Get ready to smile :-)

Addi gets tickled.

Addi roled over!

Yes, a milestone: Addi roled over!
We're so proud!

Addi's third month

During Addi's third month, she learned a lot!

She learned to enjoy playing in her chair.

She learned to sit up in her Bumbo...for a few moments anyway.

She got to meet Mum's & Dad's Aussie friends.

Deb, Kev & Pam came to visit.

Addi loved Deb & Pam! (And Kev, too - we just don't have a picture.)


Addi really enjoys her books.

All cleaned up after bath time.

And now for a photo shoot...

Beautiful!

Cutie!

Adorable!

Model material?

Super-cute!

Giggly!

Addi's Second Month

In Addi's second month, she grew and changed so much!  And Grandma & Grandad Gillham came to visit!  Enjoy the photos...

Addi took Mom & Dad, and Grandma & Grandad to eat at Pops.

Addi loves her Grandma Gillham!

Those eyes! She's wrapping Daddy around her little finger!

Chillin in her chair.  

Now Addi enjoys bath time, especially drying off and getting snuggled.

Addi learned so much on her mat.

Now she can swat Froggy and...

... grab the ring!

Always ready for a photo op.

Surprised by the camera flash.

Making cute faces.

Still being cute.

Man, she's so cute!

Mommy's helping Addi learn to hold up her head.

Addi's always ready to smile when it's time to go down for a nap!

Addi's First month

After we brought Addi home, we had a lot to learn. But she's an amazing little girl, if we do say so ourselves! And we were so blessed to have Arianne's mom Sherryl staying with us to help out. Thanks Sherryl! 

Here are some of the photos from Addi's first month of life...

We brought her home and she was so tiny.


She was too little for her seat.


She tried to tell us what was wrong.


Aaaah, sleep.


Her naps were slowly getting longer.


Her first bath at home.  Addi, "Mom, watch the eyes!"


Whatchu talkin bout?!


More sleep.

Three generations.


We started taking Addi out to eat.


Addi loves her Grandma Smith!


We took Addi to church.


We celebrated a big one for Daddy.


New truck!

Ok, as you can see below, it's not a new truck. It's definitely used. Very used. It's loud, rude and ugly - but it was cheap and it gets me to work!

It's two-toned. Nice, huh?


Possibly the best part of the truck is the picture on the rear window. I didn't notice it until I got it home. At first, I thought it was just a sticker. But no - it's etched into the glass. That's right: for some reason someone thought it would be a good idea to etch this guy into the window with the caption "Mountain Man."
