All within a month

All within a Month’s time we have tons of birthdays and holidays in our family!

To start off our busy month of May was Avery’s birthday! Which isn’t in May but very close to it! We had a great 1st party for him! He enjoyed himself like always! He was so adorable! I just cant believe that my baby is already one!

     

On May 6th is my mother’s birthday!

 

ALSO…….

on May 6th is our wedding anniversary! This year we will be celebrating our 4th anniversary being married! It feels so much longer than just four years!

 

On May 9th is Mothers’ Day! I’m so glad to be a mother to wonderful kids. They are all my heart and soul!

 

May 17th I will be turning 25 years old! I am happy but sad at the same time. The older I get, the older my kids are getting.  Adam has a whole birthday date night planned for us the Saturday before my birthday! I’m excited and can’t wait.

 

After my birthday is my little cousin/ Godchild’s birthday! She will be 12! Then my brother in law. Justin will have his 22nd birthday!

 

On MAY 28TH Miss Addison Jeanne will be the B-I-G 3! She is growing up so fast and is learning more “clever” things every day! May 30th she is having a Disney Princess Party with family and friends!

 

And Memorial Day is May 31st and that is the end of our busy May! Now we can relax for a little while.

our house lately

Since our last posting, we have just been taking it easy! Everyone is doing great!

Addison is potty trained but has been having more accidents lately. She loves being in her big girl panties.  Addison is helping a lot more with Avery. We took her to see Toy Story 1 & 2 in 3D on Saturday. We had a great time, just the 3 of us. Addison is starting to talk more and more every day. She is so cute.

Avery is already 5 months old and is now crawling, sitting up, and pulling up.  He is eating applesauce, pears, and bananas. Like most boys…he loves to eat. He went to the doctor’s office today and he is now 13lbs and 2oz. He is getting bigger by the day, I can’t believe how big and how fast he is growing. It’s unbelievable.

Adam recently received the MICROSOFT MVP award. This award is very rare and is hard to get. Adam is 1 in 1000 people to get this award in the WORLD! We are so proud of our nerd! lol! 

I have been busy with the kids. I haven’t really wanted to get out much. We have been going to playgroup twice a week and that’s about it. I’m in love the LMN( LIFETIME MOVIE NETWORK) That is really the only  “ME” time that I have been getting. I sooooo need/want some “ME” time. I have been planning my dad’s surprised 50th party.

 

But that’s all the scoop at our house.  I just haven’t found the time to really blog. Every min I get to myself, I take it. I don’t get very many.  Will post some pics later!

the last few days have been very relaxing

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday pretty much were just relaxing/lazy days. We really didn’t do much but stick around the house, besides going grocery shopping.

Potty training

Monday we started potty training (hardcore) and it really didn’t go well. On a positive note Addison learned how to take  her panties on and off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Addison getting sick

Monday afternoon Addison woke up from an afternoon nap , with a very high fever (102.5). I called Addison’s doctor because I was afraid she had Flu.  Her doctor was also very concerned because of the potential ramifications of Addison having Flu around Avery. Luckily the fever dropped and with that the likelihood that she has the Flu.

Tuesday, Sept. 22, 2009- Adam’s 27th Birthday

Doctor visit

The kids went to the doctor today. Addison was diagnosed with a bug and the Flu culture test was negative!!!!.  Addison is 27lb and 37in. The doctor estimates that both Avery and Addison will be approximately 5 ft. 10 in. Avery had to get his 4 month shots and regular check up. Avery is 12 lbs and 24 in long! The doctor said we can now give Avery stage one fruit.

 

Adam’s Birthday

Today is Adam’s 27th Birthday! Happy Birthday my love! He stayed home today to help with the kids, just in case Addison had the flu. I hope he had a great day with us. Addison and I baked cookies for him and  sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Addison told her daddy “Happy Birthday Daddy” crystal clear and it made me want to cry. We had Adam a Birthday dinner filled with lots of love.

(I felt real bad that this was the 2nd year in a row that Adam had to stay home from work on his Birthday due to one of just being sick. Last year I was in the hospital on his birthday and now Addison was sick….next year we will make it up to him)

Addison pee-pee’d in the potty

Today we really focused on potty training. I brought Addison to the potty every 30 minutes and still NOTHING! She did manage to pee on our floor 3 times though. After the third time of peeing on the floor, I decided to take her doctor’s advice and trick her. I put Addison down for a nap on her nap pad and told her not to pee-pee in them or she has to sit in the wet panties. She went to sleep and woke up dry. I  ran and put her on the potty as soon as she woke up and she pee-pee’d !!!! She was so happy and surprised. So in return she got a sucker and a mark on her chart! GOOD GIRL ADDISON!!!!!
