I am the Frito Bandito!!

She almost looks like one of the bad guys from an old cowboy movie with the 'stache, doesn't she??

Ooooooohhh!! I love fruit bars!!

I'm gettin' some big teef!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Ride 'em cowgirl!

Look at me! I'm a big girl!!

Blizzard '09

It seemed like such a good winter, until we got 25" of the white stuff dumped on us! The trip out to the sitter's to pick up Addie usually takes me 5 minutes each way. I left the house at 3pm to get her, and got back home at 4:35. I hadn't seen snow like this since I left Wisconsin. WOW!

Christmas #3

With all the action from the big kids, Addie was best kept out of harms way. Thanks Auntie Erica!

Christmas #2

This was Christmas at our house. Santa must really love babies. That's all I'm going to say.

10 Months Old!!

Addie is ten months old today!! Check back for pictures this weekend!

Christmas #1

Today was Christmas with Papa Bob and Co. We all had a good time, the kids all played well together, Papa got to spend time with the newest grand kids, and Aunt Nat made some killer lasagna. Yummy! Here is some of Addie's take. Thanks Papa and Mona!

8 month check-up

Adelaide went in for her 8 month check-up yesterday. 16.2 lbs (23rd percentile) 27 1/4 inches tall (50th percentile) and her head was 44cm (63rd percentile). What a little bean, huh?

Papa Bob, we found you a payphone at Target

The bad news is you will have to drive to South Bend to use it. I almost ran into it with the cart, and when I saw it, you were the first person I thought of. Courtney asked me why I was taking a picture of a payphone, now we know.

Only nine more days.

Can you believe it's Christmas time already? Here is the pic we took for our Christmas card this year, in case you're not getting one

The hills are alive.......

Grandma Mona passed along a Target gift card last time we visited at the shop, check out what Addie got! The funniest part is that it plays bad Muzak versions of The Final Countdown by Europe, some bad song by the Dixie Chicks and a random Police song. As long as she likes it, right?

Mischief managed.

Hurricane Adelaide leaves a path of destruction in her wake.

I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

Nobody puts baby in the corner.

Go Pack!!

The unexpected 16 hours we spent in a car in Wisconsin last weekend wasn't a complete fiasco. Addie got some cool new Packers duds out of the trip on a midnight run to Target for baby food!

First thanksgiving

A few shots from Adelaide's first Thanksgiving.

Where's my turkey, huh?

Turkey coma!

Ready for a big girl bed??

Last month we went to Indy for Courtney's foreign language conference. Addie fell asleep on our bed, so I made sure she couldn't go too far. Do you think a king size is too big?? At least she has room to roam.
