reasons why...

...i love addision

Today alone she did three HUGE things. First of all, she took two steps on her own...she was pushing her little shopping cart and she took it nice and slow and did so good! Secondly, she learned how to put some shapes in her shape sorter. Lastly, she said "Mama." Not the mamammamamamamma she has been doing but a real "Mama!" My heart has never been so warm.

Not only that but she made me crack up in the middle of babies r us. We were going to get a gift for a baby shower this weekend. Addison was sitting in the front of the cart and was belted in. And the little Houdini managed to turn around and stand up in the front of the cart and hold on to the back of the basket. She had one of her shoes in her hand and everytime we walked past another baby or little kid she shook her shoe at them and did her little "adadada!" yell at them.

I also thought a lot about her this week - she has been working on this one tooth for almost two months - and she hasn't even seemed to mind. What an absolute angel.

Congratulations mama!!! That is truly a great accommplishment!! Mom told me that you had a great post so I had to get online and check it this morning. You are on my mind and I have you at the top of my call back list... I appreciate your patience during busy season. We are releasing earnings on Wednesday so hopefully things will slow down after this last push.

Love you

They grow too fast! Ewan is pulling himself up on things. We are just counting the days until he starts running around. Life will get a bit busier then!

"My heart has never been so warm." Awwe, Sara, that's so touching. Your writing is so descriptive ("the little Houdini"). Keep it up. Now if we could just get Lindsey to update her blog....!
