Who does Addie look like?

So along with the question "is she sleeping through the night yet?" (you know better than to ask me that in person. For the answer, read the previous post) many people ask "which of you does she look like more?" Well, it's kind of hard to tell since Steve and I don't currently look like a bald little baby, so I figured that finding old photos of us when we were Addie's age or close could help settle the score.

So...what do you think? There aren't that many baby photos of us on the computer, so I tried to my best to pick ones that I thought were comparable angles.

Here's Stevo on the left and a younger Addie on the right.



This is me (monica) on the left when I was a little'un, and that's Addie on the right.

What do you want from me, Senor duckie?


If you know Steve, you've seen this face before ;)

I know why mom's get the "mom haircut"!

I get it now. I always wondered why moms always seem to get shorter and shorter haircuts.

Well, since Addie started sucking on her fists as if she got paid a full time salary for her efforts, the fact that she was pulling my hair out in chunks didn't seem so innocent anymore--I was worried she was eating my hair! That just can't be good for digestion.

So...in time-honored traditions of moms everywhere, I got a short haircut.

Here is before:


And here is after:



All bundled up to head out for lunch with her little friend Anne, et al.


The answer to everyone's question is: No, she's not sleeping through the night yet. And neither are we.

Addie has recently learned that she can actually bring things to her mouth with her hands. Here she is trying to French kiss Winnie the Pooh.

Bath-time is so much fun because adorable hooded towels triple the cuteness factor.

Post-bath-time cuddling with Daddy.

Addie loves imitating us, which is so much fun. Here she shows us "oooh" which, as you all know, is her favorite sound nowadays. Ooompa Loompa...


"I'm so happy I could throw up!"


Eww......

I love this picture because you can see her delicious sumo wrestler legs..and it looks like she's saying...

BYE!!

Happy Valentines Day!

Addie is full of smiles and love for everyone of you out there on this day of love!


A wet smooch for you!

Mmm...my hand tastes better than those conversation hearts. Be Mine!


Happy Valentines Day, everyone!!! :)

Guess who is 3 months old now!!


Um...is anyone else shocked that Addie is already 3 months old, or is it just me? Sure, it's hard to remember life without her, but 3 whole months?!?!??!

We spent her birthday cleaning, shopping (we got the model's featured outfit at Old Navy), and getting ice cream at the Dairy Godmother (flavor of the day: Tollhouse Cookie) with Uncle Dan, Grandma Eva, and our friends Jessica and Fraser.

Today was 3-month photo-shoot day and these were some of the faves: (sorry, there are a lot, I promise I narrowed it down--she just had so many smiles today!!)









What's making Addie smile so much lately? Well, she's kind of bored of me making "munching sounds" which so entranced her as a 2 month old (she's SO over that).

She's now a big fan of any song with the sound "ooo" in it. So there's a lot of singing of "Oompa Loompa" and "Duke Duke Duke, Duke of Earl Earl Earl" and just the word "Agoo" seems to delight the little one.

Welcome Anne!

Remember my friend Bess from our pregnant belly modeling shoot way back when? Well Bess had her little tater, Anne Laura, 2 and a half weeks ago. Addie is very excited to have a new friend in town to hang out and take walks with!

Here they are hanging out yesterday.





Welcome to the world, little Anne!

Everyone needs their Adeline fix

So it's been a whopping week and a half since we updated the blog, and man, Addie's public is quite demanding! "It's been soooo long since you posted" you say? Well, now I'm back to work--and working from home is not as easy as it sounds when you have a little one who may or may not take naps!

So even though I have to prepare for a teleclass tonight, I am definitely one to procrastinate in the name of Addie's public. Oh, what am I saying? I just like to procrastinate. :)

Oh, and just because we haven't been posting on the blog, doesn't mean the camera has stopped clicking away. All I have to say is, thank goodness for digital cameras!


Some general cuteness
Helllllooooo in there
You know, just relaxin', watchin' the game, having a bud...

The g-parents came down from NJ last week!

See grandma, I DO like wearing the bonnet! ;)

Getting bundled for a walk. She looks like she has a secret, no?

Cuddle time spectacular!


We sometimes call her "Mudge" when she sits all mudge-like.

Baby's first girly bow!


This is my favorite outfit that currently fits Addie (she grows out of them so quickly!)

So we had a photoshoot...

Which zonked out the little diva.

Becca, Craig, and Beth came by for a visit. Becca says her sleepy mouth looks like a sombrero--I see it! :)

No, Mommy, I'm not ready for bed yet!

Gotta love baby jeans. Well...Addie doesn't, actually, she prefers to be naked.

So sometimes we have nakey time!

Cutest. Butt. Ever.

Bye for now!
