Addison Is ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our sweet little girl turned one last Thursday! It's so hard to believe a year has flown past since she was born. We can't remember what life was like before Addie! My parents were up for the entire week and my siblings came up for her birthday party over the weekend. It was so great seeing everyone and I know both kids loved having everyone here!
Addie opened some presents from Auntie Em on her actual birthday. Check out these adorable butterfly wings she got!


We went out for dessert that night. It was goooood!!!!!!!!!!!

The birthday girl is ready for her party to begin!

Aunt Emily was at it again and did such an awesome job on the cake!!!! She never ceases to amaze me!
Thanks Auntie Em! I love it!!!

Emily even made her a little butterfly cake of her own. So cute!!

Jonathan's parents got the kids a combined birthday present--a new wagon! They love it!! I thought the picture above was so funny! Luke really wanted to help daddy put it together. :)

You can't have a party without presents, cake, and lots of cousins!

Addie loved her tent with a tunnel from Meemaw and Papaw!

My sweet baby girl and I after church. I love her dress!

She was so glad Uncle Jacob got to come!

At one year old Addison:
*can say dada, uh-oh, hi, and hey. She is also very fluent in her own language which she is constantly jabbering in! :)
*pulls herself up and can stand alone for a couple seconds. She hasn't shown any real interest in walking yet.
*is such a daddy's girl!
*adores her big brother. They are now starting to really play together (and fight together!) and she loves to copy him.
*loves clapping her hands.
*gives out sweet (but slobbery!) kisses.
*has recently taken an interest in books. She loves them!
*has three cute teeth--two on bottom and one on top.
*has been weaned for about a month now. She's drinking whole milk and eats all her meals with us. I love it when babies join the rest of the family's meal schedule! :)
*goes to bed between 7:30 and 8 with her brother and usually is up before he is (around 7 or 7:30). She still takes two naps a day that range from 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

We love you Addison Marie! Happy 1st Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday! She looks like such a happy little girl.

I have to admit I am incredibly jealous of her sleeping schedule! Our little guy STILL isn't sleeping through the night. He has about two and a half weeks until he turns one, maybe he'll do in by then :) Here's hopin'!

My goodness! She can't be one already! It's too soon...she was just born...yesterday...wasn't it? Well...Happy Birthday Addison (a little late)...hopefully we'll get to meet before you are 10! I really think your mommy needed to add visiting her good friend Ali to her list of things to do before she is 30...just saying :) Take care all and we'll chat later!
