Birthday and Ski Team

 

There used to be raspberries here, as you can tell from the red juice dripping down Addy's chin.

 

Going for a morning stroll

 

New Wasa chocolate sandwiches: Fun to eat and a good way to keep a toddler awake in the car.

 

Addy likes to see her frown in the camera

 

And smile!

 

Some of the ski team

 

The top level of the ski pyramid! She looks a little funny because they wear skinny life jackets under their suits.

Angel food cake was a success!

 

How did one ever make Angel Food cake before the Kitchenaid?

Kit goes to Texas

 

Getting ready to go swimming--she loves her sunglasses now

 

She also loves fitting into tight spaces.

 

Those look like bugs, but they are raisins, promise.

 

Growing up too fast.

 

Checking out the empty pool. There are usually sunbathers there, but the pool is usually empty.

 

Holding her splash bomb.

 

Pushing around her collection of current favorites.

 

Picture sent to dad in TX.  She puts those angry eyes on special for the camera.

 

Cheesy grin

 

There is a first time for everything. She liked about 15 minutes then kind of did her own thing.

 

Addy loves license plates these days.

 

And cars in general as long as she's not in her car seat. 

 

Proud of our garden. We took this picture on Monday and now (6 days later) the tomatoes have grown past where my arm is (at least 6 inches). They are growing like crazy!

 

We think that she is a Julia look-a-like sometimes.

 

Texas state capitol

 

Good looking blue Wasa booth

 

The race tanktop

 

Dad is home and she won't leave his side, even to let him finish dinner.

Aunt Erin gave us these shoes when they wouldn't fit Juniper and we just love them.

 

Addy's face.

 

Brie hair gel

 

Cheesy grin

 

This girl loves her soccer ball

 

Hanging out after her nap, in no hurry to get up. (She did request a book though.)

 

Despite her low percentiles, we do feed her--look at that belly!

 

Her preferred method of taking a bath--playing with the water as it comes out of the faucet.

 

The 10K runners

 

I feel like we've had this picture a few different times at a few different races

 

waiting for mom

 

Finishing strong!

 

The oh-so-flattering post-race photo

 

 

Addy hides in the curtains

 

Addy makes faces at the camera

 

Addy knows her shapes (mostly)

 

Kit not only pushes Addy on the swings, but plays with her WHILE pushing her on the swings.
