Happy Birthday Bob

Happy Birthday to Dad's favorite singer. Dylan is 98 today. Here he is in 1968 with his daughter.

New Slide

Mom found this used slide at a yard sale on Saturday. Addy loves the slides at the park, and now she has even more reason to beg us to go outside each day. It was beautiful this weekend, sunny and 75.

New Tricks

DoG Street Outing

Addy and Mom went to CW today with Hudson, Charlotte, Jack Jack, and baby Logan. The second picture is Addy and Hudson climbing the giant tree behind the Courthouse that Dad used to climb up into as a college kid when he wanted to relax...then jumping out to scare tourists on passing Ghost Tours. Ah, those were the days.

Late Pictures from Clemson

The Grey's Anatomy Effect

The Social Security Administration released the top baby names for 2006 on Mother's Day and it look whose name is headed to the top of the charts! Here is a quote from the article.

"For girls, the hot story is the name Addison, rocketing from # 106 in 2005 to # 27 in 2006. Addison looks like a name on its way to the top ranks."

Road Trip; Part 2

Road Trip: Part 1

Mom, Dad, and Addy drove to Clemson, SC this weekend to celebrate Aunt Caroline's graduation after four wonderful years in Death Valley as a Clemson Tiger. Addy is not much of a car sleeper, but with some in car DVDs, some Dick Woodward sermon tapes, and plenty of caffeine, we made the two 7 hour trips on back to back days unscathed. Here is Addy during some of her better moments. The worst moment...Dad driving right through a bathroom break and Addy wetting her entire car seat. Way to go Dad!

Pics of the Week

Addy's Great Aunt Kari took these pictures while we were in Minnesota at the wedding (see the video in the previous post below for Addy posing).

Slumber Party

Addy had her first sleep over with Maci Flowers whose parents were at the Richmond Nascar Race on Saturday night. As you can see, no girls night is complete without jumping on the bed. Check out the hops on my little girl.

My First Tea Party

Addy dug into the pantry this morning and took out paper plates and bowls and without either of us watching her, set her little four person table herself. Not a bad location either, a table with a window view. Looks like there is only enough soup for one person.

Come and Get Me

Watch me get outsmarted by a 15 month old when it comes time to go to bed.

By Special Request

Aunt Caroline phoned in her request for more videos since her Clemson friends have been replaying the roaring lion one over and over again. So just for you girls, here is Addy's newest word. Try to ignore the fact that we let her sit at the dinner table topless.
