Ready to launch

So this paw goes there...

Nothing to it.

Naps are for mommies

Pa paw

Mmmmmm, green paste

You call this service?

Breakfast Finally

Addy just turned 5 months, and is loving her first taste of rice cereal.

Our Little Chef

Addy's already learning the art of cooking with Mom and Dad. So far she's learned cup cakes and salad. This afternoon we're going to try red beans and rice!

Haloween

I dressed up like an LSU Tiger, and had fun meeting my cousin Alex. Alex and I got so excited to see another baby!

Daddy's B'day Lunch

I enjoyed visiting with my Maw Maw and Aunt's at Shady's to celebrate Daddy's Birthday. (He turned 30!!)

Hangin' Out at Paw Paw's for the LSU game

Addy's First Beach Trip

We took Addy to Destin for Labor Day. It was too cold for her to swim, but she did dip her toes in and really enjoyed sitting by the waves.

Lookin' Around

I'm getting more head control and starting to reach out for toys.

Out Adventuring

Addy's first time walking her pups. We walked to Sonic and got slushes.

Addy's first best friend

She loves her seahorse and watches him everytime it's time to change her diaper.

I can't believe Addy's already a month old!

First Sponge Bath (outside the hospital at least)

Addy can have her first real bath in the next few days once her cord falls off.

Daddy shows Addy her Room

Heading Home

Addy's first time in the car. It felt really weird to leave the hospital after being there the past couple days. Time really runs together there!

Going Home

Addy in her dress I made for her.

Already Rotten

Our second morning in the hospital. I woke up famished and attacked the fruit basket Ryan and Danielle brought the night before! Thanks again!

And Baby Makes Three

Adalyn Rose makes her debut at 6:19pm on 6-25-09

Weighing in at 8 lbs 13 oz. No wonder my ribs got so bruised!

It's Time!

5:30am time to go to the hospital after only an hour of sleep

The Night Before the Big Day

We realized around midnight that we didn't have any belly pics. Oops!

Thanks Girls for my Baby Shower!

Showered with Love

Thanks Aunt Dani for all the hard work!

Thank you everyone for the wonderful shower!

Revealing Sonogram

Pause the music player to the right of the page before playing video.

miracle snow

Ashley woke me up this morning very excited to see snow in Metaire. I told her she that she was acting more excited than on the morning we got the little "+." She said, "Well, this (the snow) doesn't happen very often!"

Our first sonogram

This was taken on November 4th at about 6weeks. She/He is 0.49cm long or 0.2in, about this long<-->. The heartbeat was 121bpm.
