Better late than never!

Last week I took Addie to go the Frederik Meijer Gardens to see the butterflies, with some friends. Here are a couple butterflies :)




And of course.... Addie!


She was being a stinker! I was trying to get a picture for her 2 year pics, and she played in the dirt!


and bit her nails!


Here she is in front of the big frog, which you may remember from Last year


She liked it better when she could run!


When we got home she played outside, and we hauled out the activity garden, she still loves it!


Ham


More running!


Hmmm... what's over there?


Addie no longer uses doors, she climbs into everything!




I love how she is on her tippy toes :)


She kept runnig around with her arms inthe air! She's the queen of the world!!!!!!!!!!!


She loved to push her cozy coupe off the cement, and then get it back up... here she is checking out the problem.


Hmmm...


Trying to pull it back up.


On the move!


Climbing out.


And pushing....


I just thought this was cute :)


And this :)


This last one is just a random naughy picture... she is trying to mess up my cupboards... she thinks it's hilarious when she gets caught!

A "new" hat

Addie is into "weighing" her babies lately... she likes to stack them all on the scale, and take them off, and put them on, and take them off... she does it for a loooooong time!
(right after this picture we had to say goodbye to Mr. Giraffe... Addie threw him in the toilet!)


*********************************************************

Addie is really into putting her babies "nah-neye" she takes her onsies out of her drawers and puts them over the babies like a blanket.



*********************************************************

I was going through Addie's clothes this weekend, putting old things away, and she found this hat, she LOVES it! She wore it a lot of the weekend. Here she is just being cute :)

Cheese!




This is Addie saying "noooooooo" in the saddest way ever, because I told her to say cheese, she is so melodramatic!




I don't know what she is doing here, but it was cute!




Ugh! Biting her nails!

Lots of pictures!!!!!!!!!

At our house, we like to start the working early! Last week I taught Addie how to put the groceries away! She brought them all to her bedroom, and had a blast!


This one is super blurry, but I thought her expression was so cute, I had to post it, she is piling up all the diapers in her bedroom.


She liked doing it so much that Joel brought them back to the kitchen so she could bring them to her room again (a little counter-productive, but a lot cute :) )


********************************************************************

Joel took this picture... he is always taking pictures of Elsie and Addie (to bad she is about to shove her finger up her nose... as usual)


********************************************************************

This weekend I got out the blocks that Addie got for her first birthday. I figured we didn't have the room for them before... and well, we still don't, but she has been stacking those big blocks (on the bus behind her) a TON lately, so I thought I would haul them out anyways... she LOVED them!


Especially knocking them down!





********************************************************************

We haven't had bath pictures in a while... Addie's favorite part is still putting her hand under the faucet while filling the tub.






MOHAWK! My mom always used to do this to us!







Being weird!


Addie's second favorite part of her baths.... drinking the water (collective EWWWWW)


Gross....


This is her after I took the toy away...


********************************************************************

More climbing! I don't know why, but Addie always wants to stand on something when she is next to this table... she is tall enough, so it doesn't make sense...


Clearly, this is not going to work!




She doesn't give up though!


********************************************************************

That's all folks!

We did get a video camera last week (it was supposed to be a Christmas present for ourselves, we just never took the final step and got it!) so we should have some videos coming up!
