Halloween!

Addie had her first Halloween and it was so fun. I bought a Halloween Kitten costume probably a month ago, I was a tad excited. I have been so excited for her to wear it. We went to a friends halloween party and then went to New Haven for their annual Halloween carnival.

At work :) 

She looks like she is about to take off 

my adorable kitten 

Happy Halloween!!

Addie Lately

These are just some pictures from the last couple of weeks and some cute Addie moments. 

Lately, someone likes to hold on to my shorts when I am walking around and thinks she can walk too. 

She finally lets go and shes just a happy baby

This is Addison's normal happy face...

...then she started making this face....

The duck face

Its ridiculous and adorable!

So the other day she was playing in her crib while we were cleaning her room and I come back in and she has made herself a little fort with all of her stuffed animals and her boppy

So we have been introducing her to a sippy cup over the last couple of weeks. She is still learning how to use it but getting the hang of it more and more each time. You can see the evolution in the pictures. 

We sure do love this happy little girl. Its hard to imagine how big she has gotten and how much she has grown! 

Halloween Fun

I saw this idea a long time ago and thought to myself, I can't imagine ever being able to do this or having the time, or actually getting my child to sit in a pumpkin. But after hunting through our local grocery stores little pumpkin area, I was hunting and climbing over pumpkins trying to find the perfect one, and I did. It was the perfect size, and huge. I was worried this little 'project' of mine was going to cost an arm and leg because this pumpkin would be expensive, I ended up getting a deal because the pumpkin was damaged in the back (but you cant see it at all in the pictures :) Kendra helped set stuff up and we were ready to try it. Addie did a great job!! She was smiley and happy and we got so many amazing pictures

So the ones I saw on Pinterest were naked babies, I got some really cute shots like that but she started getting cold so we switched out.

At first she was standing because I couldnt figure out how to get her little bum to sit down

trying to get her to sit and she is just giggling 

The rest is just cute and perfect :) 

After a little while she started eating the pumpkin

We got a couple of cute family pictures too 

Such a fun day with pictures that are just perfect and the world cutest little girl :) Happy Halloween!!

Hanging out with grandparents

Addison got to hang out with the grandparent this weekend!! Smittie is going on a long trip soon so we had to had a visit before he left.And really any excuse to see my mom and get grandparent cuddles is worth it.

This is how most of our car trips end up after about 30 minutes. 

We wanted to go visit my grandma Lena, I used to go and see her every weekend when I was a kid. We saw other family while we were there too. My aunt Wenda Mae and Uncle Bob too. 

Back at the hotel hanging out getting ready for bed. 

of course grandma got Addie some new toys :) She was very excited 

She loved the beds in the hotel because she could pull herself up and stand. and then of course try and eat it

She has to get down very carefully 

Addie can sit in a high chair now when we go out to eat, its so mice to not have to hold her all the time

 Baby selfie- she is wearing the vest that Smittie made for her, she matches grandma and grandpa :)

Addies first ice cream cone

She loved it!!! 

There was an awesome swing outside of our hotel room and we took some very cute pictures.  It had some amazing detail and was beautiful. 

Addie loves to play candy crush with dad and help him pass his levels. 

Dancing with grandma

she has to make sure grandpa is watching 

picture time!

I think she looks so much like my mom :) 

Ok, so we went to this restaurant in Panguitch and they had these massive cinnamon rolls, for 4 dollars, seriously they are amazing!!! They are the size of a huge plate and all four of us shared it and still didnt finish one. I'm thinking of going on another road trip just to get one :) 

Saying goodbye at the car, love these pictures. 

What a great weekend with some of my most favorite people. Addison is so blessed to have such wonderful influences and examples of love in her life. Cant wait until we are all together again at Christmas :)
