Pictures From Grandma

I have finally taken the pictures off my Mom's camera, so this is a span of about 6 months or so.
Here is Addie playing with Molly at Grandma's house.

Addison loves putting her toys in bags, this time she put herself in her bag.

In August we visited Troy and Jamian for Chole's Baptism. Addie and Eliza are pretending to go to sleep.

Addie will wear any shoes that she can get her feet into, this time she is wearing Uncle B's

I believe that this is Thanksgiving but I am not sure. Here is Addie and Quinn having some fun friend time spinning in the chair.

Where one little girl will go the other will follow!

Thanksgiving fun! Aaron is giving Eliza a ride on his shoulders he would end up in the bean bag.

Having fun playing UNO.

Addie loves cuddling up with grandma on the couch to get warm or to just read with her.

From a picture above you can see Addie in the bag this time you get to see all her toys in the bag.

This is her CHEESY face, so cute!

Addie and Quinn love spending time with each other. Here they are reading books together.

Addie loves her cousin Bubba and loves giving hugs.
The video on the left is Addie sword fighting with Matt and I while we are playing the Wii. The movie on the right is Addie being Addie and just being a curious child.

New Years!!!!!

Getting the four wheeler ready for tubing!

Addie, Aaron and I ready for some fun in the snow.

Emilee and Matt

It was SO cold that I had to wear my goggle all the time! Addie loved going on the four wheeler but I did not want her face to freeze so I turned her toward me.

Addie making snowballs and putting them into my hand.

Matt with his frozen cheeks! It was really cold to be tubing.

Addie and I playing a mystery game together.

OK so I have to admit that my daughter is funny. Here she is with my tank top on and a head band on wrong direction on her head. I just have to laugh! She loves to dress up!

Aaron was changing the oil in the car and I brought Addie out to watch. She decided that she wanted to be daddies little helper.

When you have a camera sometimes you just have to have fun....hence these two pictures!

So it may look like our house is FREEZING but it really not that cold. Addie loves to put her jackets on and she also love to wear her hat, plus with this time you get my tank top also! LOVE IT!!!!!

Snow, Christmas Tree Hunting and Fun

Addie wearing my boots. They almost look like fishing boots on her.

We bought Addie a new coat and snow pants for the winter. I asked her to put them on to show Aaron she refused to take them off even for dinner.

Aaron took us to the zoo for my Birthday. Addie is looking at some pretty birds.

Baby Zuri and her mom. Addie now knows what a elephant says!

Addie looking at the leaymers.

The tortes saying hello to Addie.

Addie loves these guys!

Addie and Aaron

I am showing Addie how to take two ritz crackers and put cheese in between to make a sandwich.

Every year the Allen family hikes out and finds a Christmas Tree. This year we had so much snow that we had to go up to a different location and get a tree off along side the road. Brandon Emilee and I all excited!

Matt decided to plop down into the snow and ended up with a face full of snow because of all the powder.

This is why we were unable to get up to our usual spot. The snow was up to our waist. In the end we hiked out of the mountains with 5 Christmas tree (one being 20 ft long). Thank you boys for doing most of the grunt work.

I would call this the hick was of sledding. It is LOTS more fun and you don't consume as much energy.

Addie and Quinn even took a ride. Quinn loved it so much that she fell asleep on Tyson's lap.

Caleb and Brian enjoying the cold.

Aaron and I with our red noses!

This year Addie had three Christmases the first the Allen's the Saturday after Thanksgiving Addie got a baby doll, second the Lassig's at the beginning of December Addie got a farm with animals (shown above opening it) and then on Christmas day with Clair, Nate, Aaron, Addie and I. Addie then got a purse, little puppy dogs, a baby crib, and lots of fun stocking candy.

Aaron brought home the Costco food in a box and the day I found Addie cuddled in it like a puppy dog.

WHENEVER there is silence in the house I know that there are two things happening 1. Addie is asleep or 2. she is getting into something that she is not suppose to. This was the second, Addie pulled out half the roll of my plastic wrap out of the drawer and was trying to get rid of the evidence before her mother saw.

There are many ways in which you can use a stroller.....here is one. Addie is in love with hats!

Addie all bundled up to go for a run with Aunt Clair Christmas morning.

Some how every year we only get one or two pictures for Christmas, maybe next year I will make sure we get more. Here is Addie opening her stocking.

In August Aaron and I had two Chloe's (Aaron's niece and my niece) turn 8. We had the opportunity to see Chloe Stanley get baptized at the beginning of August, for Labor Day we went down to St. George to see Chole Allen get baptized. At each baptism I felt such a sweet spirit and it was such a joy to see each girl come out of the water brimming with joy. Here is everyone that traveled down to St. George for some Labor Day fun.

Addie inherited Aaron's bright blue eyes and puppy dog face. Needless to say she and her daddy have me wrapped around their little fingers.

Sometimes it takes me off guard to look at pictures and see that my little girl is growing up and becoming such a little lady. Here she is sitting in the bike trailer telling me it time for our daily ride around the neighborhood. This is also a front view of a hair do that I did on Addie.

Back view of the piggy tail braids.

Playing at the park after our bike ride together.

She now loves going down the slide by herself.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
This is fun mom lets do it again!

Addie playing on the spinning poles. She loves getting herself dizzy.

Doing what she loves to do best.......exploring the world.

Helping mom make biscuits for dinner one Sunday night. Addie is such a little helper, she loves to help me cook dinner and she also loves loading and unloading the dish washer. I think that it is great being a mom to such a little cutie.
