Gramma's Birthday and the Fair

Aunt Amanda with her favorite niece!


Josh eating the huge turkey leg at the fair. It was a lot of meat!


Kim, Addison and I at the fair.



Not sure how to flip this picture so sorry, but here is daddy with his second favorite girl.












Gramma's (Josh's mom) birthday was on September 2nd and we took Addison's gramma out to eat to Iannuci's. I have included this picture of all of us. We had a great time. Frank and Linda had never been there.










This past Friday we went to the fair. It was Addison's first trip to the fair. She loved looking at all the lights on the rides and the huge bulls. We had a blast people watching, eating jumbo turkey legs, hot apple cobbler and ice cream, potato rounds and of course sweet tea! It was Addison's first time in her big stroller without the car seat. She loved sitting up watching everything with her mouth open. Addison has started this new thing where she tries to blow bubbles and make noise with her mouth at the same time. It is so cute to watch and listen. Aunt Amanda was at our
house when we came home from the fair and Addison was very excited to see her. Aunt Amanda put her in the pajamas that she bought for Addison and then spent time with her until it was time for Addison to go to sleep. Saturday, we went down to Liberty for Addison's first trip to her Mimaw's outside of the womb. Mimaw (not sure how you spell that) had a bathtub for Addison, a pack-n-play, a crib, a teether, another bug toy and lots of love waiting for her when she got there. Addison stayed with Mimaw while Amanda, Ted, Daddy and I went to the Clemson-NC State football game. That was one hot couple of hours! I was burning up!! I got sun burnt pretty bad. I am always telling Josh to wear sunscreen and I didn't even think about wearing it myself. We went and ate Mexican after the game and then chilled with Mimaw and PaPa for the evening. We came back home on Sunday to see Josh. He worked Saturday night third shift. Josh was very happy to see us. That was about it for the weekend.

Weston is 2 Years’s old & Hurricane Helene

Weston started preschool for the first time in August. We were nervous about him biting other children as he bites an often. He will bite our shoulders when things do lot go his way. He enjoys going to nursery at church and childcare at the YMCA so we were hopeful he would enjoy it. So far he has done great! I did get a notice from the school that he had been bit by another child. I had to read it twice to make sure I read it right but I did. Weston is very outgoing and likes interacting with the people he is around.   Weston still doesn’t use many words but it is increasing at a slow rate.  He can say Mama, Dada, Go, Bubble, Ball, Hello, Up, Hi, and Out.  We have started him in speech therapy.  Weston is starting to be more of a daddy’s boy. He has asked him to rock him to sleep a few times. He loves to be outside especially anytime daddy is outside. We have to make sure the front door has a safety lock on it or he will just walk out the front door when no one is pa...

Boy How Time Flies!

Well I can't believe Addison is 17 months old and Kaitlyn is a few days away from being 2 months old! We are all doing well. Addison is saying more and more words. She pretty much tries to repeat most of the words we say. Josh just keeps saying "She is so much fun". Addison is becoming more of a daddy's girl since I am always nursing Kaitlyn or picking up the house. She says "Dada" much more than "Mama." She now calls my father Papa and my mom Mimi. My father came up this weekend and if any of you know my father, of course, he bought us doughnuts. And Addison definitely knows the word doughnuts due to my dad. I am having to look for winter clothes for Addison so I am on the hunt for cheap winter outfits for her. Clothes are so expensive! Kaitlyn is growing out of all of her newborn size clothes but I keep putting them on her because I know she will never wear these cute outfits ever again. She has started cooing and she smiles a lot. She is sleepin...

1 Year Old Birthday Party

I can't believe Addison is a year old today!! She had a wonderful turnout at her birthday party this past Saturday. I believe there were over 35 people total that came! She got many clothes, toys and socks. We are so thankful for all of her gifts. Tonight Josh and I took her to Cracker Barrell so she could have a pancake on her actual birthday. We sang "Happy Birthday" to her many times today and each time she smiled really big at us while we sang to her. Isn't this sweet! Addison with her aunt Kim. This is 4 generations and Addison was reaching for her aunt Kim. Here she wasn't being shy anymore. This was her personal cake and she wasn't sure if she could touch it. She petted it for a while and finally she ate some after I started feeding it to her. Addison and her very loved uncle Jeff. Notice how content she is in his arms. She also loved the train her uncle Jeff got her. She loved her chair she got from her aunt Nancy. Addison and her great grandm...
