Baby Giggles!!

Two teeth and 18 to go!

Yeah! Addison finally cut her first two teeth on April 8th, just shy of 5 months. She has been working on them for a month.

Goon, PLEASE!

We got season passes to Lagoon from my parents. We have gone twice already and Parker loves it. His favorite is Puff and the cars. His least favorite was the LadyBugs but he did all the rides that he was big enough for and that is the only one that scared him. I think that we will spend most of our summer there. Thanks Papa and Grandma.

Parker was a bid helper when he fed Addison her cereal. When she was all done he thought that she looked like Santa (red clothes and white stuff the her face).

Animals, Animals, and more Animals

The three of us spend one of the first warm days at Hogle Zoo with our friends. Addison was awake long enough to ride the train and eat. Parker favorite was the giraffes, he talked about them for days.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Mickey and Minnie's Magical Adventure

We took Parker to see MICKEY MOUSE and he was more excited to see the silly Jazz car. I had to drag him away from the car at the start of the show, at intermission, and when we were leaving. But as long as the car wasn't around he loved Mickey and Minnie.

We have decided thar Baby Addison is narcoleptic. She will be wide awake playing, looking around and then gone. She has been found sleeping in the strangest conditions.

Oh, how sweet are little girls. We are in so much trouble with this one. Not only is she beautiful but she is all girl. Even her cry is girlie. It doesn't help that she is already boy crazy. Luckily, right now, she only gets a twinkle in her eye for daddy and big brother. She is starting to roll over and play with things. Is is so fun to watch her try to play and figure things out. I love having a baby in the house again.

How could we take a picture without Mickey Mouse. He has been Parker's favorite for literally years. Parker will be three in May and is so much fun. He is in the beginning stages of being potty trained. I almost gave up over the weekend but he insisted on wearing underwear when I tried to put a diaper on him. We have gone two days without any accidents. It is very funny, I have sat him on the potty a few times when he has not had to go and one time he told me that his peepee was broken and that he needed a new one. We love kids!

Jamey and I just celebrated our 5th Anniversary. It is amazing how our lives have changed in five short years. We have moved 4 times and have had several different jobs. The biggest change is that we have had two kids! Our family could not be any happier. Enjoy every minute of everyday because things change so quickly.

It is amazing how time can fly by. It feels like it was just yesturday that I was complaining about still being pregnant and now Addison is three months old and Parker is almost three. I know that I am a bit prejudice but I think that I have the cutest kids ever. They are so sweet.

Santa made a surprise visit to Great Grandma's house a few days before Christmas. I thought that Parker's eyes were going to pop out when the special visitor walked in. He got to ring Santa's bells and sit on his lap for a story. He then told Santa that he wanted a Mickey Mouse game and that Addison wanted a doll.

This is Addison on her blessing day. She was given the name Addison Chandler (yes, no middle name) by her daddy on Nov. 23rd. My mom made the dress and blanket for her and she looked beautiful.

Everytime Parker holds his "lil' sis" he needs me to take a picture. We have lots of pictures of him holding her and laying by her and anything else that he does with her.

From the day Addison was born Parker has wanted to be where she is. And since she spends most of her play time on her back on the floor that is where Parker is too. I am still waiting for the fascination to wear off.

This is me and Addison in the hospital the day after she was born. She entered this world weighing 6 lbs. 14 oz. and 19 inches long. She has changed our world for the better.

This is Parker Trick or Treating. Even though I was 8 1/2 months pregnant, taking him around was very fun. He would tell the people thank you and Happy Halloween, then he would look at me and say "next house". He loved it. We decided to have him be a toad for Halloween because my dad calls him a toad all the time. When people would ask Parker what his name was he would say that he was Papa's Toad. He loves his Grandpa.

This is our happy little girl. She spends most of her time sleeping and eating but when she is not doing those things she is really happy and we love her smile.

My two boys were enjoying the winter weather riding my old four wheeler. Jamey was sick of the snow hitting his eyes so he decided to put his snowboarding goggles on. Parker then needed his "way cool" Mickey Mouse sunglasses. Father like son. No better way to spend a winter afternoon.

We are here!

I have been being harrassed for months to create a blog. I have now decided that it is time. I have two sweet kids and lots of friends and family that do not get to see them very often. This is the best way I could thing of that everyone can get to know Parker and Addison and see all the cute things that they do. I hope that you enjoy and will keep us updated on your lives as well.
