What we've been up to

I like feeding myself and don't want mommy and daddy to help anymore!

Playing at the beach in Seal Beach

Knocking down the towers that mommy builds.

It seems like we have been so busy since school has started back up again! Addison is doing great and took 2 steps on her own this weekend! I know it will be a matter of time! She has taken a lot of falls in all her walking practice and seems to constantly have a bruise somewhere on her head, poor girl!

Nightly guitar lessons with daddy

10 Months Old

This is her concentration face with the tongue out!

Riding the train at the zoo!

Ready to go to a birthday party!

I can't believe 1 is just around the corner! This month has been another busy month for Addison. She is babbling a lot and saying the "d", "b", "l" and "y" sounds a lot. (Seems to have forgotten how to say "mama," but oh well!) She is starting to wave bye-bye and pointing. She is standing for a few seconds on her own and is cruising around the furniture. She has figured out how to open drawers and cabinets, leading us to have a massive baby-proofing session this past weekend! She eats just about anything and is preferring finger foods now more than baby foods. Tonight she ate: turkey/vegetable baby food, a hard-boiled egg yolk, cooked zucchini and cooked carrots. Addison continues to be such a happy girl and is always smiling and laughing. She definitely has opinions now and will let you know it if you take something away from her that she wants or if she's bored (usually in the car). She is becoming quite the dare-devil and will try and climb things or over things or through things. She's become a little more clingly lately and is always hanging onto my legs when I'm cooking dinner in the kitchen. It is so fun to see her little personality developing and the funny facial expressions she makes. Happy 10 month birthday Addy Grace! We love you!

Daddy's going to have her on a surfboard in no time!

Dinnertime conversation

Addison is becoming very vocal lately and she had a lot to say tonight!

Fun Weekend

With cousin James

Loving on Aunt Gail

I think I'm so funny!

Having fun at the park!

We had a fun weekend! My aunt, uncle and cousin were in L.A. for a basketball tournament and drove down on Saturday for the day. We went to Coronado and had a nice lunch and walked around the Hotel Del Coronado. Today we went to church and then after Addison's nap we went to the park for awhile. She stood up on her own for a few seconds, so walking might be just around the corner!
