A little boy again

Jacob got his 2nd haircut - much more difficult than the first time!!




Rub a dub dub, 2 kids in a tub

The other night Jacob asked "Addison take bath with me"

So, we tried it. It actually worked out very well.

Jacob & Addison both loved it. They splashed each other.




The day wouldn't be complete without Jacob driving his racecar across Addison's head.

Jacob - all smiles

Almost There!!

Addison tries so hard to crawl.
Easter night, she got up on all fours and somehow crawls backwards.
It's really funny - so I'm sure it will be sometime this week that she actually figures out how to go forward (and I'm going to be in NO for a conference - I really hope I don't miss it!!)
I will try to post the video later, but here's a picture


Dying Easter Eggs



We went to Aunt Karrie & Sophia's house on Wednesday before Easter to dye eggs.

Update - sorry I'm behind

Sorry, I'm so behind on posts.
I will get everything updated soon.
But, I wanted to post this picture now - this is Jacob & Addison's school picture.
Jacob had fallen the day before and had a big boo-boo on his chin.

Cade & Ella are baptized

On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, Cade & Ella were baptized at St Mary's Church in Mobile, AL. I have the honor of being Cade's godmother.


Disney on Ice

A few weeks ago, we went to Gulfport, MS to see Disney (Princesses) on Ice.
It was a lot of fun and Jacob & Sophia loved it.



Nonna, Karrie, Sophia, Melynda, Jacob, Addison, & I went to the show.

Earn Cash Back on Ebay Purchases

Okay, I sent out an email regarding this, but nobody has signed up yet.
This isn't a scam, there's no catch.
If you shop online (and I KNOW you do), then you can earn cash back just by signing up with this website. Seriously, go read the "what's the catch" section.
I signed up and earned $1 back on a flight reservation I made that day (with travelocity). It's not a whole lot but it's better to get back some rather than nothing.
There are a lot of great retailers - mainly EBAY!!!
Register by clicking on this link or copying and pasting in your address field.
And everytime you buy, I receive a cash back as well.
Seriously, you have nothing to lose - oh except free money!!

Thanksgiving

We hope everyone had a great thanksgiving.
We are so thankful for our friends and family and especially our 2 wonderful children,
Jacob & Addison

I made a dress for Addison for Thanksgiving day. My first time to applique AND I did it by hand.

Halloween 2007

Yes, I have some catching up to do....

We went to Tony & Leah's house for trick or treating again this year.
Jacob was really excited about going from house to house.
But he didn't want to knock, he just went to the door and tried to open it.
We only went to about 4 houses with him and that was enough.

Fall Festival

Jacob, Addison, Aunt Melynda, & I went to St. Mary's Fall Festival.

It was fun - of course, the only thing Jacob was really interested in was the train. So, we ended up riding that about 20 times.
He also had a lizard painted on his arm and played a few games.
Oh - and Addison slept the entire time, so I didn't even get any pictures of her at the festival.
