My lovely Avery @ 9 months

Little Miss Avery Sophia Frances turned 9 months last Thursday (where has the time gone?!?!?) She has her 9 month doctor appt next week & I am anxious to see how tall she is and what she weighs. Avery is already in 12-18 month clothes due to the fact anything less than 12 months is just too short on her. She is a SPEED crawler - but she only crawls backwards. Its pretty funny to watch, and I should post a video of it soon. She is still the same calm, mellow baby she has always been - and I love every minute of it! Avery ADORES her big sister, and is able to play with her more and more every day!

Addison's BIG girl Bed

1/30/2010 - We officially moved Addison into her Big Girl bed today! Our pediatrician recommended we try it -since Addison is getting up a lot at night in her toddler bed. So we have it all set up and ready to go! She napped in it today and did really well - I hope tonight goes well too!!

On a final note for the past month we can officially say Addison is potty trained. WOOHOO!! She now has quite the stash of big girl underwear and we couldn't be more proud of her!!

Christmas 2009 pictures

For the 3 people who read this - I am FINALLY getting around to posting pictures from this past Christmas. There isn't an order to them (due to the fact I am watching both girls right now) -but at least I am finally getting them up!

My super cute 2.5 year old Addison :) She looks sweet & innocent....she has her moments though :)
Papa D & Miss Avery on Christmas night. My Mom bought the girls matching aprons for their new play kitchen.

Erik having a glass of wine - and frankly looking A LOT like a pirate.

Avery & I Christmas Morning.

Addison sporting her new apron from Grandma Maggie. She wears it ALL the time. She just got a new apron from Reagan's b-day party and she now switches off wearing them. Needless to say BOTH aprons are getting a lot of use!

Addy Shea on Christmas Day having a tea party with all her new toys. So stinkin' cute!

A & A's new kitchen. They love it and play with it all the time!

Addison & Avery's visit to Santa - 2009.

Well I am just glad the pictures are up :) Honestly I am working a lot, and between that and the girls - I just don't make the time to blog. I need to!!

Hope this finds everyone well!
