More than a pillow

I am loving this baby stage that is now full of laughing, cooing and "talking."  When Addilyn just started doing these things consistently a week or so ago Chris and I would feel so proud of ourselves when we'd get her to laugh or talk on and on.  I'd get this feeling of accomplishment and pride, knowing I could make her ramble on and on with a huge smile. 
That is until the other day when I was sitting on the floor holding her over my shoulder and she started laughing and talking.  I quickly realized that she was extremely amused with the pillow on our couch and it got the same reaction as all my antics.  

So basically I went from feeling like Addilyn thinks I'm the funniest person in the world to feeling on the same level as a pillow. 

Dear Lauren,

top: target   pants: old navy   shoes: kohls   necklace: groopdealz

I loved this tank top so much that I bought a shirt just like it from Target.  For only $6 I'm wishing I bought it in other colors.  
I think your son has the best dance moves of anyone.  I sure hope he can teach Addilyn how to shake her booty.   

On the other hand I hope that Lena does NOT teach Addilyn her poor sleeping skills.  While this facebook status of yours gave me a chuckle, I know that you were not laughing about it at the time: 
Lena is refusing to go to sleep. She gets mad, takes off her clothes, throws them across the room, and crawls out of her crib and runs into the hallway. We put her back in bed. On repeat. Literally for hours. Someday this story will probably amuse me greatly. Not today folks, not today.
I got the cutest headband for Addilyn last week and think you need one for Lena.  I've wanted her to have one of these turban style headbands for awhile and was so happy to find this one from the etsy shop AzyMae. 

Her headbands are so cute, plus much cheaper than a lot I've seen.  This one is only $6.50 and you can use code LaurenandLauren and get 10% off.  I want Addilyn to own this one and these ones too. 

I have always wished that you lived here, but since having a baby I wish it even more.   Only two more weeks until you come here.  Addilyn can't wait to met you and her cousins! 

I love you Lauren!
Love,
