All Addi Wants for Christmas...

Knight Family Christmas Card 2013...

 I am SO in love with our Christmas Card this year. As I'm sure you could guess, it's all because of the sweet little angel who is featured on the front of our card...

We went with VERY simple this year...mainly because I think the pictures say it all.

It REALLY is a wonderful life!!!

Sweetest Giggles...

I don't think I've laughed as much as I have these past 10 months since Addison came along. This is her giggling as Mommy was dancing around the kitchen...

And this next video NEVER gets old!!!

Sweetest giggles EVER!!!

More of Missy Mistletoe's Lessons...

Missy Mistletoe the Elf has been very busy teaching Addison all about the true meaning of Christmas and special lessons to be a good person. 

On December 5, Missy taught Addison that she should start saving her money...

On December 6, Missy reminded Addison that she is very pretty...with or without her hairbows :)

On December 7, Missy told Addison that she should love all types of animals...

And on December 8, Missy reminded Addison to share with her friends...

We love having Missy Misteltoe with us this December, we wonder what other lessons she has in store for Addison?!?!

Happy Birthday Addison: 10 Months

Dear Addison Kate,

On December 2nd you turned 10 months old. We can't believe that your first birthday will happen in just two short months!!! You are (and will always be) our greatest gift and we enjoy watching you learn, explore, and smile every day.

You laugh is contagious and it doesn't take much for your to smile. We still can't believe how happy a baby you are :)

You are starting to slim up, as you are getting taller. We cant wait to see how much you weigh and how tall you are at your next appointment.

You are not only crawling lightening fast, but you have started to pull up on everything and are very close to walking.

You are saying Dada and Momma...which is the sweetest sound EVER. You wave bye-bye and hi, play patti cake, and even give high-fives! 

Your top two teeth have started to come in and that toothy smile is GORGEOUS!!

Happy 10 month birthday sweet Addi Kate!!!

We love you MORE than the world!!!

Missy Mistletoe the Elf...

We wanted to start a new tradition with Addison this year...the Elf on the Shelf. At first we thought she might be too young to understand how the Elf works, but now that our Elf has been visiting us for the past week, we think Addison enjoys waking up each morning and not only finding the Elf, but learning the lesson she has to share each day.

Our December 1st, Santa left the sweetest note and a special surprise for Addison...

You see, Missy Mistletoe is an EXTRA special Elf. While most Elves report back to Santa and share whether little boys and girls have been naughty or nice, Missy teaches Addison about the true meaning of Christmas and important lessons about being a good little girl.

 Addison really loves Missy Mistletoe and has the biggest smile each morning when she finds her. On December 2 we woke up to find Missy reading Addison's Bible and the story of Jesus' birth...

On December 3, Missy reminded Addison to always say her prayers before she goes to bed each night...

On December 4, Missy's lesson was to always eat your fruits and vegetables...

Missy Mistletoe is such a smart little Elf. We can't wait to see what other lessons she'll be teaching Addison this Christmas season!

Oh Christmas Tree...

The day after Thanksgiving we chose NOT to participate in Black Friday...but instead, purchased our Christmas tree and started decorating for the best Christmas yet!

We found the perfect tree...

We didn't realize just how big it actually was though until we got it home!!!

But we made it work and now we absolutely love it!

I still can't get over the fact that we have THREE stockings hanging from our mantel :)

This little Christmas baby fills our hearts with pure JOY!

I think that my favorite Christmas decoration so far is this little tree we put up in Addison's room...

It is simple and sweet...just like our little girl!

Being Thankful...

This Thanksgiving had a whole new meaning...now that we have Addison Kate in our lives. She means the world to us and we spent our first Thanksgiving as a family of three feeling thankful for our sweet angel.

We got up that morning, got our little turkey dressed, and headed to our family luncheon.

We decided to take a picture of the entire family because so many of them were able to attend...

We even had Kodi and McDuff in the picture this year!

SO thankful for this adorable and sweet girl...

I thank God every single day for my family of three...

What a fabulous Thanksgiving we had!
