Uncle Mike Turns the Big 5-0!

Last weekend we celebrated my uncle's 50th birthday. He thought we were all going to eat but little did he know we had been preparing for his party all day! He was so surprised! Here are a few pics from the party.

Almost 3 months old! I can't believe it!

Reading one of his many hilarious cards - looks pretty good for 50, huh? Sorry ladies, he's taken!




Aunt Kristie successfully getting Addison to finish her bottle - thanks!

Aunt Jane with her sweetie

Mike and Whitney

These are a couple randoms - I love this one because this is what I see when she wakes up - so adorable - I wish I had a video of all the stretching that goes on!


Zach and I went to Asheville for a quick trip (4 year anniversary). We had lots of fun and I survived our first night away from the baby :)

Picsee Studios and Mango Tree Frames

My friend Stephanie made us these fabulous frames for our nursery and we finally got our pictures matted and placed perfectly. I LOVE THEM! BIG thanks to Picsee studios and Stephanie (Mango Tree Frames).

Out and about in May

I am finally updating the blog! We have been so busy I have not had any time to post pictures...so here we go! These are a few from the month of May - Miss Addison is growing SO fast! She is finally completely our of her newborn clothes and working on moving out of her 0-3 mo things...it almost makes me want to cry that she's getting bigger so fast...I just want her to stay little. We are having more fun with her each day - she is smiling and "talking" like crazy - I just love it! I have been back at work now for about two weeks and it's actually going better than I expected. She seems to do very well with her sweet babysitter - Elizabeth - and I feel very comfortable with her there. I think that has made work a little easier. Enjoy the pics!

Getting ready for ANOTHER ride in the car - mommy never lets me stay home very long!

She LOVES her playgym - she just smiles and giggles the whole time

This is her daily nap position - on the tummy with her little bootie in the air. OK, for all the "SIDS nazis" out there, I check on her every few minutes while she's on her tummy and she really sleeps 100 times better like this!

Our first Mother's Day - I was overwhelmed with emotions this day - I just feel so lucky to have her in my life!!

Ashley with the girls - Addison and Ensley

We had some friends over for a belated "Cinco de Mayo" party - Zach's favorite holiday of the year! I love it b/c it's one more excuse to taste his delicious baked chicken nachos..YUM!

Cutie pie in her dad's hat - he loves this one!

Brady has done so well with Addison - he LOVES to lick her so we have to watch him - here's him getting a little foot action :) I think she like how his fur feels on her little feet!

He just gave her a big sloppy one before I could catch him!

Pals for life...just wait till she can get hold of those ears!

We met Aunt Whitney at the outlets one day before I went back to work (oh, those were the days!) and had dinner at the Apple Barn - no wonder I can't lose these pregnancy pounds!
