Blue Ridge Visit Part 1

Presidents Day weekend Addison and I visited Mimi and Papa in Blue Ridge.  We had a great weekend at the park and the Fire and Ice chili cook off and ice sculpting festival. 

 

Addison had a great time wearing all of Mimi’s shoes.  Here she is in a pair of her boots.

Here we are at the restaurant after a wonderful dinner.  It was difficult breaking Addi away from the iPod for a picture.

Potty training update

Ms Addison started in big girl panties on a permanent basis on the 5th of Feb.  She has had 1 accident since then and it was at school.  We found that the longer she was staying in pull ups the more she thought she was being given permission to go in them.  We still use them over night just to be safe but so far so good.   She loves getting up in the morning and picking out which pair she is going to wear… I think its a bigger deal than her shirts and pants! 

Addi’s First Wrestling Tournament

Addison got to go to Wrestling Sectionals last Saturday.  Our friend Josh coaches for East Coweta and they were at Central Gwinnett.  She really got into it.  At one point on our way up the steps everyone else started yelling, she stopped, turned around started clapping and yelling right along with them!

Addison decided she’d had enough and grabbed her wagon and headed up the hill…

when we asked where she was going.. she yelled Chic a lake (chic fil a)… apparently she was sick of being snowed in too…

Cave Time!!

Addi’s class made a cave and talked about hibernation at school.  They each took in a teddy bear and the bear stayed in the cave for a week.  That had Addi very interested in caves so we made one at home during our snow week! SAM_0218

Time for Reading!!

 

This girl loves to read.  She prefers to read us her bedtime stories.  Currently its ‘Over The Moon (Goodnight Moon)’ (audio to be posted shortly) Here she is showing me the animals and telling me their colors and sounds.
