Happy First Father's Day!

The Grant Gang was up to another fun-filled weekend this Father's Day weekend. There is always something going on with this gang!

Addison loves her Daddy so much that she wanted the celebrations to last more than just one day!

  • Thursday she gave Matthew a case to hold his new external hard drive.
  • Friday Addison and I made Matthew rice crispy treats. We surprised him with them when he came home from work!
  • Saturday we spent some time as a family swimming at the pool.
  • Sunday Addison gave Matthew a card and dressed up in a new outfit especially picked out for Father's day. AND we did a round two batch of rice crispy treats :)
Happy FIRST Father's day Matthew! Addison is very lucky to have a Daddy who loves her so much. I love watching you with her, especially when she looks up at you with her Angel Eyes. Bath time has become my favorite time because I can sit back and watch you enjoy your daughter!! I have so much fun being a parent with you. We both love you!!

Her shirt says "I Love Daddy". I had bought a different one in the 3 month size a few weeks before, but she was too long for it. This is a different style one but 6 month size---as you can see it's already a lil short :) WOW!!

Swim Suit Fashion Show

We have been on the hunt for a "surfer style" swim suit for Addison. Seems like all I could find for the 6 month size are bikinis. FINALLY I was able to find one at Old Navy. This one is snug on her growing tummy, but the next size up was 6-12 months and would have floated up when she got wet in the pool. With her new suit, she is now covered up and protected from the sun; its 50 SPF everywhere on the suit! Not to mention----the sunscreen will be easier to put on :) Now I just have to find a float!

Man we love that sweet face!

You can see the ruffles on the bottoms in this one

Angel Eyes!

Happy Birthday Matthew!

We did a little celebration at home for Matthew's Birthday. We enjoyed a Sponge Bob Square Pants themed dinner and cupcakes!!! We watch Sponge Bob Square Pants on Saturday mornings together as a family, so it was only fitting that we theme a birthday as such!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet husband...I am glad you were born on June 9 :) I love you more everyday!

On the menu: Ham Steak, homemade mac and cheese, sauteed green beans and of course...BREAD (Matthew LOVES bread). Thanks Mia...this is definitely a meal inspired by your recipes and teaching!

Addison joined in on the birthday fun too! She is always a good baby, but she was EXCEPTIONAL yesterday...it was like her gift to Daddy was being extra sweet!

Going To Sleep

Ok I couldn't resist sharing this precious video!! This is how Addison puts herself to sleep...looking at her fishy scene and just a cooing! We love her so much, she is just so sweet...we are so blessed!
