New Quilt

Grandma Nan sent Mama Rox a new quilt that she made. Mama Rox loves the quilt and so does Addy.

Laughing Addy

After an explosive diaper, Addy got a bath and Mama Rox started playing with her on her bed. This is the first couple of days of real laughter from Adelaide and we just wanted you to hear her joyful sounds.

Going Out

This evening was the first time Roxanne and I had an evening event that our beautiful daughter was not exactly welcome. It was a work party for Rox's co-worker who got a position at Headquarters. We brought the baby to Grandma Sandy and Papa Scott's house for the evening. When we dropped her off, I only cried a little. She was happy from about 5:30 pm when we left her, until about 8:30 pm when we call to see how everything was going. Addy got a little bit angry that we weren't there for our bedtime routine. She fell asleep and calmed down until we called again on our way home. I could hear her crying in the background and I cried too. We couldn't drive fast enough to get her. By the time we arrived, she was sitting in Papa Scott's lap just as fine as she could be. We will have another opportunity to go out without her in a couple of weeks for Rox's annual Holiday Party. Hopefully, will have a better time.

Here is a picture of Rox and Addy just before we went out. The dress Addy is wearing is a Sturgis Bike Rally dress given to her by Aunty TJ and Rick.

Rox and Addy look good together in their biker shirts.

She looks excited to spend time with Papa Scott and Grandma Sandy.

Week 16

Visiting Grandma Sandy & Papa Scott

As has become our weekly ritual, we went to Grandma Sandy and Papa Scott's house on Saturday. This week Aunty TJ was there to visit with us as well. We normally go over in the later afternoon and stay for dinner, but this week we decided to go over early and have lunch. We were hoping that Addy would be awake and happy longer if we went over earlier, but all that happened is that she needed a nap. So we ate dinner while Adelaide napped on the living room floor.

Here is Papa Scott and Addy.

When Addy woke up from her nap, Aunty TJ was very excited to play with her...

And give her kisses.

Hanging with Aunty Cole

I had the day off on Friday because it was parent/teacher conference day and I no longer have to deal with that. I was very excited to spend the day hanging out with my daughter and we decided to go downtown to visit Aunty Cole. We first stopped by Bliss Salon to bring Aunty Viki some lunch. After that we went to the computer store to get the computer fixed again. We ended up hanging out at my favorite coffee shop, tHERe coffee bar and lounge.

Here is Addy and Aunty Cole outside at Bliss waiting for Viki.

This is upstairs at tHERe. I love Aunty Cole's new hair cut, she looks like a different person.
