Bass Pro Shop and other pics!

Here are some pictures we've taken in the last week. Enjoy!
(trying out the new camera that I got for my birthday- Thanks, Mom! I love it!)
John and I needed something "fun" to do on such a stormy Sunday so after church and lunch we took Addi to the Bass Pro Shop for the boat show. She had the best time! Her favorite part was painting her wooden boat. Knowing our child would ruin her clothes, we took off her shirt and let her go wild with paint!

She fell in love with Digger, the stuffed racoon. I think she really thought he was alive. She kept trying to feed him and kept saying, "He doesn't have any food!"
She wasn't a huge fan of the bear in the cave.
Here she is feeding the deer pine cones.
kisses for the deer
She and Daddy are dying for a boat (I must say I'd like one to!).
She really liked this one. It was only $18, 000 or so- HA!

"Peet-a-boo" (As Addison calls it.)

The news of having a baby has made Addison enjoy pretending that she's a baby. She'll say, "Waaaa Waaa, I a baby. I need a bottle." And then she'll say, "I all grown up now! I not a baby anymore." Too cute!

IT'S A...GIRL!!!!!

I feel bad that we've known for a week that we are having a GIRL and haven't written anything about her! We are naming our sweet baby "Finley" Kate Woolard. We are so excited that Addison is going to have a sister to grow up with. Finley looks healthy and perfect! She was moving a lot during the ultrasound which was fun to see. She is quite the "mover"! I love to feel her kick and squirm and look forward to John getting to feel her in the next few weeks. We are truly blessed to be having another baby, and we just love her so much already!

Addi, the big "sisser"

Family birthday celebration!

Last night my family came over to celebrate my birthday. It was so much fun, though we missed you, Tucker, Eme, and Braden! Addison talked all week about her cousins coming over. She just loves when people come to our house to visit. She pulled out all of her toys to show everyone and was so excited she could hardly stand it!

TGIF (almost!)

Addison woke up this morning at 5:00 just as my alarm was going off. She wasn't very happy to have woken up. I put her in our bed and said, "Addison, did you know today is Mommy's birthday?" She said, "Oh, happy dutday, Mommy." Then she said, "I gotta luh boo (love you)." She gave me a big hug and lots of kisses. Too sweet. Then, when I got out of the shower, I noticed that she had torn toilet paper up in little pieces and put it around the bathroom. She immediately said, "It's for the pohtty." I'm thinking "potty?" Then I realized that she was saying "party." She was making decorations for my birthday. What a sweet little girl! It was a wonderful day! John sent me beautiful flowers from Dorothy McDaniels since he is out of town (he'll be back tomorrow- YEA!). Mom, Addi, and I went to dinner at Bone Fish, which was delicious (though I ate way too much!). Oh, by the way, I am now able to feel the baby move, which is wonderful! I drank a coke today and about 30 minutes later, the baby started dancing around! We find out the sex of the baby on Monday, and I can't wait!

Thanks, Eme and Aunt Julie for letting Addi borrow this adorable outfit!

While Daddy's away, the girls will play!

Well, John has now been in Boston for about 4 days, and Addi and I are missing him like crazy! I'm sure Anders is, too, because I've had to keep her behind the baby gate since she gets into everything. Here are some pictures of us playing together over the weekend.

For some reason, Addison loves hiding in her bucket of blocks.




Here she is doing some artwork!
