Boogies or not?

Addyson has starting blowing her nose like she has boogies in it. She does it at the most random of times. I love how her face scrunches up. She is definitely a character.

First Boo Boo

Addyson was playing on the floor while Chris and I were getting things together for a barbecue. Next thing we know Addyson is screaming and I come over to get her and she had fallen on her rocking elephant. She fell from a sitting position so it wasn't that far but she happened to hit the legs, which are wood, with her head. She was pretty tough about it. She stopped crying as soon as I picked her up. Luckily it didn't swell and she just had a line down her forehead the next day.

9 Months

Addyson is now 9 months. Its crazy how fast time flies! She can now clap her hands and is getting real close to crawling. Her favorite things to play with are the laundry baskets, her monkey, and anything she knows that she shouldn't have. At her well check she weighed in at 19 lbs 4 oz (75%) and is 28 inches long (75%). There is never a dull moment when she is awake. She has definitely become a screamer. 

She loves to Rock

Our good friend Terry got this elephant for our children while we were still living in Wyoming. I couldn't wait for our children to play with it. And lucky for us Addyson LOVES it. I put her on it right before bath time and she started rocking it by herself.

Chalk Art Festival

 Every year they close down a whole block in downtown Denver for the Chalk Art Festival. All of the pics below are made out of chalk. There were so many people, but it was still a lot of fun. And really cool to see.

 Thats a lot of chalk.

The Joker. I know it is hard to tell.

 It was so cool that even the Smurfs showed up.

Addyson was so good and wore her hat the whole time. It was pretty warm but nice to get out and see some neat artwork. Thanks Beutlers for inviting us!

Trying to Move

Addyson is trying to crawl. She gets up like this and rocks for a little bit. Then she sprawls out and rolls over so its time to start baby proofing.

I had to run some errands and she fell asleep on the way home. She didn't stay asleep for very long but she still looked really cute so I couldn't resist taking her picture.
