Addy celebrated her first 4th of July this past weekend. Her Grandma and Grandpa Schum, Aunt Ashley, and Uncle Brian came to visit for a few days to celebrate with us. Addy loved all of the ongoing attention she received from her family. She took a trip to IKEA with her mommy, Grandma, and aunt Ashley. She was a good girl and enjoyed watching her aunt Ashley shop til' she dropped! On Friday we had a cookout at our house. Addy loved watching the sparklers and even laughed out loud. Saturday we all took a trip to Missouri and ate at Lambert's, which is the home of throwed rolls. We were very thankful that Addy didn't get hit by any flying rolls, although her Daddy did end up with pieces of a roll on his head! Addy's second overnight stay in a hotel went MUCH smoother than the first; she slept through the night. She also got to go swimming in the hotel pool. The water was a bit chilly, but she didn't seem to mind. On Sunday we stopped at St. Louis for Addy's first trip to the zoo. We only stayed for a few hours, but Addy really enjoyed the animals. She laughed out loud at the bears and loved looking at the fish. She also had her first ride on a carousel. She was so tired after all of this excitement that she slept 9 hours on Sunday night.

Addy loved watching the sparklers!

Hey Addy,
I heard you drank your bottle down in ten minutes yesterday. That is a record. Keep going girl. Was that roll good? What are you and your mom going to do this long weekend. Remember to be nice to Mom.
Love,
Grandma F
hmmm...that's odd. I thought there were some other visitors on the 4th of July that Addy would want to mention on the blog as well...
