Happy Halloween!!

These were taken yesterday at Arrow's Halloween Party. Addison was a hit ;) She brought home a lot of candy (all of which she will NOT be eating ;) We plan on taking her around to a couple houses tonight for trick or treating.

Thanks to Mary for making her tutu!!! It turned out perfect! She was one happy little bee!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Pictures from our trip to Rockford, IL

This one is a little blurry.. but she was being SO good waiting for us to board the plane. Shortly after this picture was taken she started running all over the terminal. Erik and I really did get lucky, and I cannot say it enough how AWESOME she was on the entire trip! For 15 months old she really was a trooper!

Watching as the planes come in to DIA.

Sound asleep on the way to Rockford. She did awesome. She slept all the way there and back!! She was the perfect little traveler!

Every morning she would go into Grandma Dana's kitchen and "feed" the doggies some of her cereal. They all learned to follow her around and wait for food to drop. Needless to say Addison was a BIG hit!

Posing with Daddy - I think this picture is so funny. We went to Edwards Apple Orchard in Poplar Grove, IL on Thursday 10.23.08. It was a little chilly, but Addy had a great time and loved playing outside.

Farmer Addison

Feeding the goats - which I found pretty gross. She thought it was funny though.

Climbing on HER cabin. The little house was just the right size.

Erik kept jumping up and making her laugh. She thought he was hilarious!

Looking cute at the top of the slide. She had SO much fun playing on everything.

Playing on the train with her Daddy.

Addison picking out her pumpkin - she just kept saying "MORE MORE" but we only let her pick 2.

Erik & I @ Cliffbreakers for the Rehearsal Dinner. It was so nice to see so many friends from Rockford and have a night out.

Drew & his mother Debbie. That is his Dad Mark in the back. Drew was SO sweet. He kept tearing up and had tears streaming down his face almost the entire ceremony. He looked so happy!

Tania & her brother Greg as he walked her down the isle. Her dress was beautiful! All the bridesmaids wore red and looked stunning!

Erik & our friend Joey Nicosia. Two of Drew's good looking groomsmen ;)

Ms. Carla Dawn in her 28th week of pregnancy! Carla looks great, and is looking forward to the arrival of little Riley in January.

Our good friends the Daughtry's. CONGRATS to the new parents to be!! Jen is due June 2009! Baby Landgren will have a little Daughtry to play with!! I am sad to report that I had an AWESOME video of the Daughtry's singing "Faithfully" by Journey - and it didn't turn out :( I was SO bummed. You can hear them singing.. but its too dark to see anything. BUMMER.

Here is Addison & C.J. @ The Swedish Pancake House in Rockford. She adores C.J. and the pancakes were a close second ;)

Addy & her favorite Cousin C.J. (That is Dana's dog Elvis sitting with them)

Welcome Baby Tiernan Elizabeth B!!

Here is a picture of my new "niece" Tierney. Isn't she a doll?!?!?! She was such a good baby when I went to see her. Congrats again to Mary, Jay & Reagan! Welcome to the world Tierney!!

Trip to Illinois, I have a new "niece" & some Landgren News

First off - we had an AWESOME visit to Illinois. It was great to see everyone and I have some great pictures to share. Congrats to Drew & Tania on their wedding! It was a great day and we are very happy for the both of them.

Once I get caught up with everything I missed at work I will post some pictures. Addison had a great time and did really well on the plane.

Congrats to Mary & Jay on the birth of their daughter Tiernan "Tierney" Elizabeth. Born October 24 - 7.5lbs, 19 3/4" long and cute as a button!! I got to see her Monday night and she is so precious!! She is a really good baby, and I know Reagan (big sister) is just going to adore her! I have pictures of Tierney too - I will post them soon!

Last (but not least) Erik and I are excited to announce that we are expecting another little one in late April 2009! :) So far I have been feeling really good, and I am glad to report that baby looks to be healthy as well. We find out in late November if we are having a boy of girl (My gut tells me this little one is a GIRL!) and I will share the news then.

Addison is officially moved into her "big girl" room and has adjusted really well. She is still in a crib, but we got her one that will convert to a toddler bed when she is ready. Addy is growing up so fast and has become so much fun! Her vocabulary improves so much everyday, and even though she STILL doesn't have any teeth - you would be amazed at how fast my kid can scarf down food :)

Pictures to come soon!! Hope this finds you all well!

Go Bears

Aunt Jessica bought Addison this cheerleading outfit, and brought it with her from Illinois this past weekend. Thanks Jess!! If Erik gets his way - she will be wearing it every Sunday :)

WOOHOO My kid has teeth!!!

I just downloaded some pictures over the last couple weeks and thought I would post them on here. Since I last posted Addison went to the pediatric dentist on the advice of our pediatrician. She still doesn't have any teeth and is turning 15 months on Thursday. I am happy to report that my little lady has a mouth full of teeth!! They did an x-ray when the dentist couldn't see any signs of teeth. They are all in there - but the dentist said Addy will be closer to 18 months before she really starts teething. We were also told to expect her to get a bunch of teeth at one time. I am just so thankful and happy that my kid has teeth! I guess I am lucky I have had 15 months full of toothless smiles when some people only get a few months. She also said Addison will be about a year behind most kids when they start losing their teeth.. she will have hers for a bit longer. Here are some random pictures over the past 2 weeks.

Sporting her new Raccoon hat for the winter.

Here is her first attempt at coloring. She would rather just put the crayons into her mouth

Showing her Daddy her artwork.

Playing w/ her babies. This is her FAVORITE thing to do. She will put her babies in the highchair or stroller and feed them.. then push them around the house.

We are going to Rockford, IL to see family and attend Drew Whitfield's wedding in a couple weeks. I will have some great pictures from that.

Have a great week!
