Happy Thanksgiving

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We were at my parents house and it was really nice relaxing day. Addy was of course a joy and loved being with her Aunts,Uncle, Nonna and Grandpa. We helped my mom put up Christmas decorations and then had a wonderful meal. Instead of watching a Christmas movie we watched Faith Hill's Christmas Special. I was excited to watch it again because that was the same concert that Jay had gotten tickets to. All and all it was a wonderful day. We have so many wonderful things to be Thankful for.

Feeling Under The Weather

Addy and I have caught a little cold and it is not fun at all. I am hoping we feel better soon because I hate just staying home. Being sick when you have a 2 year old sick isn't as easy as before. I was able to nap yesterday when she napped so that was at least good. I am hoping we feel better by Thanksgiving.

First Christmas Cookie Baking of the year

Last Friday Addy and I were at my moms and she was needing to bake some cookies for her night at her parents house so she asked Addy and I to help. It was pretty interesting. She loved shaking the sprinkles on, but then after thought she could just take a bite of the cookies as they were. She was cracking us up. Addy is really going to love when we make a lot of Christmas cookies. We might need to bake when Auntie Em and Zia are home to help out. Enjoy the pictures!

Bradley Girls

Today Addy and I drove up to Jonna's house to have a get together. I was so happy that everyone was able to make it. Addy enjoyed playing with Evie and Alyvia. We tried to get some good pictures of the girls, but you know kids at that age. We had a blast and thank Jonna for hosting it at her house. I hope we can get together again soon!

Holiday Lite

Many of you know how much I LOVE Christmas time so I was so excited to hear that the Lite is now the Holiday lite playing Christmas music all day and night long! I have the music playing in the house and in my care. Listening to Christmas music definitely keeps me in a great mood and gets me excited for the Holiday season. I am excited how Addy is going to react this year. Stores already have their Christmas decorations up and she loves looking at all the trees. I can tell that this Christmas is going to be a lot of fun just watching Addy experience everything! So if you are feeling a little down or want to start feeling in the Holiday spirit tune to the Holiday lite 93.9!!

Slippers

Addy found slippers that my mom and sister bought her and she LOVES them. She wants to put them on all the time. Here are some pictures of her showing them off.

Playing Dress Up

Addy and I went over to Arlyn's house today and Mya wanted to play dress up. She wanted Addy to dress up too so Addy willing joined in with the dress up. She was too cute for words. She also wanted to wear Mya's princess Ariel's shoes. She was running wearing them better than I can high heals. I have a feeling dress up time is just beginning with her. Like always we had a great time at Arlyn's house. She is certainly one of my closest friends and we always have such a good time together. She is expecting her 3rd child in May. I am so happy for her! Enjoy the pictures!

Celebrating Birthdays

Last night we celebrated my Dad's birthday with homemade pizza and a relaxing evening at my parents house. It was so nice. Addy gave Grandpa his birthday cards and presents and loved helping him blow out his candles. She was also playing and being silly with her Aunti Katie or Zia as she calls her. Aunti Em was home too and Addy now says "EM" whenever she sees her or her picture. She is saying more and more every day. Just recently she started showing some interest in the potty which is a big step for sure. We are just taking it one day at a time, although we are very proud of her.

Enjoying the weather

Last week we had some really nice weather. We couldn't even believe that it was November. These are some pictures of Addy enjoying the last warm days of the year.

Iowa Wedding

So I said I was going to post some pictures from the wedding we went to last weekend. Here are a couple of my favorite, there were a lot more taken than I am posting. As you can tell from the pictures we had a pretty good time. It was especially a nice night out for us moms that didn't have our kids with us. We really let loose as you probably can tell by the pictures. It was a lot of fun!

Happy Birthday Dad!

I want to wish my Dad a WONDERFUL Birthday!!!! We hope that he has a great birthday and we are excited about celebrating his birthday with him tomorrow! We are so lucky to have him as our dad and for Addy to have such a wonderful grandpa!
We love you!

Halloween with Addy

While Jay and I were off to a wedding, Addy stayed with my parents and sister. Here are some of the pictures they took of her trick or treating. My little baby is so grown up. Where did the time go? Enjoy the pictures. I will post some from the wedding when I get more.
