Beautiful weather and birthdays!

Was last weekend gorgeous, or what? I can't believe that our last post was pictures of us in the snow and now, in these pics, Addi is in a summer dress!

a fun day at Aldridge Gardens

The little ones had fun snuggling up with Gigi and watching the video of Braden coming in 3rd place in the Boy Scout Derby race. We also watched videos of the boys performing songs and of Weston falling asleep at the table. I don't know when I've laughed so hard! I was sore the next day. Is that sad, or what?!

Wild Woman!

I haven't been able to post videos in a while so I'm going to try it and we'll see what happens!

SNOW DAY!

It was so nice to have SNOW (and get out of school early)! Addison had the best time playing in it! (Anders did, too!) Here are some pictures of our fun snow day!

(These are out of order...) After we played in the snow Friday afternoon, Addi came in and got to watch Monsters, Inc. (the first movie we've rented for her). She loved it! She also licked on a sucker that Ms. Christi gave her.

all sugared up!

While Addi watched her movie, I finished painting the canvas that John and I have been working on for her new room. I think it turned out pretty cute!

the first family picture we've taken in months and months and months!

At this point, it was still snowing!

throwing snowballs

climbing (and falling) but having fun!

Anders and Lexi chased snowballs that our neighbor, Austin, threw.

more falling!

the view of our backyard! LOVE IT!

It's been a while...

Here are some pictures from the last week or so...

Addison enjoyed helping Daddy put together some shelves.

Crazy tub girl!

(I love this picture of Addi's big eyes!)

Here's my only way to include Finley right now. Belly shot- 21 weeks.

(Sadly, this is the first belly picture I've taken!)

Addi went to her friend William's Star Wars party. She had the best time!

Here's the birthday boy!

My long-time friend, Mary, was there with Elise Rose. Addi and Elise Rose are in the same class at school. They are sweet friends!

I really hate that I'm in this picture but it was the only way I could get a picture of Addison with the Storm Trooper. As you can tell, she's not too excited about meeting him.

We asked the Kilgores if they would babysit Addison while we went to John's National Boards Awards Ceremony/dinner. Ashley and Mary Kyle bought these pajamas for Addi. (She loves her new pj's). The girls had so much fun playing together! They took a bath, played "tea party," read books, and then fell asleep in Mary Kyle's bed. When we came to pick Addison up, we were shocked to see her asleep! She and Mary Kyle looked so sweet together! We honestly almost let her spend the night but then thought twice since our little love wakes up around 5:30 a.m. What would we do without the Kilgores!

John is now Nationally Board Certified! Yea John!
