Addison at Eight Months

Here's what our little 8-month-old has been up to lately:

Hiking in Ogden. Really this was more like a month ago. We forgot sunscreen, but he just got a tan. I think he's darker than Nate and I now.


Swimming at Grandma and Grandpa W's hotel when they came to visit for 4th of July.



Pulling up. This started almost simultaneously with crawling. He got a kick out of his bed at Grandma and Grandpa W's house because he could pull up and check himself out in the mirror.


His first parade! We had Roy Days last week and they finished it off with a parade on Saturday. Addison loved the firetrucks.


Dance party with Dad. He didn't even spit up afterward!



Also, back in the day when I said he got his two front teeth at seven months, I was amiss. It was actually his four front teeth. It scared me when he had one front tooth and one side tooth for awhile (I was picturing baby braces), but the others are finally in.

Nate the daredevil

We had one more adventure last Saturday that Nate was too embarrassed to write about. Before our hiking excursion we went to Liberty Park to feed the ducks. Addison had a great time in his stroller soaking up some rays and watching the lake and the people and the birds. We tried hard to avoid the seagulls, which are gross if you've never had much contact with them, and to get to the two ducks that were around, but competition for that bread was pretty fierce, so Nate decided to make the geese work for it (since they're the only ones that would). The documented evidence makes me wonder who was working harder, though, and who was more scared. Must be those ferocious beaks or the powerful weapons they like to call webbed feet. Notice Addison's feet in the video where you can see them.

Golden Parenting Moments

Several weeks ago, Nate woke up feeling gung-ho on a Saturday morning and decided we were going on a family sledding trip. I was a grump, but went along with it anyway. By the time we found a decent place and got a good trail worn down the kids got snow in their drawers and it was time to go. We had a great time, obviously. Poor Nate! .
