Addie Singing the ABCs

It took about 4 months to get Addie to do this for the camera! Jason bribed her with candy, I guess whatever works. You will need to turn the music down at the bottom of the blog to be able to hear her!

Addie's First Sleep Over!

Jason and I were very excited to attend our friends wedding last night. I decided to be a little less wimpy and let Addie sleep over at my sister's house. Thank you, Jessie! All was well, we went to a beautiful wedding, eat wonderful food, and enjoyed being out of the house. We got home about 11:30pm and I was off to bed! I felt so weird to not have my baby at home (the first time ever). Jessie said that Addie was doing great and talking up a storm. They went to bed around 9:00 (my nephew, who is five, Jessie and Addie all slept in the same bed - I wish I could have seen this!) Addie woke Jessie up because she was tossing and turning in the bed. Jessie thought she felt warm so she woke Addie up and took her temp., which was 103. Oh my gosh! I got the call about 4 in the morning that she was in our driveway. What a great sister! She drove 30 minutes to my house and did not call until she was there. So much for sleeping in! :-) Addie was fever free this morning but it has continued to rise as the day goes on. She has done this to us before (this is the 3rd or 4th time) she runs a high fever with no other symptoms. I am not sure what the deal is. Last time it go to 104.5, I hope it does not get that high - that was scary. Other than the fever, she is pretty happy and eating so I am not sure what to do.

On a more fun note, we had a wonderful time with Addie last weekend. We went to the Zoo for some trick-or-treating, she got her first haircut and we went to Huber's Farm. Jason was off on Saturday so we took advantage of the extra time together. Here are a few pictures of all the fun!

Addie's First Haircut~

She did very well but if you look closely she is eating a bunch on M&Ms in that yellow box. Once she got those she was very happy! Thank you MeMa for a great new haircut. We love it.

This picture was taken before the candy. She was not too thrilled. These are pictures for Huber's Farm. She had a great time. It was well worth the drive! This is Addie with her Papa Dave. Addie's first hay ride. I think this was her favorite part of the day. She did not want to get off the tractor. May the hunt begin for the perfect pumpkin. She looked forever - it had to be round she told us. Are you kidding me - a perfectly round pumpkin - we did our best.

The winning pumpkin and proud Addie.

Jacob is moving up a storm. He kicks all day long! It is funny how quickly you forget about this kind of stuff. It is so fun and exciting to feel him moving in there all the time. I am feeling like he might be a soccer player! :-) Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
