Pretending to cough

Addison has been fighting a cold over the past week. During this time, she has discovered that if she coughs she will get attention. So now, Addison coughs until you come to her. Last night we realized that she was not actually coughing but wanted attention when she immediately stopped coughing and started laughing. This girlie is smart and this is the first sign that we are going to have our hands full.

Tooth watch at 10 months old


The picture angles are a little crazy b/c it is not easy to convince a 10 month old to show off her new teeth. She now has about 1/3rd of her bottom two teeth exposed and her top two teeth are peeking through. Addison is now enjoying some of our chicken or beef when we eat dinner. I just don't know how much of that she is actually swallowing or if she is just feeding it to the dogs. Boomer has recently become Addison's favorite eating partner.

Christmas Picture Attempts

Addison and her daddy

The happy family


Our sweet puppies


Mom and Dad came in town last weekend and Mom helped to take our holiday pictures. You'll have to check your mail to see which picture made the Christmas card. The dogs all look sooo sad b/c I asked them to sit/stay in my "not so nice voice".
