Farr better than sweet peas

So Addie woke up today and her first tooth has popped through! Yay! It has been bothering her off and on and last night she was pretty upset so I was hoping it would finally break through.

Since the day Addie was born, her Papa Steve has been wanting to take her to Farr's Ice Cream. I have repeatedly told him that she's too little to have any sweets, especially ice cream, much to his dismay. Well today I FINALLY caved in! We needed to celebrate her new tooth!

We got her a little cone of peach sorbet since it isn't dairy. She only had a few spoonfuls, but far more sugar than she's ever had. Haha, she was a little hyper afterward.

On a side note for other paranoid mothers.... You always hear "once you give them sugar, they won't eat their vegetables." Well I'm happy to report that right after we got home I fed Addie some sweet peas, and she still loved them! I'm not saying she's going to be having sweets on a regular basis, but I know that the grandparents will always be giving her "tastes" of things =) Isn't that what they're there for?!

"Toys" Addie thinks are toys

So our little daughter has decided that there are SO many fun toys to play with. Unfortunately, none of them are actual toys. Case in point....

The Remote ControlIt is sooo much more fun than other toys. You can line up 5 real toys and the remote and without fail, she'll choose the remote. (note the actual toy in the corner of the photo) Don't you love her wild morning hair too? Haha, that comes from taking out pigtails then sleeping 10 hours.

Jelly Shoes
Why on Earth would you want to chew on a teething ring when there are perfectly good jellies to chew on. Seriously, these are her favorite things to chew on. Needless to say they spend little time on her feet.

Mommy's Phone

Doesn't she look so innocent here? That's until you notice the blackberry in her left hand...kind of hard to see sorry. And yes, that is her butterfly (actual toy) next to her being ignored.

She also LOVES all bottles...like bottled water, Coke bottles or anything of the like. She thinks it is hilarious to watch people drink out of them and also out of glasses. She will dive toward any of these items. Everyone thinks she wants what is in them, but she just wants to eat the actual bottle. Silly girl.

7 Months Old!

Hooray I'm seven months old! I just learned to clap my hands and I love to play in my jumper and go wild. I also have decided that I like most of my new baby food and my mommy cheated and let me try her zeppe yesterday and I LOVED it! I'm starting to get a tooth, but it hasn't come through yet.

Addie got these pictures taken by her great aunt Janet today.....so cute! Janet started her own photography business "Shadows of Time" and she does such a great job. Anyone wanting fun family, wedding, or baby pictures should call her. She has great pricing and will come to you if you want :)

This picture is just too sweet....it reminds me of getting her first pictures done at 7 weeks- time has flown by!One of my favorite outfits ever! She's pretty cute too :)

Pretty girl in a big poofy girly dress! This is for her uncle Dustin's wedding in 2 weeks....but who can wait that long? Not me!

Jackson Hole

Happy Birthday Whitney and Ashley! Jed's sisters turned 19 on Sunday, so we all played in Jackson Hole this weekend to celebrate. Here are the birthday girls with Addie after a yummy breakfast at the Bunnery.

Our little family at Jenny Lake- look at those pretty mountains!
Jed, me, Addie, Kacey and Blake hanging out at Jenny Lake. It was a fun little adventure up to the Tetons....we all agreed it was better than looking at overpriced tourist shops in town.

I don't usually like a lot of pictures without people in them, but this was too gorgeous!

Happy Anniversary to us!

Thursday was our 6 year anniversary! I can't believe that much time has gone by. It has been a pretty blissful road too. I can honestly say that I've never for one minute had any regrets for marrying my best friend 6 years ago. I look back and we were so young! I was going to put a picture from our wedding up but I still haven't scanned them (yes, it was long enough ago our pictures weren't digital)

I'm so grateful that I get to be married to Jed. He is such a great person. He is so caring and willing to help others. He always listens to me ramble (which is often) and can always repeat it back when I think he isn't listening.

Just when I thought that I couldn't possible love this man any more, we had Addison. He has been such a sweet and cute dad with her that it makes my heart melt everyday. I have loved watching him with her and seeing how happy she is to see him when he comes home. I love you the most friend! Thanks for loving me back all these years!

Here we are 6 years later....this was this weekend at Jenny Lake

Buddies

Deneal is one of my best friends from high school. She's usually flying around the world in jets, yes literally flying them. She was here on a break and we got to play with her. It was fun to catch up and Addie loved it too since we were swimming. She loves to splash! Btw, Deneal you look like a model!
I love July! I think I have seen more family and friends this month than the past year!

Sweet Potatos and little sweeties

Hooray! Addie is eating some solid foods now! She has decided that she likes the vegetables much better than the rice cereal. She likes sweet potatos and squash too. We'll keep adding new ones every few days and see what she thinks. (and I know that these kind of pictures are rarely cute to anyone other than the actual parents, but I had to share)


Friday Addie and I had a play date with Lori and her girls Reagan and Jaylee. Here are Addie and Reagan playing in the water together- so cute! They loved sitting there watching the kids and being wet. This park is so much fun! Good find Lori!

We went back tonight with some of my cousins and their cute little kids. I didn't get any good pictures though- Netti you'll have to send me some :)
