Busy Busy!

Addie has been keeping us very busy so far this summer. We have visited relatives, played with friends, taken many trips to the zoo and donw lots of swimming so far. The girl loves to be outside--especially when she gets to swim! We bought her a little pool and she also has a sandbox. Everytime I ask her what she wants to do, she says "Wim! Wim!" and runs to get her swimsuit out of the drawer. She isn't afraid at all of the water...which is kind of scary to us. Still, it is a great way to pass time on these hot summer days.

Addie has also become obsessed with several Disney characters--Belle, Ariel and Cinderella. Funny enough, she has never actually seen the movies...just has some "Disney Princess" pajamas and also a Belle doll that I found at a garage sale. I pulled up some videos off of YouTube from the actual movies and she was mesmerized. I fought back tears of joy as I watched her get so into the music. I guess I secretly hope we have a little performer on our hands! I am thinking that we might have to surprise her with a Little Mermaid book and doll soon to add to her collection...

Other fun things that we have discovered lately:

Addie loves corn on the cob! She goes CRAZY for it! She munches the whole thing like a little beaver working on a log. I will have to work on some video for that.

Addie always likes to pray before her meals. She clasps her hands and says "Men" for "Amen" before we eat. When I ask her who we are praying to, she sayd "JeJus." Woo...that really melts my heart. :)

Addie is still obsessed with babies. I got out a tub of my old baby dolls recently and Addie went berkserk! We actually had to hide them after she went to sleep because it was too stressful on her to keep up with all of them (trying to carry them all around the house).

Well, that is the update for now. I got a new, smaller camera so I hope to have more candid shots in the future. I love my big Nikon, but it is definitely a pain to lug around everywhere.

Our silly girl:


Happy Father's Day to Trevor!
