Catch up...

Life has been busy so I'll just give a re-cap of the last 2-3 weeks. Nathan & I celebrated 6 years on the 10th of June. Mom watched the kiddo's while we went to dinner- came back and of course both kids were still awake and Jackson was still lacking a bath... one word- n-a-n-a. Bob is recovery very well and has already lost over 30lbs. It was such a life change for him- amazing. Heather, Mom & I went to Women of Faith in St. Louis this past weekend and it was my first overnight (28 hours) without Addison. I was dreading being away from her but it was such an amazing event. Everyone did great! We spent the most part of Father's Day outside playing. In the late afternoon we joined the Figureiredo's and Nana & Papa at their Beach Club and had a fantastic time. Jackson surprised us all and went down the HUGE waterslide all by himself (w/ a lifeguard at the bottom to catch). He first went down with Nathan and had fun but after seeing Ashton go down with ease by himself he decided he wanted to go by himself (totally NOT Jackson). On the way down (around corners and going fairly fast) he flipped around and looked like he was getting very scared. I hurried down after him thinking he would be screaming and instead he was laughing and running towards the steps to go back up. My baby is growing up!!! Addison is just the happiest, most content child I have ever seen. She's so sweet and is just full of smiles and personality. She is rolling back & forth (well, goes to her back only her her crib) and always wants to be on her tummy when you put her on her back. And when she is on her tummy she is trying with all her might to GO. She wants to make headway. I'm going to be chasing 2 children very, very soon. The other day at Auntie's house I laid her on the couch in the crevice of the 2 cushions and she sat herself all the way up- like a sit up! She is so strong. Addison & I leave for Orlando (take 2) on Saturday. She is very excited to meet her best friend, Riley Grace.
