Addison's 8th month

Our "baby" girl is now 8-months old. Addison is starting to play some with Aubrey or by herself for short periods of time. She is constantly on the move - - crawling, standing, cruising, and even trying to walk. We noticed her first two teeth on her birthday. She said her first word, "Ma-ma," a few days after her birthday. She doesn't say it directly to me, but rather when she's calling for me or trying to chase me down. We are so incredibly blessed to have two, awesome little girls.

This is how Addison greets us almost every morning....with an excited smile and her hair standing straight up on top of her head (and no matter what I do, her hair stays like this all the time).


Addison and Aubrey are playing dress-up together.

Here's our birthday princess.


Addison has learned to clap. Sometimes, she even claps in the middle of the night.

This is Addison's idea of playing "tea party" with Aubrey. She sees how many dishes she can hold and gnaw on at one time.


Addison wants to walk like her big sister (sooooooo much earlier than Aubrey did). She can actually walk pretty well just holding onto one of our fingers.

This is the only picture I've been able to get so far of her first two teeth.

Mommy and her girls like to read books together in the big bed.

Addison has discovered the interesting sound she can make when she pats/slaps the top of Daddy's head.
