Chasing Addy

Addy is full of more and more energy everyday. From the moment she rises in the morning the chase begins. She is into everything and so happy, most of the time. She has decided things are 'her's' by pushing my hands away when I hold things for her and she has been practicing her tantrums. Just a little for now. It keeps things fun around here.
Tonight she thought something was funny. Here is a cute video of it.

Also tonight she decided that her toy basket looked like something fun to climb in.

This picture shows the bruise from earlier this week. We are still not sure exactly how it got there, but it is not the last one for sure.


Yesterday a friend took some great pictures of her for invitations for her 1st birthday. They turned out very cute. Krissy made the tutu for her too. She wouldn't smile, probably because the tutu itched and she wasn't so sure about it but the pictures turned out great.





That's just a little bit of how our week has been. Todd got a new bow and is a little bit excited for the hunts that are coming up. A little bit is a HUGE understatement. I started back in school and between Addy and classes my days are very full. We wouldn't change a thing.

Catching up...from Easter to the Fourth.

For some reason I can't remember to keep up on the blog. So this is my try at once again being a blogger.

Addy is into everything these days. She crawls and pulls herself up onto everything and yesterday attempted to climb the baby gate. No, she is not walking. But why not climb things first? Her personality is shining more and more everyday and let's just say for the time being she wins when it comes to fit throwing.

Let's start by catching up. Addy's Easter was just another day. We were home helping grandpa Doug so nothing special happened. But we got some pics of her in the dress.

Then for Memorial Day weekend we went camping with the Thayn's. All of grandpa Lloyds kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids were there so we got a family pic. We had fun until the wind was too strong and we bailed Sunday afternoon for grandpa & grandma Thayn's house back in LaSal.
Addy & Aubrey had fun playing for awhile.
Until the wind became to unbearable. Sheila captured this cute moment where she was clinging to me and yet posing for the camera.
Then grandpa Doug and grandma Karen came to visit and we drove to Meeker and explored. It's a beautiful town with lots of history. It was fun to walk around. They were also setting up the carnival for the Fourth, so we enjoyed that for a minute.
On the way back from Meeker Addy discovered her toes. She sure made it sound like it was delicious.

Then we went to the park and let Addy swing. She loves being outside and it a fun day.

This picture was also camping on Memorial weekend. It's her first twizzler and is a great picture.

That's a brief look at what we have been up too. Now Todd is getting ready for the bow hunt which is rapidly, but not fast enough for him, approaching. Addy will turn 1 in the middle of the hunt and we will be spending 3 weeks back home, Todd camping/hunting and Addy and I visiting family. We are all excited, but for different reasons.
