Addyson

Addyson is growing so fast. she woke uo the other night and i walked in her room and she was standing just like this only the mattress was 5 inches higher. she was right about to flip over. my heart about jumped out of my chest. She has started crawling this week. It happened so fast. I will get some video. She is so dang cute.





Tired of taking pics.


What a little flirt. I wonder where she gets it from. probably her father.


Look out boys here she comes.

We miss you grandma

Yesterday would have been my grandma's 97th birthday and i thought i write a few of my memories of her.

I REMEMBER...
when she would always ask if it was raining outside.
when she would always ask what you brought her if you walked in the house with plastic bags
when she would ask for a little swallow of your soda so she could burp
when she would try and feed the dogs her left overs behind our back
how she would let me sit in her lap and she would just rock me
how she always asked me if i had clean underwear on in case i got in accident
how she would always be the first to crack a joke
how strong she was
how much she loved her husband and never looked at an other man after he died
how she loved to be out side playing in all her plants
what a good cook she was
how much she taught me
how much she loved me
how she would cheat at any game we would play
how funny she was
her laugh
her smile
her spirit
how she would never let you say goodbye, it was always so long. cause goodbye means you are never coming back


Grandma i know it was not goodbye when you left. I know that we will be together again. I feel so blessed to have the gospel in my life and for the knowledge i have. I feel so blessed to know that through our heavenly Fathers plan families can be together forever and that we will be with our loved ones again some day. I know that you are in a better place and that it is so much better there than it is here. I know you are happy and i want you to know that there is not a day goes by that i dont think of your beautiful smiling face. I miss you so much. I love you with my whole heart. I know the time is not far away till we are together again. so long till we meet again.

Addyson's checkup

We went today for Addyson's checkup. She is doing great! She is 14 lbs 10 oz and 25 1/2 inches long. She is in the 10% for weight so the Dr wants me to feed her more. I dont know how that is possible cause the girl eats like a freakin cow, but we will see what we can do.She is just a skinny girl. I was like that too. I dont know what the crap happened but i was just like that till i was about 14. stupid puberity. We go back again right before we leave for her next round of shots. She is growing so fast and it makes me so sad. I mean i love to watch her grow but i cant take how fast it happens.

Things here are going great. We are packing slowly and getting things ready to go. We leave in a month from today. I am going to miss the fam but i am very excited to be on our own again. I am excited to watch Jason grow and start down his career path. We have been so blessed to have been able to live with my mom and pay off debt and save. We have done so much in such a short period of time. It is such a huge burden lifted from our shoulders. Things are amazing. I will write again shortly.

Sleeping through the night!!

About a week ago we started Addyson on a different sleeping schedule. It was killing us that she was waking up 3 and 4 times a night. I got an email with some different techniques to help your baby sleep through the night. THEY WORKED!!! The first night we did it she slept 9 hours. She has slept every night since. It has been great!! She sleeps from 8:30 to about 8:00.Naps from 10 to 12 and 3-5 like clock work. It is amazing. She is growing so fast, it blows my mind. It is so fun to be able to watch her learn and grow everyday. I am so blessed to have the opportunity to be home with her.
Here she is with her glasses. She loved them!
