First Plane Trip

This past weekend Tim, Addy, & I traveled up to Northern California.  We have made this trip together as a family, but this time was different.  We flew!  I must admit, I was a little worried about taking Addy on the plane and I did not want to be that mother with a screaming baby the whole trip.  I just kept telling myself it was a short flight and even if she did scream, it would only last for about an hour and half. 
Tim and I were super lucky and Addy did not even fuss a little bit.  She made it through taking off and a VERY turbulent landing like a champ.  Tim and I were also able to maneuver all of our "stuff" through the airport and made it up and back successfully. 

Daddy's Little Girl

My Father's Day post was kind of lame...I will be the first to admit it.  Doesn't really matter though, because my little girl really LOVES her daddy.  I get lots of opportunities to take pictures of my two loves and here is just one more picture of Tim & Addy sleeping together (which they are also doing while I am typing this).

Notice how Addy is grabbing Tim's shirt?  She is grabbing EVERYTHING!  Of course, that is for another blog post.  Enjoy this photo for now. :-)

Father's Day

I am a horrible wife...I was just taking some pictures of Addy and looking back through past pictures I have taken I realized there was the picture I had Tim take on his first Father's Day.  :-(
Anyways, we came home from Palm Springs on Father's Day.  Tim had to work (nope TJs doesn't give fathers the day off) so we came home pretty early so we could just chill.  On our way home Addy got super sick (our first real experience) and Tim earned his title of "AWESOME Dad". Addy was worn out so she wouldn't even wake up to take a picture with her daddy.  Oh well. Still a cute picture.

So, happy belated Father's Day to my best friend, my awesome husband, and a fabulous daddy!  LOVE YOU MONKEY!

My sweet girl

Addy and I were having a rough afternoon, until we feel asleep together on the couch.  Amazing how cuddling with a baby can erase the frustrations of the day.  I was able to snap a picture (thank goodness for cell phone cameras!) without waking my little one up and thought she was too adorable to not share.

Real food...mmmmm.

At Adelyn's 4 month check-up, our pediatrician gave us the thumbs up to start her on real food.  He suggested we start with cereal first and then to ease her into real food.  I was super excited and headed over to Henry's to buy some cereal and jars of food.  I forgot some baby spoons, so we bought those yesterday.
Today, after I put the high chair together, Addy tried baby cereal.  She did pretty good, other than putting her hands in her mouth, and seemed to really enjoy the cereal.  We had cereal again for dinner and it was still a success.  So much fun!!
And of course I have a video:


And some pictures:

Laundry

I hate laundry...I actually don't mind putting laundry in the washer and then the dryer, but I have a really hard time folding laundry.  When I lived at my mom's house, I used to take my laundry out, put it on her pool table, and then leave it until I had worn everything.  When I was in college, I would leave it in the dryer until my roommates took it out and put it in my laundry basket.  Then I would sift through my basket everyday to get my outfit for the day.  When I got married, I would plan laundry day to a day when both Tim and I were home so we could do it together (only 1/2 of the work!).  Now that I have a baby, I must admit, I am HORRIBLE at doing laundry...I still hate doing it and instead of just leaving my clean clothes somewhere, I just don't do it.  So, tonight when Tim was getting Addy ready for bed, who didn't have any pajamas?  That would be my baby girl...  It is okay though, her daddy improvised.  What do you think of Addy's pjs?

And trust me, this improvised outfit is not solely the result of a mommy hating laundry, but rather our dryer not actually drying clothes.  We do have some clean pjs in the dryer, but they are not dry after being in there for over an hour and a half.  So, don't think I am a completely lazy mommy, just somewhat lazy. :-)

Laughing...what a wonderful sound!

Addy has started laughing!!!  And I LOVE it...  She laughed for Tim yesterday and then today she was on a roll!  Her Grandpa Dennis really got her going and I was able to get a video.  Sorry for some of the shaking, but I was laughing myself.   There are two videos....I hope you enjoy both!






And nope, Addy didn't spit up on Dennis until after all of the videos were shot! :-)
