Another fun video!

What an angel! This is "God our Father" I'm guessing that they sing this before they eat at daycare. It is SO cute. YES... we put mustard IN her ketchup. I accidently taught her that.. along with mayo in her peas! Oops.




Translation:

God our Father, God our Father,
We thank you, for our food
Bless it to our bodies, bless it to our bodies, ( i think...correct me if I'm wrong)
Amen ... Amen

Praise the Lord!

Ok-BYE BYE ... Kisses! :)



HOW PRECIOUS?

Starting out 2010

This is a totally random way to start this blog but I forgot about posting this video and wanted to share. This is after Addison found her note from santa to follow the blue rope. She was so focused on that rope that she didn't even notice the car!! haha. She finally did and was a little hesitant about it at first but she has warmed up to it since. I enjoyed our little scavenger hunt! I can't wait until it gets a little bit warmer so we can really ride!

Addison always has us laughing so hard!! From her spur of the moment "dance party" requests to her random little phrases this girl is FUNNY! Last night I gave her a banana and I leaned down, looked at her and said "Ok, what do you say?" Obviously expecting "Thank you!" Well, much to my surprise she held up her fist and said "gimme some bump dude!" ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? I could do nothing at this point but sit down laughing.

Here she is watching her tv and dancing

This was dinner one night this week. Jamey and Addison went and picked up Mexican from a new restaurant in our town. (so good by the way) We were so happy when Addison tried EVERYTHING we asked her to try and loved it! Jamey and I like to get Addison to try different types of food so she's not stuck on one thing forever. Jamey's lesson in eating tacos... just turn your head sideways! HA HA Hey, whatever works!

Funny Snow Bunny!
After school one day. They always make cute things at daycare. If I only had room to keep it all!

No work or school for us today because of SNOW!! Jamey had to work last night so he came in this morning and let me sleep in a little bit! This is what I found when I woke up and went in Addy's room. How sweet is this?! She didn't start out with that tank top on! haha

Here is the beginning of the snow at our house. It actually snowed pretty hard at times! It is still so strange to me to experience weather like this.
Here's the snow on daddy's new "big ole truck" as Addison calls it.
She LOVES it... I think he likes it pretty well too! :)

A little late but...

Thank you (grandpa and mema) Sorry for the names but she did that on her own! :) I tried adding "Bates" in there but ya know..she has a great mind of her own.

We really love our gifts all the way from Texas!!

She's already a great mommy!!

Merry Christmas 2009

We had such a great Christmas this year! Addison is now old enough to really get into everything and it was so fun. She was so animated with each gift and just in general. We of course had a somewhat unconventional Christmas. We went to Jamey's parent's house Tuesday night and had a wonderful dinner and exchanged gifts there. Jamey had to work Wednesday and Thursday nights so Addison and I decided to go ahead and go down to Monroeville and spend a little time with our family there. We were really sad that daddy wouldn't be with us but were very excited to be able to spend time with our other loved ones. We ate and exchanged gifts several times and tried to squeeze in as much time with everyone as possible. I was so proud of Addy for being such a good girl the whole trip. Luckily we had a few people and gifts to keep her occupied for a while! Friday morning Addison and I left to come home to see daddy. We were SO ready to get home and see him. Santa came to our house Friday night and Addy woke up to a huge surprise this morning. Nina and Poppy came over to see what Santa brought her and we had a wonderful breakfast. It was a great memory for our 1st Christmas in our new home! Santa brought Addison a pink car for Christmas this year. He had to leave her a note to explain where to find it. He left a rope that went down the stairs, through the basement and led to her car. She was so funny when she finally realized what exactly was going on!!! The rest of the day we played, played, played and played. I am so glad we all are so blessed and had a wonderful week!!!

Christmas pictures!

A few pictures we took for Christmas this year!

Christmas fun begins!

Of course decorating for Christmas is a fun part of the festivities, but my favorite part is spending time with great friends and family! Last night Addy and I went to a "girls night out ornament swap" at Mandy and Lucy's house. We met a lot of new friends and had a blast! Mandy and Lucy are 2 of the sweetest girls we know and I was so glad we were able to spend time with them. Today Addy and I went shopping and we now have everyone taken care of except .... ADDISON! Althought, she did get her "blue bear" today. It's the only thing she consistently talks about. She saw me with it and had a fit so I told her Santa gave it to me to give to her. Oh well! Lol I'm hoping to get her finished up tomorrow. I know shopping is supposed to be fun, but it stresses me out!! I just wish I could give someone money and get them to buy everything for me! lol. I'm looking forward to working 2 days this week and celebrating Christmas with my family! I hope to get to see some friends over the week as well.

My super cute ornament that I won fair and square! ha ha (dirty santa)

A lot of info ... a little time!

Ok, So I'm such a blogging slacker these days!! We have done so much and I have so much to share but I just can't make time to sit and type and upload! Sissy *ashlee* came to visit last weekend and that was OH SO FUN!! We had a total girls weekend even though daddy was there, he was a good sport. We took lots of pictures, went shopping, sang songs (mostly rap ha ha) and even made a commercial! Here is a glance into one of the best weekends we've had in a while!

I can't believe Christmas is in 1 week! Another thing that I've been such a slacker about is shopping!! I honestly have bought 2 gifts.. oh my. I really have to hit the roads running this weekend. We did go looking last night to get an idea of the things we wanted to get for Addison and we bought a cute little ornament for our tree for Addy. Here she is proudly displaying her "first ORMANENT" lol. How cute is she????? GAH!!!
