Wrastlin'

It all started so innocent.....
A little bit of this....

And a little bit of that...

A touch of this....

And a whole lotta laughs.

Grayson just loves playin' with his daddy. And I think you can see...Daddy thinks it's pretty cool too!

Finally, some birthday shots!

Addison was SO happy when Auntie sent her a Dora umbrella and princess microphone!
Blow it out, girl!

I bet you can't guess who this pair is!

Andrew, Addison, Jackson & Emily doin' a little work before the bear maing!

All were listening intently to the directions...I think they were all scared!

I was so sad when I looked through my pictures from Addison's birthday party at Build A Bear. Nearly all of them turned out either blurry or just plain bad. It was a crazy long day for everyone. Along with most of Addison's most special friends, Papa also came to join the fun! What a wonderful day!

Addison turns 3!

It's been 3 years since I became a mother. 3 years since our lives were turned upside down by the great and LATE entrance of this sweet little girl. I'm sure all moms would agree that no matter what advice you get, no matter how many books you've read and classes you've taken...until you hold that baby in your arms you will never quite understand what it is to be a mom. How I got so lucky to be Addison's mom, I'll never know. All I do know is that I'm so greatful she is mine and I can't imagine my life without her. Happy Birthday Addison Clare!

Handsome prince

I love this baby boy.

Both smiling...couldn't be!

The Easter Dress

I took my little princess outside before the egg hunt to get some pictures of her in her easter dress. For those of you who know my small obsession with Janie & Jack, I've been looking for this dress for Addison for a long, long time. It's from a line that came out before she was born. I finally found it a few months ago, brand new, in the consignment shop and found the other bits and pieces on Ebay (my other small obsession).

Finally Some easter pics!

Jumpin' in the bouncer!

Got one!!

Closer daddy!

What's in here??

Love this pic...little and big all in one.

Look at all those eggs!!

I just love how she bends over...so dainty!

She was just a itchin' to get started!

>>>do you think anyone would notice if I took just ONE before we're allowed?>>>

Eggs....as far as the eye could see!

This was the first Easter where the kids really had a blast. Saturday we went to an egg hunt, their first, and it was such a blast! There were eggs just spread out on the ground EVERYWHERE and the kids, ages 0-3, were able to just run like crazy to get their eggs. Grayson didn't quite get it, so Daddy helped him out. And Addison...well, you'll see from the pictures, she could not wait to get started!!
