Random corn

Two random corn stalks grew up in our front "garden" (well mess of weeds this year). The resultant corn was by all means mutant.

On the move

Addison first starting pushing toys around on August 8. She was so proud of herself. Just watch.

Happy 6th Anniversary!!

For our anniversary weekend - we power washed the house and porch. Well, at least in the afternoon. Aunt Christine watched Addison in the evening while we watched the final Harry Potter (boo) on the big screen and enjoyed a fantastic meal from Bridget's steak house.

Pirate ship

The war on the high seas was a close battle. In the end, we're still not sure who was the victor. What a great Sunday on the water.

In Pop's pool

We spent many hours in the pool this summer - well in June and July. August was mostly a wash-out for pool days this year. Addison loves the water!

First trip to OCMD

Addison's first trip to the shore was July 22, 2011. We visited the first beach that Heather had ever been too - Ocean City, MD. We spent the weekend with Chris, Cora, Cameron, and Kayleigh. The heat index was over 100 degrees all weekend! Addison was medicated round the clock for fevers that spiked as high as 104.6. Thank God Chris was there or else we would have spent an entire day in the ER most likely! We ate crabs, swam in the ocean (even Chris and Cora were in the water), played mini-golf, walked the boards, and played crab with the kids in the pool. It was a fantastic trip! (And Happy Birthday to Cameron!!)

Thankful for sunscreen.

Patiently watching the mini-golf game

Lounging

Our strawberry (or watermelon - the jury's out...)

Loved the kids

Best view in the place

Water sure felt great!

Catch Up

So sorry everyone for the lack of photos since Easter weekend. Addison is growing up so fast! She is crawling, sitting up, pulling up, and just starting to cruise along the furniture. Of course, Greg prefers to call this movement "traversing". She went to Ocean City, MD for the first time last weekend and had a blast staying up until 1130 on the boardwalk. It is so fun to watch her change and grow. Well - here come the photos!

Easter weekend

We had a great Easter celebration with the Murphy family! Addison was handled and passed around like a doll baby and she loved every minute of it! She was the hit of the event we'd say.

7 months

Addison was a hit in church this morning. She was making eyes at everyone and throwing her toys down onto the pew. She is quite proficient now at rolling and is able to traverse the floor without much difficulty. She is growing up so fast!
