Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween...

We took Addi to Disney again, but this time for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween! We had an absolute BLAST!!!

Addi wanted to be a "wicked witch" but unfortunately it was pretty hot in Florida, so she only wore her costume and hat all of 45 minutes. 


She enjoyed Mickey's Philharmagic show again this time and tried to grab all the items flying around...


One of Daddy's highlights on this trip was Addi's love of roller coasters. We road Goofy's Barnstormer at least three times...


Mommy's highlight of the trip was watching Addi in amazement of Cinderella. I mean look at this sweet girl's face as she is looking at Cinderella...


One of Addi's favorite Disney movies is Tangled and she couldn't wait to tell Rapunzel to "let down your hair!" But as you can see in the picture, she got a little shy and didn't say a word :)


We just recently watched Tinkerbell and explained to Addi that she lights the castle up each night at Disney...


Again, more carousel fun...


One of the last things we did before we left was ride the Seven Dwarf's roller coaster. Addi called a tummy tickler :)


It truly is the most magical place!

Happy Birthday Addison: 32 Months

This month Addi Kate turned 32 months. It is SO crazy how grown up she seems to us right now. She has full on conversations with us (and herself sometimes). She can say the Pledge of Allegiance, the months of the year, and can even count in Spanish (1-6). 


She dances NON -STOP!!! I am so ready to enroll her in dance classes. She loves princesses...Cinderella, Snow White, Belle, Ariel, Merida, and of course, Elsa and Anna. She likes to draw, paint, and create things with playdoh. 

Here is Addi saying the months of the year...




Addi loves the park, especially the one in St. Augustine with the carousel.


And I just have to mention her hair...it is still as blonde as can be and gets prettier and prettier...


Addi still loves ALL animals...


And we've learned that she has her Daddy's sensitivity to smells. She's started telling us when she doesn't like the smell of something and her nose is OVERLY sensitive. Like when we went to the petting zoo and she caught a small of the chickens...


I still get tickled when I see this picture!!

Addi is at least 38 inches tall and continues to grow like a weed...



It's amazing how lucky we are. God really showed off with this little one!

Happy Birthday Addison Kate!

We love you MORE than the world!

I Pledge Allegiance...

Since Memorial Day we have been working on teaching Addi Kate how to say the Pledge of Allegiance. It only took about a week and now she has it down pat. It's amazing how fast she can say it :)



Every time we see a flag, Addi recites the pledge...smart AND patriotic!!!

Big Girl Bed...

So we finally made the move...we changed Addi Kate's bed to a toddler bed!!!


She was THRILLED!! She jumped on her bed, read books in her bed, and even fell asleep pretty easily the first night.




The first night she slept until 1:30 a.m. and then she made her way into our room. But not until she found a green sharpie, and wrote all over her legs, her  face, AND the wall!!! 

Oh my...not sure we are ready for the big girl bed!!!

Random Fun Times...

Our schedule ALWAYS seems to be packed, but at least it's packed with fun times...


We had a great time at a friend's birthday party...it was bouncy house overload!


The chocolate cupcake was pretty awesome too!


Another fun activity that she enjoyed was a visit from the local fire department. Addi Kate's school arranged the visit and the kids loved it!


We also took Addi bowling for the first time. 
She bowled a few times but decided that she' rather to the loud music they were playing. 

That's my girl!

Ten Year Anniversary Trip..

This year we celebrated our 10 year anniversary and planned a cruise to the Bahamas. We had such a great time...


It was a MUCH needed trip for the two of us...


And it was also the first trip we've taken WITHOUT Addison...


FIVE days without seeing our little girl...


But clearly, she didn't miss us one bit!!!!

She's the sweetest little witch I've EVER seen!!!

Welcome October and bring on Halloween!

Such a fun weekend!

Happy Birthday Addison 29-31 months

I have been so busy and absolutely forgot about updating Addison's blog!!! Bad Mom Alert!!!

So I'm going to play catch-up for a few weeks to ensure we have everything recorded.

Our baby girl is already 32 months old!!!! Here are her monthly photos from months 29-31...





She's always been beautiful to me, but she just keeps getting prettier the older she gets. That hair, those blue eyes, and that sweet little face...

Blessed, we are blessed!
