We're off to see the Wizard!

As part of Grammy's stocking, mommy and Grammy went to see the Wizard of Oz!
They had a great time! We had to get a group picture before they left me.

Addie in the Bathtub

Addie does enjoy her baths. If you say, Addie, do you want a bath? She will run to the bathroom. She enjoys running the water, playing with her ducks and singing bath songs. Grammy bought her some bath toys for Christmas. She would stay in there all day if I let her!

School Su***

This is Addie after school, the first Monday back. She was getting her molar teeth (top and bottom) She was super cranky at home. She had a great day with Anna, Alea and Teagen but she was not happy with mommy for leaving her after being home for two straight weeks. She threw a big fit and was only happy when Mommy was holding her!

Driving my Firetruck

This is Addie in her firetruck. She loves to crawl into it but she is not quite strong enough to hold down the button to make it go.

Matching Outfits

Addie got a black velour jogging suit for her birthday and Jeremy bought me one for Christmas. This is a picture of us going shopping the day after Christmas. Daddy of course does NOT have velour black jogging suit!!

Sorry Angry People!

Okay so I haven't blogged in a while. For two reasons:

1. Noone comments anymore so I wasn't sure anyone reading

2. I got Twilight for Christmas and have been reading those. Just finished the last one, and then we didn't have internet due to the ICE

13 months -- December 26th

Miss Adalynn is now 13 months old. She has achieved several milestones this month.

• Being a late walker, she is finally now a walker. She walks most places now. This happened while we were at home for Christmas. Addie is very independent but also knows she will get what she wants. She wasn't to motivated to walk.
• She is cautious in most situations but warms up quickly.
  
• She is eating whatever she wants. Now that she can feed herself she isn't too excited about things on a spoon.
• She is starting to grow some hair. It is thickening and some of it is long. Some days it is blonde and sometimes it looks dark? It is straight for now no indication of curl.
• She loves babies and kisses them.
• She can crawl into her chair and sit down.
  
• She is working on coloring but mainly just takes all the crayons and puts them into her mouth.

Words I can say or try to say

• Mama
• Dada
• Bella
• Bawks like a chicken ( we have this down )
• Quack
• Duck
• Book
• Ball
• Dog
• Ga "Grammy"
• "gone-gone"
• Mamba "Maebrie"
• Bye
• something that sounds like "juice"
  
• there are these two syllable words that she attempts but they all sound the same Justin, Thank-you and Santa
• this is what we can understand-- she talks all the time and is starting to utter these long sentences with a lot of /d/ sounds in them
  

She is understanding so much. She knows where her belly is, and her head and sometimes nose. She prefers to identify our parts instead of her own. She knows what her socks are. I am surprised everyday by what she knows. Today Jeremy came in the house and said "where is your mama?" and she pointed to me and said "Ma-ma"

We are kinda sleeping through the night. However, we have been congested and are cutting two molars and then we traveled so we haven't been doing to fabulously lately.

We are up to 6 teeth. She is wearing 12 and some 18 month clothes. Starting to wear some size 4 shoes. She weighs around 22 lbs. Eyes are definitely brown. She has my waxy ears and when she is thinking really hard she locks her jaw just like Jeremy. We still catch her crossing her ankles like her daddy and great grandmother and occassionally we catch her moving her tongue around which my mom claims that I do also. She is the best helper ever. Any project that we doing she is more than willing to help from wrapping presents to loading the dishwasher. Her favorite toys are still her books! I hope that continues throughout her life. She seems to be a very smart little girl.
