Hair Clips & Flower

She loves to play with these hair clips that I got her.

Ooooh, a flower!

Fun at the Park

We didn't make it to playgroup last Thursday so instead we hit the park for a little outdoor time. It has been so nice here, but it started to warm up quite fast! Her favorites at the park are the swing and the slide.

Her New Thing

Addison's new thing that she keeps doing is taking off her clothes and putting on clothes. She has been able to do this for awhile now, but it seems here lately it has become her new obsession. The above photo cracked me up! She can get her pants up but getting them over he diaper is the hard part. The other morning I go in to get her and she has pulled clothes off the top of her bookcase into her crib and was trying them on! Funny!

Soccer Game

Addison loves bubbles! This entertained her for a minute and kept her from running out onto the field to Paul.

32 Week Checkup

I had my 32 week checkup this last week and both baby and I are well. My blood pressure is doing so much better this time! It was 117/71! WOOHOO! Let's just hope it continues to stay that way. It was not like I had BP issues last time until the very end, but now I know how dangerous that can be I just have worried about it a bit more this time is why I mention it. I only gained 5 pounds after being away on vacation to FL and TN for two weeks! Not bad since I am suppose to gain a pound a week so one extra pound ain't no thang considering I really started showing during this time. My maternity clothes seriously had tags on them until I went home! I guess I just need to go home to start showing and for Addison to get teeth! (I posted about that earlier.) Anyway, I digress.....oh, all was well. I did measure farther along again, which is why I say 32 weeks (ISH). He will come when he is good and ready. Which I have to say, I am feeling VERY pregnant these days. I am having acid reflux, braxton hicks contractions a lot and my hips and back have been really really really hurting these days. I did get his bedding and we ordered his furniture! FINALLY! I have been in no hurry this time to do anything! I guess it really is different the second time around, BUT I gotta get with it because once he is here I won't have a lot of extra time for a bit soooooo....this next little bit we are getting things in order! My next appointment I fill out the info for the birth certificate, my hospital admission paperwork and I get my stork parking permit! WOOHOO!!!! The doctor will also see if I am dilated at that point. Updates to come!

So hang on little man, you need a little more time to bake, but Mommy and Daddy cannot wait to see you and hold you in their arms....not too much longer at all!

Swimming at The Centre

I found out about The Centre from some of the ladies at playgroup. I thought it would be something fun to do last weekend since they have a play area for small children among other things. I did not get to take a lot of pics because I did not want to ruin my camera, but I tried to get at least a few photos.

When we first got there she needed a few minutes to warm up to playing.

Paul making a splash at the end of the slide....and no, I did not slide down it! This baby may fall out if I had done something like that! ;)

Once she felt comfortable she was off! She liked the spraying water and she even would walk into chest deep water like it was nothing. I did not get to get pics of the frog slide, but she LOVED it! She loves slides and this one was super cool with spraying water.

She did not want to leave, but it was time for dinner so we needed to head out. We had some great BBQ on the way home (she ate more pickles than BBQ) and she slept good that night! We had a fun day.

More Random Catch-ups

This child LOVES rotini pasta! Look at that mess and of course that big ole smile!!!

She was putting her babies in her stroller and I guess she decided to take a seat herself.

Big Sisters are the coolest! Too bad she is about to outgrow this shirt...it is a long sleeve so she wouldn't get to wear it much longer anyway.

Oh, Mommy got me some new hair accessories. She just loves making little pinsheels in my hair, but I love to play with the clips!

Catching Up With Random Shots

It poured down the rain on this day, but we made it out to play group anyway. I had to take a photo of her raincoat...I think it is soooo cute! She got plenty of compliments on it too! ;)

It was nice this day so we took a walk.

Putting the pacifer in her baby's mouth. I think she will be a good big sister!

Rockin' a sideways ponytail!

Remember When

This was taken about a year ago! She was taking steps and look how far along she has changed in just a year!!! I cannot believe that it has went this fast!

My Hometown Best Friend

Holly is my hometown best friend since elementary school! I am so glad she got to meet Addison and we got to get a lunch date in! We ate at the old Bakery in town and it was a good time. I was afraid I would not get a chance to see her, but we did and it was nice catching up! I wish I had gotten more pictures of us.

Ring Around the Rosies

I have to say these girls were HILARIOUS!!!! What a fun night! Whoever watches this video is guaranteed to smile without a doubt!

Swing Us Again & Again
