Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and LET US RUN with endurance the race set before us, LOOKING UNTO JESUS, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God." Heb 12:1&2

July Part 1

The month of July flew by!!!!! I blame it on the lack of sleep, having 4 kids, a busy month,  being in denial that homeschooling starts in a few weeks, and Mat and I both celebrating our birthdays .. So this post is going to be a photo update of the beginning of the month of July!!!


Mimi and Papa came and we had a wonderful week with them the first week Addy came home! This was on the 4th of July.

After Mimi and Papa left we headed to my mom's for a bbq and so see the fireworks. Addy and I ended up in the car for the fireworks. Therefore the lack of pictures from that night :)


Addy at 10 days trying her new swing. She wasn't too sure about it





Family game time






 Family baseball night at the park







       Fun days at the park.
With ice cream treats from Nana



I love this!!! and to my surprize it didn't end in a wrestling match


Happy 30th Birthday to Daddy!


That was a funny gift from Jas and Tiff.. Inside was 30 suckers :)

1 month old

You are already a month old our little Addy!

  And this is what you thought of our little photo session :)
Oh but you do have such a cute crabby face!

At 1 month you are very alert.
This past week we have been getting into a better sleep/awake pattern.

You are a colicky baby right now but that just means more cuddle time :)





And a gift from God you are to us.
 A few weeks ago Tayler and I did a little photo shoot of you..
Here are some of my favorites 
















At the end of the shoot all you wanted was to be held and actually that is all you really want all the time.. Hence the lack of blog updates lately :)

You are most happy when you are laying on a shoulder and having your back or bottom patted.
Mommy invested in a carrier so hopefully we will start getting more things done
but most importantly we are all just enjoying this time because we know that it goes all to fast!

I have yet  to capture your new skill on camera so you will just have to take my word for it....
You are smiling at us now!!!
 I will hopefully be posting a picture of it soon.

Happy 1 month Addison Juliette!
