august is almost over

so this past weekend was filled of greatness.  the hubby and i celebrated our 5 year anniversary, addi turned 7 months and we went to the Greek festival.

so hubby and i celebrated our anniversary a day early.  my sister came over and watched the girls so we could go on a date.  we still didn't know what we were going to do but no worries, my sister had a great present for us!  she got us an hour long couples massage.  it was just what we needed to take our minds off of life and just relax.  we then went to dinner at Upstream and had their artichoke dip and split the greek pizza.  and for dessert we had lemon whoopie pie and tres leches cake.  it was all amazing and we enjoyed every second of our date night.  we're so excited to see what the next 5 years brings us! here's one of my favorite pictures from our wedding: 

i can't believe that addi is already 7 months.  did i sleep away the past few months, where did my little baby go?!?!  she has grown so much in the past couple of months.  she is sitting up like a pro, rolling to her belly and loves to eat "solids".  right now we're learning sign language to teach her to say "more" "food" and "milk".  i'll also be throwing in a couple more signs as we go.  the past couple of days it looks like she's trying to sign "food" while we're eating.  another big and exciting thing: she's sleeping in her crib and falling asleep on her own!!  i'm amazed at how well she's doing and holding my breath, i don't want to jinx it.

on sunday we went to the Greek festival and it was so much fun!  we had AMAZING food and drinks!!  they had pony rides and a jump house for the kids.  we let emma ride a pony but she's still to little for the jump house.  emma just LOVED riding the pony and cried when her turn was over.  her pony had to go to the bathroom and emma was very patient while he went potty.  i didn't think she noticed that he was going poo.  we told my sister that emma got to ride a pony and then emma told her that she "rode the horse and he went poopy"  hahaha!!!  she has such a great memory!!
