4th of July

What a great 4th we had...we had a little get together at our house with family and a few friends. We started the night off by having dinner and sitting around talking. Then the kids wanted to do sparklers and snaps while it was still light. A little before dark Dano & Josh got things ready to give us a firework show. Addy and I got a blanket and sat on the front lawn, the first one they let off was a screaming one and oh boy she didn't like that. I had Dano light a couple more off for Addy then I was going to take her to bed, but she wasn't having that either. She could hear all the kids so she still wanted to be outside. I took her back outside to try it again, this time she was scared at first but the more that went off the better she was. Soon she was sitting on my lap enjoying the show.

A little update about Addison

My baby girl is 8 MONTHS, before to much longer I'm going to be planning her first birthday party. But she is getting so BIG and of course is so darn CUTE!!! I LOVE every minute we have with her. She is up to about 18lbs now, she is getting herself all around the house by doing her little WORM CRAWL (she's still not using her knees) and she loves to hold on to your fingers and walk. Dano had to step into the other room and when he came out he got a BIG SURPRISE Addy was CLIMBING the stairs. So yes she loves the stairs now. She has 6 TEETH now and can BITE really hard!! Her first word was DAD, but she had learned MOMMA and occasionally we can get her so say GRANDPA. She LOVES making motorcycle noises and waving hi or bye. Addy thinks she is getting to BIG to eat baby food so she WILL NOT eat it. Her favorite food now are CHEETOS and CHERIOS. Addy LOVES Bosley (but Bos don't have love for her) She HATES getting her diaper changed and getting dressed it's a FIGHT every time. Her favorite cartoon is MICKEY MOUSE CLUBHOUSE!! Here's just a few pictures of us and our precious daughter.

Yuba

I love camping out to Yuba, I was more excitied this time cause I was curious how Addy would do on the boat and playing in the lake. She did really good on the boat wasn't so happy about the life jacket but after a minute she got use to it. I think she enjoyed the ride watching her dad and Tyler do some surfing then I think she got so relaxed that she was out. The lake was a different story, Dano took her out a ways and put her in her floaty she hated that, so we set her down on the shore she enjoyed it for a few but then wanted back up. I think the water was a little to cold.

Father's Day

We had a pretty busy fathers day weekend. We went camping out to 2 rock then came home on Sunday and had a BBQ with my family and Mike's family then we went swimming and played on the slip and slide.

Birthday Bash!!

For Cameron's birthday Mindy rented a big jumping toy for all the little kids, and boy did they love it even the bigger kids!!!
