The Hodge Family: 11 Months Old!

Hi Everyone,

I can't believe Addison is almost a year old. Time is flying by fast. Addison has been showing us something new pretty much every day. She sings and rocks her stuffed animals to bed. She has a name for every single one of them. She really likes her doctor sues doll that she calls Mop. She understands simple commands like: shut the door, turn off the light, no, can I have that, put it in here, lets go, time to eat, hi, bye, kiss, etc. She blows kisses and gives hugs. She waves and says hi and bye. She points out airplanes and birds in the sky. When we go on walks or get the mail she waves enthusiastically to every car and person that passes bye. The neighbors love her welcoming them home from work. One thing Tim and I really love watching is her dancing. She shakes her hips from side to side and wiggles her shoulders to anything and everything. She moves to her toys that make music, mommy and daddy singing or humming, and even little spurts from commercials on TV.

Addison is learning how to feed herself with a spoon. Here she is with her green beans.

She is on the verge of walking all by herself. She cruises along the furniture and loves to push her stroller and the kitchen chairs around. Here she is a few weeks back pushing a chair while daddy and I got get her stuff ready for school.

Here is Addison a couple of nights ago rowing the boat and taking in some fresh air before bed.

Here are few more cute pictures from the last month or so...
