Birthday Video

If you have 15 minutes to kill and are feeling like seeing a P-nut grow up right before your eyes, watch this!!! This is the video Mommy made for me on my birthday. Although I am sure our guests weren't as excited about it, Mommy & Daddy thought it was pretty special and I am sure when I get older I will love watching it!

First Birthday Pictures

Finally pictures from my party!!!! It took Mommy forever to get this done, but here they are! My birthday was a fun-filled day. Fist Mommy, Daddy, and I went out for breakfast. Then I went to school to celebrate with my friends and to give Mommy and Daddy time to get my party set up. We had dinner and a surprise birthday cake and Aunt Sandi & Uncle Craig’s that night. Saturday was the big party- 60 people were there! We had so much fun swimming, playing, and eating. I wasn’t too thrilled about the cake and icing, but I loved the singing and clapping! Thanks to everyone who celebrated with me!!!! It was a blast and although I won’t remember it, I have TONS of pictures to remember the day!

I Am Walking!

Life as Mommy & Daddy know it is over!!!! Last Sunday I decided it was time to walk and I haven't stopped yet. As a matter of fact, I am getting so good at it that I am trying to run! Mommy took some video on her camera, but once again for got to hold the camera the right way, so sorry, but the videos are sideways, so you can turn your head or your computer monitor- LOL!!! Oliver even took the opportunity to get in the video! Enjoy!

July- What a month!

Well to start, Mommy was home with me all month- what fun! We spent a lot of time shopping and getting ready for my birthday party. Then, we went on vacation with Miss Lauren, Mr. Rob, Emily &Jack to Perdidio key for a week. We had a blast! On Wednesday, Aunt Sandi, Uncle Craig, and Natalee joined us! We went to the beach, went to the zoo, and ate a lot. On our way, we stopped in Pensacola to visit my Aunt Pat, Uncle Ralph and all of my cousins. We had a delicious dinner, played a lot and even got to go on the boat and see the Blue Angels! See the pictures here:

The biggest news of all is that I took my first 5 steps while we were in Perdido. The funny thing is now I only take a few steps here and there. Mommy and Daddy are anxiously waiting for me to take off running. I am sure it will be any day now! Come back soon to see pictures of my First Birthday Luau. It was one big bash! Once we have pictures back from our photographer I will post them. Until then, love to you all, Addison

Heartfelt Thanks

After what seemed like a party that would never end (and trust me I was thrilled about that :)), I realized what an amazing day it was!!! Words can never express the gratitude I feel for our family and friends. Having everyone at Addison's first birthday party meant so much. Although the planning seemed to take forever and the day started out hectic, it was all worth it. So many times I looked around yesterday and thought, "we are the luckiest people in the world". We have such amazing friends and family who have been supportive of us this last year and for years prior. We are truly blessed!!!!! It was so fun to watch all the kids play together and think, so many of us have all been friends for so long and just to think our kids will grow up knowing each other is the best feeling ever! Addison is so fortunate to have 2 sets of grandparents and 2 great grandmas, not may kids can say that! With 7 cousins and over 15 friends that are all within a few years of her, she will surely never get lonely. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for everything- for the very generous gifts, for being a part of Addison's big day, and just for being who you all are! I love you guys!!!! ~Lenore
PS- Check back soon for birthday party pictures and Addison's July updates... sorry we're running behind!
