Cereal and Shrills!

Addison turned 5 months old yesterday. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. My little baby is not as little as I sometimes still think she is. She is growing so quickly. Every time I turn around, she has chubbier cheeks, longer legs, is getting more hair, and is doing something new. I had to put away her three month clothes because her poor little piggies couldn't squeeze into her footie jammies any longer. Sad day!

At the same time, she is getting to be so much more fun! Together, we have recently discovered the joy of rice cereal. Now, she wants so badly to eat anything and everything that we are, and gives me the "Please, Mom..." face that is so hard to resist. We still sing and play, but now she is an active participant. She has found her own little high pitched voice, and is rarely quiet any more.

She is so into books, and will sit on my lap all morning, looking at all of the pictures, tapping all of the pages with her chubby, little fingers. She loves to sit with her Daddy while he plays video games. Although, the object of her game while she is with him, is to successfully grab the X-Box controller, and get it in her mouth.

I was talking to Travis yesterday as I was getting ready for bed, and he was eating his "lunch", (CRAZY SCHEDULES), about how much our lives have changed in 5 short months. Almost nothing is the same. We live in a new house, with a new ward, we have new friends, Travis has a new job, I no longer have my job, our alarm clock, the thing that used to dictate our lives completely, is now collecting dust, but most of all we have a sweet little baby that has enriched our lives like I never thought possible! Addison, We Love You!
