Yum Yum! (??)

Addison had her first baby food recently and has been sampling all sorts of new flavors. First up - green beans. It started off good and we thought she liked it, but she quickly changed her mind.



Bananas - yes!


Sweet potatoes - yes??.... Nooo! Her reaction to sweet potatoes was priceless!

Addison - Six Months Old

Addison turned six months old on May 22. She is such a happy baby and loves smiling! She has been crowned Miss Congeniality of her classroom at daycare because she smiles at all the parents when they come to pick up their little ones. She started sitting up unassisted just a few days before her half-birthday mark. She likes to sit most of the time, but when she's on her tummy she likes to push up on her arms, kick her legs and scoot around. She still likes chewing on her hands, even when Greyson tells her she needs to get her hands out of her mouth. Can you tell he's heard that before? She's been eating rice cereal for about a month and recently had her first taste of solids - green beans! She was not a fan of green beans! While Greyson ate anything and everything when he started solids, Addison has been a little pickier. We will see how she does with all these new flavors!



I love me some baby arm rolls!
Sitting up and concentrating so hard on getting that toy.
Sensory play at daycare with colored rice cereal. I think she had fun!

Family Date Night

We had a family date night and enjoyed some pizza and a Pizookie at BJ's Brewhouse. Although we have offered a Pizookie (ice cream on warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie) to Greyson before, he never wanted to try it. We were beginning to wonder if he was our child when he said he didn't like ice cream (gasp!!). Then he tried it and couldn't get enough! Now I am wondering if I made a mistake by offering it to him...


Scooping up every. Last. Bite.
Love that big smile!

Kisses for Addison

Greyson loves being a big brother! He loves giving Addison kisses, even if she isn't always the most cooperative little sister!

Lilly's Dance Recital

Last weekend we visited the Moores to watch Hallie play baseball and Lilly's dance recital. We only watched a few minutes of Hallie's game before it was cancelled due to rain/lightning, so unfortunately I didn't get any pictures. We headed to Utopia for the rest of the day and Greyson loved playing with his cousins. I think he wore them out following them around all day wanting to play! Addison slept though Lilly's dance recital, but Greyson loved watching her dance and he clapped and cheered for her when it was over.

Addison woke up in time to get a picture with Lilly.

Addison wanted to play but Greyson wasn't quite ready to wake up, so he held her hands so she wouldn't hit his face. Ahhh, sibling love.
