Easter 2009

Woods Cross City put on a great Easter party. They had a lot of free activities and the Easter Bunny came.

Twinkle Toes.

Addisons new slippers.

Addisons 2nd Birthday

Uncle Sean got her this great little chair. Cousin Zach wanted to help open her presents.

It just wouldn't be a birthday without cake smashed all over her face.

St. George 2009

Addison loved the pool we had to keep her within arms length at all times because she was not afraid to jump in by herself.

Our last night Byron let me get some sushi it was delish. He was not a fan but I loved it.

Shadows

Addison has had a hard time going to sleep at night. I could not figure out what the problem was. I thought is could be her teeth or maybe just another power struggle.

Until tonight.

After her usual nightly routine I turned off her light and was giving her kisses when I noticed her look up at the ceiling and then cower into me. It then occurred to me that the night light was making shadow's on her ceiling. The poor little thing has been scared of her own SHADOW.

Quickly realizing what the problem was I turned on the Ikea flower light. With more light there were less shadows. When she realized that she laid down in her crib without much of a fuss. She then took a quick glance at the ceiling to make sure they were gone pulled the blanket over her head and went to sleep.

My guilty mommy moment is that it took me well over two weeks(maybe more) to figure this out.

The poor poor little thing.

SNOW DAY

When we have a big enough snow storm Byron loves to be the big man in the neighborhood and plow out the neighbors. Addison of course has to come along but she loves it.

Christmas 2008

Christmas 2008

I know its a little late but, better now then never.

As with tradition Addison got to open one present on Christmas Eve. It was a baby doll. She loved it she put it in her shipping cart and pushed it all over the house then fed her milk.

Christmas Morning

She was so excited to find out there were toys underneath the wrapping paper. She had a blast opening her gifts. Grandma Hansen gave her a Little People nativity set that she loved but her favorite present was the big bag of Mega Blocks.

After a long nap we went to visit the family. Grandma Vickie and Grandpa were first. They played with lots of fun toys. We had a great visit.

Next came Grandma Rodgers and the uncles.

As always it comes and goes so quickly but all in all it was a great day.
