Random Stuff

I thought of some random stuff that I thought I'd share....This is what comes of being up at 1am not being able to sleep...

* iReader- From your iGoogle or Gmail page you can go to a page where you put all of your blogs that you read in and it will show you any new posts on them. I have become a big blogging fan, so it is so cool to just go to one page to check rather than checking individual blogs (Thanks Lori) I'll give instructions to anyone interested.....haha maybe everyone else already knows!
* seriouslysoblesssed.blogspot.com- Only for those who have a sense of humor! This is basically a mockery of a newlywed blog. It is hilarious to read just for kicks. Jed's cousin Rhett told us about it and Jed laughed so hard reading through it.
* Gas Card Promotion- My real estate team is doing a promotion for buyers right now. Anybody to close on a home with us before September 30th will get a gas card for $250, $500, or $1000 depending on the price of the home. Let me know if you're in the market for a house and I'll give details.
*Addie's stats- I took Addie for her six month check-up the other day and here are her stats- She weighs 15.5 lbs , 25.75 inches long and is healthy :) She had to get shots which I hate even more than she does, but she's a tough girl.
*Dresses anywhere?- So we have 2 weddings coming up in the next couple of months and I decided that shopping for "modest" dresses sucks, especially when you need a certain color. I can't wear most things out there, and the stores that specialize in dresses for us LDS friends want me to pay $200 or more for a dress that I'll never wear again. I'm not necessarily asking for a solution....mostly just want to rant about it.

Party Time!

So we have officially deemed the month of July as the nonstop party month. Between Birthdays and Holidays and just BBQ's with friends, we've been partying a lot the past few weeks! Between our families we have 9 Birthdays- including Jed's!! So let the fun begin! Here are some pictures from our get togethers this weekend...

Here are Addie and little friend Reagan. Reagan is the daughter of our friends, Van and Lori. They played really cute together. They're both sitting pretty well now and were just sitting playing with each other's toys. They wanted to not only share toys, but also binkis, which we had to put a stop to. Haha, they're funny. Reagan rolled around and Addie wanted to just play with Reagan's face. Too fun to watch :) Addie rolled from her back to tummy while there for the first time! Jed missed it so hopefully she'll do it again soon.

Grandma Rees with our nephew Grady and niece Taylor- we all love swimming parties

James and Lacey brought their cute kids...Hailey loves the water! Hannah on the other hand is not so sure about it. By the end of the day, she was jumping in. Kemmer is in the background playing basketball with Chad. He's so cute and he loves swimming too.

So whatever bakery thought "Oh, let's put hot pink frosting on these cupcakes" did not anticipate this..... our niece Hannah sure loved it though! But that frosting dyed everyone's skin for the rest of the day.

Addie and Taylor, the birthday girl , just turned 1! Cute Cousins!

6 Months Old!

Addie is 6 months old! Where did a half of a year go? She just keeps getting more and more fun, which helps make up for the fact that she isn't our tiny newborn anymore. We love this little girl to pieces. She is our world and we're not sure what we did before her. And yes, my daughter is wearing a onsie with a tutu attached to it....does this really surprise anyone? ;)

She loves her feet! This is a standard Addie position- grabbing her toes with her tongue out.

Our big girl! She decided the nigth before she turned 6 months old that she liked rice cereal. After about a month of trying it off and on, she finally ate some. Before she always would spit it out and not swallow it. It's as if she thought, "well I'm going to be 6 months old, I guess I should eat this. She even laughed last night while eating it.

The Weller Clan

I forgot to post this picture with all of the ones from Gramp's Birthday. It's the whole family minus Brian, Ashley and Whitney.

Happy 80th Birthday Grandpa Darrell!

What a great day! We had a huge party at the Weller's for Jed's Grandpa and Addie's Great Grandpa. Lots of family and friends came by to see Grandpa Darrell and it was a lot of fun to see everyone. Addie is quite the party girl and LOVES all the people! I can't get over how much she loves big groups of people. She was so tired and needed a nap but kept on partying. Happy 80th Gramp- we all love you!

Here is Addie and Grandma Lynette and Grandpa Darrell at the party- too cute!

I just loved this picture of Addie with her Great Gramp before the party started just hanging out on the swing. She loves him. You can see where she gets her good looks ;)

Addie has discovered balloons and loves them! She played with them all day with everyone. Jed's cousin Jenny was really cute with her making sure she had all the balloons she wanted. Jen- you took some other cute pics today- please email them :) then we'll blog 'em up!

4th of July

We had such a fun 4th of July with Addie! We started with going breakfast in the park in Huntsville. It was so nice and cool and Addie just loves being outside with lots of people to smile at and charm. We went and visited with Niki and Brian for a bit since they're in town....we miss getting to see them.

Then we went over to Grandma Rees's house to swim and visit with family. It was so fun to splash and see everyone- including Addie's new cousin Beckam. He's so cute and little :)

We went up to Papa Steve and Grammy Dawn's house for a BBQ and fireworks. Again, Addie thought the fireworks were funny. We're glad she wasn't afraid of them. Here are some pics from the day....

Cute cousins! Sorry the picture isn't the best....it is hard getting 2 babies to look. And no, Beckam isn't doing a gang sign ;)

Here is baby Beckam, isn't he a sweetie pie? We love him already.

Swimming sure wears out baby Addie and apparently daddy too :)

Our little family before fireworks

Addie's first Parade

The parade itself was kind of lame, but look how darling Addie was looking all patriotic :) Papa Steve is glad he has a little one to go with him to parades now. It was founders day in Pleasant View on Saturday.....we'll be doing it again for the 4th. We also saw fireworks that night and I was worried that she'd be scared but she just watched and was fine. Every once in awhile she'd say "haaa".....little cutie pie.
