Addison Enjoys. . .

Many things really, but here are a few that I have caught on camera.

Coloring with her markers. She does this left handed because when she pulls the cap off the marker is in her left hand.

Wearing dad's shoes, why ?

Getting into my draws and pulling out all of my hose.

Every day is an adventure

Fouth of July

This year we had an extra long weekend. We started celebrating on Friday at a ward member's home. They know how to through the best parties. It really reminds me of like a Riggs/Tomkinson Party. It was Big, Loud, Had lots of food and Great fireworks!! Sorry, no pictures from that, but we had a great time and Addison enjoyed the fireworks this year.

The next day we took a couple of young men to the drag races in Topeka. They were only semi-pro, but a ton of fun to watch. John got all excited when we saw the junior division. He started talking about how Addison is going to do that someday.

The leaders

We then went over to John's parent's and did some of our own fireworks. Of course this is mostly for the boys.

Overall it was a fun weekend, but I'm glad to have Addison back on her regular sleep schedule.

For Amy

The other day I turned on some music while watching the kids and it turned into a fun little dance session. Yesterday while at Home Depot looking for paint, a Madonna song came on. Addison started dancing, making several people laugh. I thought of you both times Amy.

Finally

Ok, so we finally got a new card reader and here are some long over due pictures for everyone.

Totally reminds me of Amy pictures

Haircut

You want to do something really fun? Cut a very active 18 month old's hair. I have never cut hair before, but Addison's was just getting too long. I have had many in my life and have learned a few things from watching Sara. I was also inspired by a friend who has a daughter about the same age. So I tried. 2 Popsicles later I completed the task. She just would not sit still, not that I was expecting much better. John was a little nervouse when I told him what I did. It looks ok though, so I will keep doing it until she demands a professional, or we move closer to Sara and I can bribe her with cheesecake.

Sick Again

This time with an almost ear infection. Well he said it was red and irritated and gave us amoxicilline (and yes, I had to look on the bottle to make sure I spelt it right). Smelling that stuff brought back a whole sloo of memories. I totally remember taking it as a kid.

And as far as pictures, I can't down load them right now. Electronic devices hate me. That is why I keep my phone as just a phone, not a camera/pda/mp3 player, and oh, I guess we should through the phone in too.

Field Trip

Addison and I went to AIB to visit with my former co-workers. It was good to see everyone and catch up a little. Here is a picture that Renee took.
