Swimming










Addison and I were invited to join some friends at their neighborhood pool. She really liked the shallow end of the kiddie pool and floating in the "big" pool in an inflatable crab. She was a little more weary of the water when I took her out of the crab and held her in the pool. She was okay with it as long and she could hold on very tight to my arm. She got to wear her new bikini and her ear plugs stayed in really well (gotta protect those ear tubes).

Learning about Indian Culture

Addison and I attended a playgroup hosted by a friend who grew up in Texas, Germany and India called "Seven Little Indian Girls". She taught us about Indian culture and then all of the little girls got to play. She gave us all bindi sticks for our foreheads.





Random Play




I don't think that little girls really need itty bitty bikinis but I saw this bikini at a neighbor's garage sale and decided that I really need it. Addison loves baths and is brave enough to stick her head in the water and blow bubbles so I think she will love it when we actually get in a swimming pool.

I also took Addison to a park and she loved the swing. In the past, she has been less than enthusiastic about swinging but she loved it at the park when she got to sit in the gigantic swing.

Rangers Game



Friends invited us to a Rangers game last week. We had a great time but it was so different from last time we attended. The previous time it was August, 102 degrees, Addison was 2 months old, the Rangers lost and I was miserable (but happy to get some good pictures). This time it was cold (Addison wore a hat) but the Rangers actually won! I attached a picture from our first trip as well as the last.

Dallas Arboretum






If you ever want to feel like a rock star, dress up your baby girl in a pink tutu and walk through the Arboretum in Dallas. Addison, my mother in law and I went there last Friday. The weather was perfect and I took so many pictures. Addison was so stinkin' cute that random visitors even stopped to take her picture!
