Brett is already getting bored this summer. With Addison being so small it is hard to stay on the go like we have in the past. We started going through his toy closet upstairs and found a book on making paper airplanes. Brett picked one that he wanted to make. It took us 6 hours over a 2 day period. It looks really cool, but it doesn't fly so well. We both enjoyed making it. Brett also got a great lesson in measurement without even realizing it. Each piece, fold, and cut had very precise measurements that he had to figure out. We went to the bookstore last night for him to pick out his last required read for the summer. He picked the shortest book on the list (of course). Joe tried to read him a chapter on the way home but he put on his headphones and watched part of a movie instead. He wants to finish all of his required reading before beach week starts. He has made it very clear that he doesn't want to do any homework while we're there.
Addison is doing great! She is smiling and laughing all the time. I took her to the Dr. last week and she was 10 lbs. 13 oz. She is beginning to grow out of her 0-3 month clothes and into her 3-6 month outfits. Now that she is filling out many people have commented that she is beginning to look a little like her daddy.
Joe and I watched the Bucket List last week and began talking about things that would be on ours. The top thing on his list was to go see a Florida game in the "swamp". So, we now have tickets to go see Ole Miss vs. Florida on September 27th. It is the SEC home game opener. We've decied to make a little vacation out of it and spend a few days at Universal Studios in Orlando. Brett is going to start doing lemonade stands this summer to save money for the trip. I don't know who's more excited!
The top picture was taken at our house on father's day. The second picture is of Addison at 12 weeks old. The third picture is Brett with his paper airplane. The last picture is Brett at his baseball campout on the river.
