Snow Days

Has really loved this weekend! We got a whopping 5 in. of snow. It has been great just to relax and not have get out of our pj's. We spent some time with some good friends of ours this weekend and had a wonderful time. Addyson got to play in the snow for the first time. She seemed to like it, but couldn't stay out in it to long because it was so cold. Had a little touch of Cabin fever from being inside the house since friday afternoon, so we got out tonight and ate supper with mom and dad. Glad we got to spend time with them too!

Babies, Kitchen, and Magna-doodles: A Few of Our Favorite Toys

Addyson is loving playing in her room with all of her toys. She especially loves three of her toys. Her baby is defenitley number one on her list. She loves to feed her baby her bottle. Her kitchen is another one of her faves right now. She loves to cook for mommy and daddy and any one else that comes to visit. And last but not least she likes to draw on her magna-doodle. She always has such a beautiful picture drawn on it. She loves playing in her room so much. It really shows when ever she gets done because it is a  mess  disaster, but she knows the routine that we do not go to bed without cleaning up all of her toys!  

Thankful For Healthiness

Man has today been one crazy day. I took Addyson to the doctor for her checkup and she got 3 shots. The doctor said that she was a healthy girl. She weighs 25lbs. and 15 ozs.and her height is 31". Man has she came a long way from being a little bit under weight. So glad that she is average now! I promised her that we would go to Chick-fil-a after she got done. You know she loves that place, it is her favorite! After leaving the doctor today I could not help but think about how thankful that I am for such a healthy baby girl! God has been so good to us. He has given us this amazing and very smart girl. She exceeds my expectations of what I thought that she was going to be like.  God made her just the way that he intented. I just love every piece of her. He sure did a good job. We will be going to the oral surgeon next friday. Addyson will more than likely be having surgery. Praying that everything will go well. It is a very routine thing but just makes me a little nervous being the mommy.

Psalm 139:14  "I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are your works, and my soul knows very well."

Addyson at 16 Months

I can't believe that she is already 16 months old. She is almost half way to 2! She is learning new words and new things every second. I am amazed by how much she knows. She is such a smart girl.

• Learned to open doors



• is a little bit frustrated because she is very smart and wants to do things on her own. Very independent, we are trying to figure out where she gets that from. ; )



• New words: Please, Thank you, Hi Teddy, Sit (that is what she tells the dogs) Jaden, go, Hello, Potty, Breakfast, Myla, and many more that I have forgot to write down!



• Loves wafer cookies so much that she comes and gets mommy and daddy by the hand and takes us in the kitchen and points to the cabinet they are in.



• Had her second Christmas and loved opening all of her gifts. She had to make sure every last bit of paper was off of the gift before going on to the next one.



• She learned how to pray. It is the cutest thing. She has to hold Mommy and Daddy's hands while she does it.
  
  
• Learned how to sword fight from her friend Jaden.



• We got rid of the paci...



• Discovered that her frenum ( also known as the peice of gum that attatches above your upper lip) is very low and she will more than likely have to have surgery.


• Is learning how to sing Deep and Wide
• Dances and you can't help laugh because it is so adorable.
• She has 6 teeth now: 4 on the bottom and 2 on the top
• Spent her New Years Eve sleeping while her friend Daniel was up partying.
• You have to have a pillow in your bed to go to sleep at night.
• In the mornings you hand me your blanket and pillow before you get out of the bed
• She loves to sit on the potty

Hope you enjoy the video of Addyson dancing!

Eating like a big girl at the coffee table..

Well we spent the last few hours of 2009 with some good friends. We ate lots of good food, and played some Rook and just had a good time! I have been reflecting back on the past year and how God has truly blessed our lives in so many different ways. I am looking forward to this next year! Can't wait to see what is in store for 2010. : )
