Vegas Baby

After a crazy day of travel on Saturday, which included the airlines losing Addy's car seat, we took it easy for the rest of the evening, ate at the condo, and stayed in for the night. We woke up on Sunday morning ready to explore Vegas.

Our first stop was to the pawn shop featured in the show Pawn Stars. Although there were come pretty cool things inside, everything was a little too expensive for us. Here is Addy with Grandma Nan and Grampy David in front of the store.

We exchanged our borrowed car seat for Addy's car seat, picked up the little girls and headed to the Strip. Here is a picture of Addy in M & M World.

She seems to like all the different colors of M & M's.

Leaving Maine

The week flew by much too fast. Before we knew it, we were heading back to Denver. We had an amazingly wonderful week! The only hard thing was that we were so far away from Mama Rox.

Here we are on the 10:00 boat heading to the mainland.

Here is Addy laying down in the airplane, sucking her thumb. We were lucky that we didn't have anyone else in our row, so we could really stretch out and get comfortable.

Trip to Maine

The weekend went by quickly. We enjoyed spending time with Michelle and eating yummy food made my Grandma Nan.

Here is Michelle and Eliza getting ready to leave. I just love the puppy carrier. I used something similar when carrying Addy through then airport.

Trip to Maine

After having her two month check up, Adelaide and I went to the airport to go to Maine for the week. One of the side effects of the shots is that children are often tired and Addy was no exception. She nursed for take off and landing, but slept the for rest of the 5 hour flight. It was nice holding her in my arms while she slept. We were lucky enough to have an empty seat right next to us, so we didn't feel too crowded. Our flight was delayed by about 2 hours and as a result, when we arrived in Boston we only had 1 1/2 hours to catch the last boat of the night. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive from Boston to Cousins Island and we would have missed the boat by about a half an hour. We ended up staying the night in a motel room in Portland and we woke up early to catch the first boat on Saturday morning.

Here is Addy wearing her lobster hat waiting for the first boat.

Grandma Nan held Addy for most of her first boat ride.

Here is Grampy David holding two of his favorite little guys.

Grandama Nan and Addy enjoy hanging out together.

This is where Addy took most of her naps, on the floor wrapped up in beautiful quilts made by Grandma Nan.

My best friend Michelle came over to spend the weekend with us on Chebeague. She brought her dog Eliza. The dogs got along well with each other and were not really bothered by the baby.

Here is Addy trying to ride Eliza. What a cute picture.

Here is Grampy David with both of the dogs. I can't believe how well they got along.

Grandma Nan's Birthday

Today was Grandma Nan's birthday. We had a wonderful day. Grandma Nan and I got all dressed up and went out to a fancy lunch with Adelaide, who slept in her car seat the entire time. After lunch we went to see the movie The Kids are All Right, and Addy spent most of her time eating during the movie.

After the movies, Vik, Amaya and Kanoa came over to spend some time with Grandma Nan before she had to leave for the airport. We are hoping that Grandma Nan will come back and visit soon.

A Busy Day

Today we ran some errands and went visiting.

Here is Adelaide sleeping in her car seat while we drove all over town to get things done.

We stopped by to meet Papa Scott while we were out.

When we got home Mama Rox wanted to see how her new Moby wrap worked. Adelaide seems pretty comfortable in it.

Mama Rox likes wearing Addy around.

Aunty TJ came by to visit us and to play with Addy's little piggies.

Addy likes to suck on Mama Rox's finger or thumb to settle down.

Mama Rox and Adelaide were so tired from all of the running around that they needed to take a little nap.

Coming Home

The day after we got home, Grandma Nan gave Addy a bath in the kitchen sink.

Grandma Nan is a pro and bathing babies and Adelaide enjoyed the experience.

Later that afternoon, Uncle Brett came over to meet Adelaide.
