Happy Half Birthday, Addy

My baby is six months old today! I can't believe how fast time has gone and how much she has grown. She is doing really well with sitting up, though she still topples over on occasion. She is loving new foods and is sleeping in her crib in her own room (as of my birthday!). She is such a sweet and beautiful baby!

Father's Day

For father's day, I convinced Alex that we needed to have some pictures of him and Addy. He reluctantly agreed, and here is what we got:

The same stink-eye that Addy gave me on mother's day,


and a typical Alex picture, though this time the finger is not in his nose!


Alex is so happy to be a papa...he even picked out Addy's dress on Father's day!

Five Months!

Really late (considering she'll be six months this week), but here is Addy at five months. Right around her five month birthday, she started cutting teeth. She now has her two front bottom teeth growing in.

We had two photo shoots, because Addy was not really into sitting still this time.

Westward ho!

We took a trip to Colorado to visit my grandparents, and much of my family was there. Here is Addy with Great-Grandpa Wilson:

And with my Aunt Joyce, who makes some of the yummiest treats:

And with Great-Grandma Wilson, who commented many times on Addy's undeniable cuteness:

With Uncle J, who got to meet Addy for the first time here:



And with Aunt Electa. She borrowed Uncle J's shirt because it was pretty chilly out. Pretty soon after this, Uncle J learned that he shouldn't let Addy borrow his clothes!



Addy and Daddy at the hot springs in Ouray:


Roasting giant marshmallows at Grandma's and Grandpa's house.

Dad took Alex and I into Telluride to see the town and for Alex to experience altitude of over 10,000 feet!


Addy spent lots of time with her fun cousins:


I got to see my wonderful sisters:


Addy got to have lots of snuggle time with Grandma and to meet cousin Charlie, who just wanted to touch her face all the time:

Here are four generations of Wilsons. I am really glad we got to go so Addy could meet her great-grandparents. Alex is not standing on a box...we Wilsons are just that short. :)

Look what I can do!

Visit at Honeymoon Island

Grandma and Grandpa Berger could not stand to stay away from Addy very long, so at the beginning of May they came over and we took a little trip over to the beach to look for shells and take a walk. We went to Honeymoon Island, which was really nice. Here are a few images from our visit.

My First Mother's Day

For my first mother's day, Alex gave me a day of relaxation, which I needed because I had to be in Miami the next day for a trial. One of the things I asked for was to have Alex take a few pictures of me with the baby, because I'm usually the one with the camera. Alex doesn't have the patience or attention span to work my camera, so this was sort of a big deal. He got a couple of cute ones, including the one above. I very much enjoy being this baby's mama.
