Addy's Love!

This last week Lauren, Ellie and Morgan came to visit!! And we had a blast, especially Addy. Addy is THE most loving little girl. She is not satisfied until she has had her quota of about 20 kisses and hugs for the day, and at least another five or ten before she hits the sack. But when ever there are any other little kiddos around she thinks hugs and kisses should be given at 10 second increment's for five minutes straight, pause to survey her surroundings then continue the love fest! So here is Derek, Addy and Morgan and Addy loving on Morgan. (Morgan is such a good sport!!)

Sleeping Beauty

Addy LOVES to "help" her daddy mow the lawn, apparently she was a little tuckered out from the season of all that work, so on Derek's last lawn mow of the season, Addy thought she deserved a break and yes, fell asleep on his lap as he mowed the lawn.

Addy glows with painted toes!

I was giving my toes a much needed paint job yesterday, and that is definitely something you can't do without a 14 month old noticing. I've always wanted to paint her toes but have been to afraid of the mess and the wiggles that come with a 14 month, curious little girl. But lo and behold she came over to me when I was finished and put her foot in my hands. I took that as an open invitation as "momma beautify me!" And so I proceeded. The end result is something that never will pass on a state board, but in the eyes of Addy, "I am just like mom" and that's pretty cool. (Well at least for now.)

It's beginning to look a lot like...October?

So...for those of you who don't know, it snowed here in the land of Idaho. Pretty exciting stuff for little Addy who thinks the outdoors is the greatest thing since Cream of Wheat (the love of her life). I took Addy out exploring and much to her dismay...it's cold stuff, but it sure tastes good!
