...Collin Bradley Fishburn! Both Addison and Collin's fathers have arranged their marriage already...hehe :) Congrats Keith and Jenn!
