Oh Addison!

Ok, on Wednesday Grandma left. We are so thankful that she was able to come stay with us! It was a great help to have her here and Addison was her shadow!!! She didn't want me to do anything for her, it was always "No! Dramma do it!" Well, of course I cried like a baby when she left and then decided that it might be safe to do my make-up. So my make-up was sitting on the bathroom counter when the phone rang! I was so excited that someone called to talk to me! As I was chatting in the living room, Addison was in the bathroom. She came out once with her eye covered and hurried back into the bathroom. I didn't really think too much about it, and finished my call!

I should have figured she was up to something! Let's just say that this girl has talent with the mascara! She got all of her top lashes and most of the bottom! But what made it really lovely was how she also got it all over her top and bottom eyelid! ALL OVER! She must have reapplied a few times because it was quite thick! I just laughed and said I needed to take her picture. Then I went into the bathroom...

This was done with my liquid eyeliner on the bathroom counter, she also drew on the toilet lid with it! Then she dug in my eyeshadow with her fingers and wiped them down the wall. All in all, I think this proved that I can't handle 4 kids and Grandma went home too soon. But now that it's Friday and we've been without her for 2 days I think we'll survive. Although whenever she(or anyone else) wants to come and visit(help) I say the more the merrier!

He's here

We finally did it! Nathan Paul Nelson decided to be nice to me and join us on Dec. 6th! He took long enough to get here(a long night at the hospital waiting and waiting and waiting!), butI'm so thankful he's here! He weighed in at a whopping 7lbs even and was 19 1/2" long. He has more hair than any of his sisters did(not saying much) and at first had a reddish tint! But now that he's home and trying to turn yellow, his hair is blonde! I think that he resembles Emma the most, but then he still just looks kind of like a little old man to me right now! He still doesn't think night time is for sleeping without me, but then a few days ago he didn't think I should sleep much at night time either, only difference is that a few days ago I could ignore him and go back to sleep and he couldn't wake any of us up by screaming!

But we are all thankful for him and trying to adjust to having a baby boy in the house (diaper changes are a strange thing). His sisters are loving (and mostly ignoring) him and his biggest sister Kassidy just loves to hold him!
