We're Back!

So I guess when you have two babies at home the blog becomes the last thing on the list. At least it has been for me. I'm going to do my best to keep up with this a little better. We shall see :)
So here are some pics since I've been gone over the past 10 months :)

Miss Hallie Ann finally arrived and has been a blessing to our little family in so many ways. She is such a happy baby, full of smiles, and of course full of cute baby rolls :) She has grown way too fast, as to be expected, and makes my heart melt with her sweet smile and baby giggles.
Addie and her grow closer together more and more as she gets older. She Loves her big sis, and right now Addie could just about do anything in front of her and Hallie can't help but smile. They are so fun together. I can't wait to see their relationship grow closer as they get older.

In April my sister-in-law Jessica got married shortly after Hallie was born. Her husband Chris is the match that God intended for her, and has been a wonderful addition to the Henson family. We love him! Addie has finally gotten over her scared phase of Chris, and Hallie is truly in Love with him :)

Check out her gorgeous dress, isn't it Exquisite! (As you would say in our house because we are Obsessed with Fancy Nancy over here) And yes, my mother-in-law made it :) Every detail of the wedding was incredible. Mostly all put together or made by Jess herselft. She's definitely got a lot of "Martha Stewart" in her, much like me...ha, yeah right :)

Addie got to join in with the wedding party. So cute. She did pretty good.

And here is our Happy Happy Miss Hallie. Got couldn't of blessed us with a Happier baby. She is a Joy.

This was Addie's "I don't smile for pictures stage".

Daddy's turn to watch Miss Hallie. Love it!

3 months old

Do these shoes fit Mom?

Proud of baby sister.

One of my favorite pictures. I have one of Addie in this mini skirt and it makes me laugh everytime I see it. So cute!

Summer fun in the back yard. Does it get any better than this?

Picnic time!

Just the girls. This was before we said bye bye to Bo-Bo (Addie's passie). Went better than expected. According to Addie, her Bo-Bo to this day is "broken".

Chuck E Cheese girl. Very proud of her prizes :)

Sweet Happy girl :)

The rolls...oh I love the rolls :)

This was one of the first pics Addie actually took with her sister and smiled. We're getting better thank goodness.

This girl doe not stop laughing and smiling.

Who needs clothes when you're working in the kitchen.

Again, Happy Happy girl :)

Addie's first day of Preshool. She's a pro, loves it!

One Little Monkey Jumping On The Bed...

Yes, the day has come. We moved Addie to a "big girl" bed this past weekend. Ahhh, I can cry just talking about it. She's been sleeping in a bed at Mimi's house for awhile now. And since baby Hallie is on her way, we decided the transition would be better before she arrived. As you can tell she LOVES the bed. We didn't have any trouble getting her to sleep in it. She's actually been sleeping better now that she's in the bed. Should have done this months ago. Thank you Lord for such an easy transition.

Grandma is making Addie a super cute quilt for the bed and pillows to match. It's not done yet, but when it is I will have to post a pic because it is going to be gorgeous. Very blessed to have such a talented mother-in-law.

Addie and Grandma loving the new bed. So cute :)

The Ultimate Big Wheel

Isaac was out of town the other weekend so Addie and I headed to Mimi's and Papa's house. Papa has been dying to take Addie for a ride in his new dune buggy. Why does he have this crazy car you ask? Well, one day it's going down to the beach to their beach condo. But for now, my Dad gets to play like a kid again in his fancy adult "Big Wheel".

Addie finally got her ride. Never really smiled, but Refused to get out of the big car. Did I mention that this car has no seat belts. Yeah, Mom was a little panicked. Addie did good though. That girl never moved a muscle.

This is Addie begging Papa to not make her get out. Loves her Papa :)

The other love in her life is Muffins. Yes, hard to imagine that this girl has a love for food :) Mimi got her hooked on muffins. So we made her favorite, Blueberry. Of course Addie calls them "Mushishs". And we of course had to pull out her cute apron that Daddy got her. Not sure why she seems to think the spoon goes up her nose. Guess we are still learning :)

Christmas Pics

So I realize this is way late, and I'm not the best blogger these days. I'm going to play the pregnancy card on that one :) Wanted to share some of our Christmas pics. Somehow again, we didn't get a family picture on Christmas. How does that happen? So these are just of Addie...no surprise there. This first one is Addie last year at Christmas. I put her in the same tutu this year. Becoming such a big girl. Oh how I miss all the chunk and rolls. Hopefully baby Hallie will have them like here sister.

This is officially one of Addie's new favorite things...Coloring at her table. We are Obsessed! I should have attached a picture of me sitting at the table with her (which is quite humorous with the pregnant belly) because that is what she wants to do every day with Mommy. Give the girl some colors or stickers and she is good for an hour.

Addie got a super adorable retro pink kitchen for Christmas. She LOVES it! It's been fun to see her start to pretend play.

And we actually had a white Christmas this year! Crazy all the snow we got. So as a good Dad, Isaac took Addie outside to build a snowman. Unforntunately Addie wanted nothing to do with the snow. Totally freaked her out. Such a girl. And Isaac was the classic Texas man that thought he could build a snowman without gloves on. That didn't go over too well.

Such a sad little snowman.

Christmas Fun!

So we've been up to a lot lately. Today we made it to the new Ft. Worth Children's Museum. Very cool! Will definitely be going back. They had an entire hospital play area with newborn baby dolls and all the fun stuff that goes with them. Addie was in heaven. She got lots of practice for her new sister thats on her way :) Plus she got to ride in a fun ambulance with her good friends Adley and Lily.

First she had to weigh the baby.

Then stock pile all the babies. Hmmm...not sure what this means.

We also did a little grocery shopping there.

And of course hit the 3D movie in a mini IMAX like theatre. Very cool. Addie didn't even freak out for the entire show. Impressive. She did however take off these super trendy glasses as soon as she could get her hands on them.

Last week we had her first Christmas program at the church. So cute.

Pretty much the entire time she pointed to all of us watching her in the audience, saying "Mama...Mimi". And making sure to let her teacher behind her know exactly where we were.
Funny :)

Uncle Ryan came to the big show. I remember the days that I went to his programs. Mostly talent shows of him singing Back Street Boys. Fun times :) Oh, how you've grown Uncle Ryan.

Addie has been helping decorate the house. Grandma gave her some window stickers, which in my book is currently the greatest invention ever. That girl will play with them for hours!

We also went and saw Santa. Not exactly a favorite of Addie's. She screamed bloody murder. Hopefully I will get the pic scanned and up on the blog. Hilarious!

So after the scary Santa, she went over to this HUGE dog in the store we were at and pretty much begged for it...with her puppy dog face and all. We recently had to put our dog Stewart down, so Isaac and I became the sucker parents and let her have it. I know, terrible, but ever since we said goodbye to "old man" Stewart, she walks in the house and says, "dog..dog...dog". How sad is that. We miss Stewart, he was with us since we got married. For now we will all have to love on the big fluffy stuffed animal dog that Addie has fallen in love with.
