New Moon

I just realized i have yet to post about New Moon! We gathered together the most dedicated New Moon fans from "the Pond" went to new moon at 12:01 premiere. (where we met up with the biggest Twifans from the D1ward)
Lindsay Mills and I even made Team Volturi shirts! The hubbys watched the kids and off we went. I loved the movie, and i have decided to officially declare my allegiance to

Team Movie Jacob

I still love the Team Book Edward but how can anyone deny the love for Taylor Lautners Jacob over Rpatz as Edward. I am really excited for Eclipse, it was my favorite book hands down.

Potty train.....ed!

I have been nervous to say this out loud but i think i gave it enough time. Last time i said it things went downhill real fast. *fingers crossed*

Addie has been in undies for 2 weeks! I think i am declaring for real that she is pretty much POTTY TRAINED. On the real toilet and everything!

and as Addie says every time she uses the toilet, " I potty trained, Go Addie" and all it took was those pumpkins that come in the candy corn.

Addie's new tricks a post by Ryan

So here is an update of Addie's latest skills:

She knows her abc's and has started spelling every word she sees. She recognizes Addison, but that's about it so far. And she is learning the sounds the letters make and has most of the consonants down!

She counts everything that in sight that is not a letter.(up to 13 and sometimes we get a stray 16 or 17)

Loves to play pretend with her toys, which you can tell because she switches to her "pretend" voice. It is hilarious.

And the highlight of Ryan's week:

We were walking through the grocery store trying to keep Addie busy in the shopping cart, so we broke out a fresh can of play dough from her Halloween bag. She is playing with it and chattering away, then she yells "DAD! HELP! HELP!" So I ask what is wrong and she hands me the play dough which she had sculpted into what actually looked like a hippopotamus and says "Look, a Hippo!"

She's pretty much a genius.
