Trip to the Zoo

Educating and Indoctri(Mac)nating

I can feed myself, thanks!

Reading chair

We got back from a quick trip to the East coast and picked up a little chair for Addison to read in. Little girl LOVES it. It takes a pretty strong incentive to get her out.

Kisses for all

Davy Family Vacation

Look what I can do now!

Here are a few short videos that show the little doll's personality, mental acuity and physical agility.

Personality: Kid loves cheese. Like, would eat pounds of it a day if given the choice. The kid is just so funny.


Physical Abilities: Oh, so close to walking.


Mental Acuity: She's quite adept at drumming already.


and she reads us books, too!

Taking a little walk

Photo blast

Green Beans, please!

Balloons!

Her first encounter with balloons:

The weekend

Some recent photos.

Addie-isms

Some of her noises and mannerisms that make me chuckle.

Easter with Addie

The first five photos aren't Easter, but she's sporting a new outfit and her two new teeth bringing the total to six. The rest are in her new Easter dress. The last photo, she leaning in for a kiss. This is her newly acquired skill this week. You say kiss, and she leans in for a smooch of the open mouth variety-though she is getting better at giving a lips together kiss.

The Game

A fun game with a dubious ending.

Video corrected

I accidentally posted the wrong video earlier. I edited it and put the new one up. Sorry. ben

A new found freedom

We'll officially induct Addison into the League of Crawlers. Look out now.

Crawling?

I know the method borders on cruel. Addison, forgive us.

Musical prodigy?

Pretty yellow dress

Playing with blocks

A few randoms

She's increasingly mobile...for some reason, more so on the couch than on the floor. She only really crawls over us on the couch, but won't when she's on the floor. Notice she's headed for the vino. We'll have to keep an eye on this one!Here's a couple photos of her getting a bath from Grandma Davy in the sink on a recent visit to Norfolk.

She also had some fun with Baxter. She would put out her had for him to lick and then pull it away laughing.

She standeth

She's 9 months old!

Here are some of the 9 month photos our good friend Renee Welstead took with Crystal and Addison a week and a half ago on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.

Tito Jesse makes me laugh!

Here, her uncle was really making her laugh at Christmas-sorry it's so dark, but the laugh is great:

Child DOES NOT like chicken!!
