Home Again (Happy St. Patty's Day)

We have just returned from visiting the Grate State of Illinois.

We spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday with John and Elizabeth. Addison was a trooper, eight hours there and she slept most of the time. We had a wonderful time catching up, helped paint, and had plenty of time to relax and meet some of their friends and family. Our time together went by way to quickly. I still can't believe how well Addison did. She made herself right at home, slept well every night. She slept most of the eight hours on the way home too. As much fun as we had, it does feel nice to be home. I am now off to start unpacking, fun, fun, fun!

Taking a break along the way:

Addison Update

She is a very busy little girl. She is a little chatterbox, making new sounds everyday. She loves looking at her books and also loves playing the piano. She is crusing all around. It's crazy how much she has grown! She will be nine months old next week.

Cloth Diapers

I just wanted to thank Mom for all the flannel diapers she whipped up for me. They are absolutly adorable and what we needed. With what we already have we should be set. There's no way I would have been able to get that many done any time soon! Sorry for the picture overload, but they are to cute not to post pictures.

The diapers Mom made are pocket diapers, there is a pocket on top to put the insert inside. They require an insert of some kind for absorbancy. I use microfiber which works great. A cover is also needed. These have worked really well for us. I love using them!
