Thanksgiving & Miscellany

I have lots of randomness this time....

Here is Addie with her purse, and my scrarf and gloves... getting ready to go outside in her pjs apparently!


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

This is the only Thanksgiving picture I have... Addie with Jace and Jane, her secondish cousins.


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

Apparently Addie is petrified of the vacuum again... this is when I got it out, she saw it and stood by the door.


Then I stopped to do the livingroom and put her on the couch... she has her eyes on that vacuum!


Then she laid down.


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

Here is is wearing Joel's shoes, and eating an apple. An ENTIRE apple, she eats the core and all, SO weird!


Wearing Mommy's shoes

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

Here is baby Kimberly, because I know you all want to see Addie's doll. Addie thought she needed some beads!


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

We have these baskets in front of our fireplace on the ledge because we don't want Addie to hurt herself on the brick... this weekend she decided it would be a great place to play.


Here are ALL the toys she took out to get in there! I bet she played in there for 20 minutes!


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

This is devil Addie... she looks innocent... like she is just taking a fun bike ride... but she isn't!


She is chasing down poor Elsie! This is her new favorite thing to do!


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

She also loves playing tug with Elsie, here she is giving Elsie a ribbon, to tug on.


SO much fun!


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

And I had to add this little devil smile! If you could see this picture big, you would see Addie's teeth are coming in, she still needs her 4 eye teeth. One is popped through, and 2 I think will come through in the next couple days.

We can't WAIT for those teeth to be done!

Our Last Party of 2007

We had our last Christmas Party yesterday. It was a pretty fun time.

This is kinda a random picture, but I know at least Amy will enjoy it...

This is Spencer, my aunt's dog. He and Elsie and Presley had a pretty good time. He and Elsie have the same coloring, so it is funny to see them together, Elsie is like Spencer's mini-me. I tried to get a picture of them together, but obviously that didn't work out.

Addie made a couple friends at the Christmas party! My cousin Abby's daughter Jane, thought Addie was so much fun... at first Addie wasn't sure about her though.

Seconds before that picture Addie was laughing! Addie is a known nose-biter, and Jane thought this was hilarious!
Here is another try at getting their picture taken together... can you tell how exhausted Addie was? Poor thing.

And when Ella sees the camera out, she has to get in on the action!

Addie made yet another friend! We all got to meet my other cousin Maggie's new baby Holland! Maggie lives in Pennsylvania, so we don't see her often. Holland is almost 2 months old! And we think only 2 lbs less than Addie... I think someone needs to put some more weight on!!! Addie will be 9 months in a week and a half!
Addie is turning into quite the bully.

All she wanted to do is give her hugs and kisses :(

Addie must be very frightening!!!

Addie also got to visit with her Great Grandma. We had to make sure to get a picture because last time we visited we forgot the camera!!! No smiles from Addie though :( Maybe next time!

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

Before I forget! I want to quick post the before and afters of our kitchen!

Here it is!

I don't know why it turned out so small... but oh well! I like it a lot better so far, it is much less dingy looking! We still have to do the rest of the woodwark in the dining area, but the cabinets were the biggest task, so I am happy to be done with that! I think we need a new dishwasher now, because I think the black looks bad, but it still works, so Joel says no :(

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

I hope everyone has a great New Year!!! I am off to make sock animals until Joel gets home!
