SNOW!!!

Yesterday, Addy modeled a polka dot long sleeved shirt with cute pink jumper.

Yesterday was a good, busy day. We did laundry and some cleaning. Addy was in a good mood and extra playful. Daddy came home early, because of all the snow coming :) We decided to take Addy out for her first time playing in the snow (even though it had only just started snowing):


She was a little confused as to why she was dressed so warm, until we went out. We took her sledding, which she didn't care about, one way or another. But then she got to eat some of the snow-that she loved :) After that, it was bedtime in her new pjs:


Then, this morning we went back outside, after most of the snow had fallen, about 3 inches total. She was less than thrilled, but we had fun!


Today, daddy worked from home, so we tried not to bug him too much. We did a lot of playing, as usual. Our little girl is definitely growing up, and out of much of her stuff: her bouncy chair, the bumbo, her size 6 mo. clothes, her stage 1 foods, her size 1-2 diapers (she has to wear the next size up at night-the little ones can't hold it all!). She's getting close to outgrowing her bath sling too, so I'll have to wash her hair while she sits up :/ not looking forward to that! Soon she'll outgrow Toby, and we'll have to buy her a new pony :)

Taking down the decorations

Yesterday, Addy modeled her new sweats over her Colts outfit.

We spent the day taking down Christmas decorations inside. It's sad that Christmas is over, but I'm ready to finish decorating our house....finally. That is the next challenge.


We also set up a children under 3 cage. May come in very useful some days :) We will also not speak about what we did last night. We are still in mourning :(



Today, Addy was a Gap model in her dress, shoes and hoodie.

Today we went to church, but it was past Addy's naptime, so she was struggling toward the end of church. If the announcements wouldn't have gone so long, we would have been just fine. We went to Panera, where I ruined my diet for the day, took down Christmas lights outside, hung up some sports stuff on the basement walls, made homemade baby food (don't try it-too much work, and she didn't even like it that much!) and relaxed. Addy only took the one nap today, so she went to bed early which was nice. She also woke up today at 8:30! Amazing...:) I did lose 2 pounds of holiday weight in this first week-Seester, you are going down!!!

SNOW...sort of

Today, Addy is modeling a blue shirt with white jumper and pink boots. And I am modeling my new t-shirt and my fabulous new hairdo, thanks to Katelyn!

Too bad the snow melted the second it hit the ground. It snowed ALL day, but still barely a dusting on the grass. So sad :(

Today, Addy and I went to Little Lambs. It was freeeezing in the nursery, but the rest was fun. Addy had her first snack with the group too. She looked so cute sitting in her toddler chair at the very short table :) Then we came home and played like usual. She pulled up on me a few times today again, and she even accidentally let out a whistle. It was very short, and she didn't do it again, but it sure was cool.

This afternoon, we saw Toby sitting at the back door looking out. He was shaking, almost like he was cold. He glanced at us for a second, then went back to looking outside. I went over to the window, and there he was, a squirrel, sitting in our tree looking right at Toby enjoying an acorn. I released Toby, and they both went running, at crazy speeds!! It was pretty amusing to watch.

"...time to put something in my tummy"

Today, Addy is modeling an Old Navy ensemble, shirt, jean skirt and ruffly socks.

So today we've been playing with her kitchen...just a little, as you can see from the title. She likes to go back and forth between two songs by playing with two different things. Usually she doesn't let the song finish, and sometimes it barely starts. Yea for noisy toys :\

Today we returned a few things and walked around the mall. I started doing the 10K steps challenge with my new pedometer. I didn't come nearly as close as I thought I would. We'll have to try again tomorrow! Addy has started smacking her lips. It's pretty funny to watch :) She's also trying to pull up on her own. We'll keep working on it...

Still Recovering!

Today starts the weeks of wearing all the new clothes Addy got for Christmas. Here she is modeling a "Little Princess" one piece outfit with a double skirt :) as well as Christmas socks!

Today, daddy worked from home, so we tried not to bug him too much :) We did a lot of playing and unpacking, still. We also went to the grocery store to buy lots of healthy food. Josh and I are going to win the weight challenge!! Then, Addy woke up a little too early from her nap, so she helped me with the dishes:

Christmas Pics

As you have seen, I posted my Christmas pics to Snapfish. When you look at them, be sure to hit slideshow, and then show captions in the lower right corner. Enjoy! We sure had fun, but now we are still unpacking and settling in. Welcome 2011!
