A little of what we have been doing

We are all doing pretty well. Addy loves her pre-school and she asks every day if today is school. It's been nice to have some one on one time with Carter. He likes to wash his hands by himself and one day I was changing his diaper and he said that he wanted to wash his hands, and when I went in to check on him I found this. It was too cute, I had to take a picture. One day the kids wanted to play make up, they love that. Addy went to town on his face. Carter loved it. Will is doing well in his rotations. He stays very busy. We love it when he has time off. I am doing good. I am getting bigger. This pregnancy has been good. No problems. The kids are excited about their baby brother. I stay pretty busy with the kids and the house, but I love it.

Tag!!

Ok, so I was tagged by Chalen to do a post about Addy.



Name and Meaning: Adyson Lee. Well when we were thinking about names we really liked Kylee and then Will went to a conference and he was talking to some girls and he said that his wife was pregnant and one of the girls said when she has a girl she wanted to name her Adyson. Well he called me and told me the story and we both really like the name. When he got home we were talking about it more and then he was not so sure about it because it was the name of the little boy in Star Wars. I laughed and then told him, his name was Anakin Skywalker. So we kept them name, but we didn't like how everyone spelled it Addison it was not girly enough for us. We went out to dinner with some of our friends, Brian and Trisha and we were talking about the name, and it was one of those restaurants were they give you crayons and the table cloth was a white paper. So we were trying different spellings of the name and Trisha spelled it Adyson and we loved it.



Age: 4 1/2, Addy will not let you forget that half. Her birthday is in November.



Nicknames: Addy, little one, cutie



Favorite Activities: Addy loves to be outside riding her bike, loves to play games on the computer at Noggin.com, loves to do her homework book.



Favorite Foods: Grilled Cheese, only from restaurants though, mom does not make them good enough, pizza and spaghetti.



Least Favorite Foods: Most fruit besides bananas and craisins.



Favorite Music: I love to see the Temple. I am a child of God. This one not so good, she loved to dance to this song My Humps by Black Eyed Peas, funny thing, if you go to Utube.com and search out "cute little girl dancing to My humps" Addy will come up and she has some moves. I'm not sure where she gets them from. Again I'm not proud of the song she is dancing too.



Favorite Toy:Polly Pockets



Favorite Book: Love Ruby Valentine



Favorite Item of clothing:Her sparkly pants



What makes her Happy: She has these little Polly Pocket dolls that she loves me to play with her with. She loves to hold any baby, but she loves to hold our friends son Chase. She loves when her brother does not bother her. She loves when her dad comes home and they rough house and he throws her on the lovesac. She loves to go to school.



What makes her Sad: When her brother hits her or bites her. When I don't play with her.

Waterbury

Last weekend we took the kids to Waterbury which is only about 30 min away and we had a picnic and played around for a while. The kids loved throwing rocks into the water. Will and I took some pictures of just us, which does not happen too often when your parents. There might be one of us kissing, so just deal with it. Just kidding. We love to spend time with Will when he is home. He is such a wonderful husband and a great Dad! He does so much for us. We love you Willie!

Family Time

Leddy Beach

This week has been in the high 80, and so one day after Addy was done with school we went down to this beach that is right down the road from us and cooled down. We had a lot of fun. Addy was able to walk out pretty far, she found lots of cool rocks. Carter loved to splash in the water and roll around in the sand.

1st Day of School

On September 2, Addy started preschool. Her teachers are very nice and she was so excited to be going again. She was counting down the days. I was very excited too, but a little scared because I didn't know the teachers before. Last year Addy's teacher was one of our really good friends, Diana Kofford, I knew she would be safe and learn lots. This preschool is fairly close to our house and the teachers seem very nice. I can't believe she is getting so big! Addy and Carter hugging goodbye
