San Antonio

At the beginning of April, we took a quick trip to San Antonio. This was Addi's first plane trip and she did great. I tried to slip her the pacifier, just in case, but she just chewed on it and spit it out. We rented a car and ended up getting lost several times. Thank goodness for the maps on my Iphone! They saved the day. We loved eating at Casa Rio and hanging out on the Riverwalk. The girls loved Sea World and I drug them to see the Alamo. The highlight of the Alamo for the girls was the sno cone stand outside.

Addi loving on her Meme and Papa.

Chad bought the girls their very own fishing pole. He took them to Hafer park and didn't catch a thing!!:( Now, they love fishing at my parent's pond because the fish are always biting there!

Sweet baby girl.

Addi's first zoo trip. It was a nice cool day.

Ava loves to help Mommy.

We took the girls to see the Baylor boys play in the Big 12 Championship game. They just like going to games for the snacks. Very important! Don't ya love Audrey's face. Have I mentioned that she just LOVES pictures. Hahaha!

January

January started off with a party, an OU National Championship game party. Well, it didn't go as planned because the Sooners played terrible. We had good food, good friends, but terrible entertainment. Oh well, the girls looked cute and they had a blast! Our house cleared out before the end of the 4th quarter. Sooner fans do not take losing very well!!!!Addison wondering what the heck she is sitting in. One of her Christmas presents was a Bumbo seat. She still isn't too sure of it.

We met my family in Dallas to celebrate my mom's birthday at Abuelo's. It was great to see everyone, but it always ends too soon. I wish I could spend more time with them. :(

Anna Helen was tired and slept through lunch. She is getting so big!
We had a heavy sleet storm with lightening, thunder, the works. The girls were out of school for a few days. Ava is such a goofball. I don't think she will perform the face plant again because she was frozen after that!
The girls on the back patio.

Who's Who????

From the first minute I laid eyes on my little Addison, I knew she was an exact replica of her big sister, Ava. They both were born with a full head of dark hair. Now, when I go through pictures, I have a hard time determining if the pic is of Addison or Ava. Take a look and see what I mean.

If you can't tell, the top three are Ava and the last two are Addison. They look like the same baby to me. Can't wait to see how she grows. (Oh yeah, I have to add that I think Addison's nose looks like Audrey's: Audrey tends to get a little upset that I always go on and on about the similarities of the other two!)

Christmas

December went by in a blur! We stayed very busy with many school parties and celebrations. The girls loved helping decorate the tree. This year we downsized our Christmas decorations, just didn't seem to find the time (or energy) to put EVERYTHING up. Oh well, maybe next year. Oh wait. Next year, I will have little one running around pulling everything down! So, maybe we will be lucky to get up a tree next year!

Celebrating at Nana and Papa's!

Brad, Megan, and Madeline.

Addison's first VERY strong opinion: she hates hats!

We took the girls downtown to go tubing and ice skating. We had a blast!

Two little old ladies sittin on a couch! Addison and cousin Anna Helen.
All of the grandkids (minus Jacob and Taylor) at Meme and Papa's.
Ava loves her Aunt Shayne!
Jonah and Jacob getting some Chad 'love'! The entire group went bowling and had a blast!

The girls loved New Year's Eve. They toasted with their 'champagne' and didn't go to sleep until around 12:30 or 1:00. (Not sure of the exact time, I was already asleep) The bottom picture is a shot of their now infamous "Fashion Style". This is their nightly show they put on for us.
