Loving the Water

Addison really does seem to love the water. Today, I got in with her and we tried out the new float Nana bought (really cool because it has a place for an adult to float while swimming with her). She just splashed and splashed. It would take her breath every time the water hit her face. We stayed in for over an hour playing together.

Laughing at Kenzie.

Her favorite thing to do so far in the water.

This weekend, Matt, Addison and I are all going to the beach to stay. We are super excited to get away together for a little bit. Matt has been working on a paper that has to be turned in tomorrow, so we are all CELEBRATING. He has worked hard on this, and I know he is glad this class is over.

First Pool Experience

Today was such a nice day to take a dip in the pool. Of course, McKenzie said she ONLY wanted to put her feet in, but you know how that always ends up. Pretty soon it was her WHOLE body. I decided to put Addison in as well(fully dressed) to see how she reacted, and she loved it. We didn't get all the way in, but she did sit on the first step (Mom of course wasn't ready for the cold pool yet). I am so glad she likes the water and can't wait to take her swimming.

She loved splashing the water with her feet and hands.

Getting warmed up!

Won't You Be My Teddy Bear

Today McKenzie wanted to show us her new dance recital routine. She has a dance recital in May that she is practicing for. It was so cute. Addison got a kick out of her dancing. She couldn't stop giggling at her. I think she just wanted to get down there and dance with her.

Waking Up is Hard to Do

Unless of course you wake up to this:

We put her at the very end of the bed to try to prevent this from happening, but she ends up in this same corner every time(multiple times a night).

Favorite Toys

This is Addison's new favorite toy. It is so funny when you watch her in it because she can't decide which toy she wants to play with. She just spins and looks at them all and finds which ones she can pull down to her mouth. So far the frog is her favorite. This also helps mom to get things done around the house. Thanks Mrs. Nancy for letting us use it!!

Sleeping Beauty

This is Addison's favorite sleeping position. We usually know she is going to be out for a while when her hands go behind her head. She even does this when she falls asleep in her bouncy seat. So sweet!

Happy Birthday Aunt Heather!

Sending you love and a little Florida sunshine your way! Hope you have a great day! Happy Birthday!!! 4/21/08
