Lots of stuff

Addie got her first official haircut a few weeks ago. She sat so nicely in Aunt Vickie's chair!! Here are a few pics of the momentous event. Henry has started to eat some solid foods. Here's a pic documenting his first attempt at cereal.

Lots of smiles :)

Talking up a storm

Addie is coming up with new words every day. Who knows where they come from. Some recent ones:

pictures
mail
clock
Dora
diaper
jammies
blanket
pillow

We also all have names now. Addie has known Nevada's name (Joe) for a long time, but Murphy had remained "dog". Poor guy. She did call him Sam every once and a while (his 2nd name, our pets seem to always have 2 names...), but he is now formally known as "Mooshy". After a cold winter, he probably is a little mooshy - aren't we all?

Henry is "Hengy"
Dad is "Boss" (she can't seem to say Rs)
I am Ann
And she is ADDIE! She always says her own name with such enthusiasm!
