Back Home

Addison & I have returned from Florida and are catching up on our sleep. We had a fabulous trip. Addison just loved her best friend, Riley and the feeling was almost mutual. Addison is a little aggressive- and Riley wasn't quite ready for it. The 3 months difference is quite a bit! Within the first few minutes of meeting Addison was sucking on Riley's face. We ventured the beach the first day and the girls loved the water (not so much the sand, heat and sun, though). We stayed an hour and packed it up and went home. The next days were spent mostly shopping. We literally shopped till the poor girls dropped. The time flew by but Addison was ready to get home and see her brother and daddy... and get back on a sleep schedule. Brother Jackson was VERY happy to see both Mommy & Addison. I'm not sure when Jackson slept- he had a whole list of things that him & Gram did each day and I'm not sure a nap was part of the list. She bought a slip n' slide and they played on that, they went to the pool, mall, pet store and I'm sure hit Chuckie Cheese... Addison had her very first solid food today. We started a little later than we did with Jackson. She is over 5 months old but I'm glad I waited. She did great! Very messy and she is old enough to grab the spoon so this should be an adventure. Jackson begged to give her a bite... I was nervous but he actually did great. She just loves him so she would open her mouth for him and he put the spoon in and then dropped it! My BIG little helper! That's it for us right now... looking forward to taking Jackson back to Florida- he is the perfect age to enjoy it all!
