She's two!


Addie's second birthday!

Because Addie had her birthday while we were in Geneva, we threw her a little party. I can't believe what a beautiful little girl she is! She has grown up so much this year. I love that she can talk to me and loves to play the drums and any other other instrument she can get her hands on. She loves to be in the water and doing anything that requires being outside. One of my favorite things she has started doing is walking around the house with the drumsticks and raising them above her head and tapping them together while she says "1,2, 3". She is so obsessed with Yo Gabba gabba (yo gab). Although her favorite movies currently are Bolt, and Josie and the Pussycats.
She can count 1-10 and loves to sing her abc's (her own rendition that leaves out most of the middle), she knows all the letters in the alphabet and loves to point them out to me

wherever we go.
She is currently learning her colors and how to use a potty!

I love my big girl!

POO POO Success!

Addie has taken the next step and we are officially 1 and 2-ing on the potty! We bought her some underwear and are hoping for more success. I swore that the last box of diapers i bought at costco would be the LAST i bought for Addie, lets hope this really works...


On another note, we are so excited to see our friends and addie is dying to have people to play with. Taylors pond is up to like 10 LDS families....

"bye bye poo poo, see ya soon!" Addie age 2

Addie has finally started potty training and she really loves having her own special potty that she picked out.

She went on the potty twice this weekend, all by herself. Unfortunately, she also went in front of the potty, next to the potty and once on the step stool in the bathroom. The step stool really confused her, she was really upset that it snuck up on her like that.
