Christmas Eve at the Mocniak's (Grandma and Grandpa's)

This being Addison's first Christmas we weren't sure what to do and since she is only 5 months old we decided the Santa thing could wait until next year so we spent Christmas Eve with Keith's Family and then flew to Tulsa Christmas Day to spend it with mine. Christmas Eve was full of lots of Gifts and as you can see Addison was not lacking in that department. She got more than we and she could ever imagine.

Mammy comes to visit

Keith had to travel to Seattle and tickets were cheap so my mom decided she would take some much needed time off work and come to Florida for the week to help out. The day before she was supposed to come the worst ice storm in Oklahoma's history hit Tulsa and most of the towns power was out including the airport. I was able to get her a flight out that day, the only problem was it was out of Arkansas. So my dad drove her to Arkansas and she got to Florida and out of the cold and powerless town. The good part was my dad was able to find a wal-mart that had flashlights and blankets and emergency supplies without the crowd and they hunkered down to stay warm.

The Stuffed Animals take over!

We took Addison down to her Grandparents to see their Christmas decorations and Grandma Jan had been wanting to place her in all their stuffed animals and take a picture....Well it turned into an invasion of the fluffy kind!

Addison meets Santa

We took Addison to the Mall at Millenia in Orlando to meet Santa. Before we got there we decided that we were only going to buy one picture just to prove she had met him. When we got there we waited about an hour and then it was her turn, I was so nervous because they wanted Santa to hold her,but of course she just took to him right away. She giggled and smiled and listened to Santa. We then went to checkout and pick our one picture but, they only showed us two pictures to choose from or we could buy the whole session on a disc for and additional $35. Of course she was perfect so we bought the whole disc. SUCKERS!!!! Who could blame us!

Addison's 1st Thanksgiving

Addison's first Thanksgiving was great. She sat up in the high chair like a big girl, went to town on the turkey leg and ate Sweet potatoes for the first time and loved them. Which is more than I can say for myself. And of course she was the center of attention!

Addison Sees the Specticle of Lights at Disney Hollywood Studios

We went to Disney the weekend before Thanksgiving to see the lights! Addison was intrigued. Grandpa Ken show her all the lights up close and Grandma Jan held her while it "snowed"!

Addison visits Mammy and Grandad in Oklahoma

Addison and I took a trip to Tulsa! She did so great on the plane. She met her Great Grammie and Great Grandad in Stillwater she even got an Eskimo Joes shirt but it had to be Orange, her Gran-Nana in Tulsa and her uncle Lander!! They really enjoyed having her there. She loved being held by Aunt Emily, Mammy, Grandad and Malyke, and when things got Fussy mammy came to the rescue with a warm bath. Grandad had lots of hugs and kisses for her, when he got to hold her that is. She experienced cold weather and she seemed to love it. We had lots of fun and can't wait to go back for Christmas.

Aunt Jen comes to visit

This past weekend Aunt Jen came over to visit from Tampa. Addison had such a ball. Saturday night we had Chris, Karen, Chad, Nicky and Gabe over. Addison got to eat cookie dough(not really), flirt with Gabe and stay up late. It was so fun for her that she slept til 8am! Mom and Dad had a fun time too. Sunday morning she had quality giggling time with Aunt Jen before we took her to Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival. After stopping crowds in her baby Bjorn, she ate in Italy and mom ate everywhere else. We learned that she doesn't like cabbage rolls or maybe the potato pancakes. It hopefully isn't the Cheddar Cheese soup from Canada cause that is mommy's favorite. Addison really enjoyed the weekend with her aunt Jen and can't wait to see her again.
