This is Addison Nicole Niehues. She was born on February 5, 2008 and weighed 6 lbs. 3 oz. We are so blessed to have her. She has definitely changed our household in the short amount of time that she's been here. First of all, there is pink everywhere! I am having a good time with all the pink clothes for girls. Kyle is adjusting to the added noise and commotion. He's very good at blocking out things that he doesn't want to hear, including..."Did you get your homework done?" He has asked me several times if she is ever going to talk. I can just imagine in a few years him asking, "Is she ever going to be quiet?!" Bob is already smitten by his little girl. She will be tightly wrapped around his fingers in no time at all. Addison loves to be held so I am happy to oblige. We spend a lot of time watching the Food Network and reading books. She is truly a joy!
But don't expect me to sit around for long. As soon as I recover from some serious sleep deprivation Addison & I will be heading up to my scrapbook room to work! I am so excited about SCRAP ST. LOUIS which I will be teaching at on June 5 - 7, 2008. I love the For Keeps Sake girls! They really know how to host an event and their store is fabulous. If you are ever in the St. Louis area this is a MUST stop! And if you're fortunate enough to be there for SCRAP ST. LOUIS, I'll see you then!
Always love to see "Miss Pinky"!! Great picture!

Congrats! What a beauty. My daughter and I became big fans of Giada and "Pawla Deeeeeen" when my son was born (almost 18 months ago). Afternoon nursing time always seemed to coincide with their shows ;)

Congratulations, Tracey! What a beautiful little girl you have been blessed with. Can't wait to see you in St. Louis - we have tons of pink here, you know. I'll have to take you to Puddle Ducks when you're in town.

Congratulations Tracey! Oh my goodness, she is absolutely beautiful. I'll bet your mom is beside herself as well. You will fall in love with Puddle Ducks. I can't wait to see you and the rest of our KC girls in Jun. Til then, snuggle up with that beautiful baby girl and enjoy every moment.
