Addysen's 2nd Birthday

We had a really fun day, both of our Taylor's went with Addy and were pampered by getting nails painted. They are Logan's friends but have become Addysens friends too. One Taylor is 4 and the other Taylor is 6. Addy loves them and gave them each hugs after they were finished. They both were so kind and even gave her a present she felt so special!

I love my sweet baby girl! I never knew having a girl would be so much fun.
After getting our nails done we headed back home to meet up with Logan and Daddy. She immediately showed off her "pink nails" to the boys. We had Pizza for dinner and enjoyed her cake.

In the morning our sweet, dear friend from downstairs...we have adopted her and her family. She came up and brought Addy her own baby. Addy can't get enough babies, Grandma Dana sent one and she carries them both around. Diana has been a great joy in our lives here in Korea. I am so glad we have her.
Addy is 2...I still can't believe it. I know I did this blog post all backwards but at least I am getting it done. She says she is two but holds up 3 fingers it is so cute.
She was thrilled about this "Mickey" cake. I have to say I was thrilled about this cake too!! I think it looks so awesome. My husband is the best. All I did was cook the cake and frost it black and he did the rest. Addy got up on the table to get a close look and said "Mickey my favorite!"

My "hot" man at work! I love this picture....He is the best!
Couple hours after Addy woke up and had opened all her presents I found her carrying a stool over to her signs to get a closer look.
Addy loves her Cinderella costume and microphone that Grandma Pauleen sent it sings "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" and she sings every word right along with the fairy Godmother.
Logan is sporting the crown for Addy since she isn't so sure about it.
Logan was so much fun! He was such a big helper and having a total blast with Addy on her special day.

This girl is a character! We love her to pieces.
We had a small family party and it was one of my all time favorites. (Other than getting our nails done with friends.) All of us had a nice time making Addy feel special and loved on her birthday. I love having babies and she has been a true delight to be a mom too.
This was what Addy woke up to on May 18, 2010. She was super excited.
This isn't a bday picture and don't know how I got this in here but look at those lips!
Addy I am so glad you came to our family. You are so amazing and I don't know how I got so blessed to be your mother.

You might be two but people ask me all the time if you are 3...nope you are just this way all grown up! You get your own shoes on, your coat, you try to get dressed but sometimes get your pants on backwards.

You talk to me about everything. You are talking in full sentences. I wish I could list all the words and sentences you say but have so many! You really blow me away everyday with what you do and say. Some of the latest words you are using that make me laugh are "crazy, dude, my favorite, and awesome."

You tell me how you feel, what you need and how fast I need to do it! :-) You love to wrestle and run around crazy with Logan. You tell him "get me Logan get me"! You ask him where is his "tickle spot" and you lift your shirt up and show him your tickle spot. Addysen you bring so much joy and laughter into our home.

You and Logan are great friends, just the other day you were using blocks and both of you were laughing, talking and building huge towers. Once in a while you have a temper and stand your ground with Logan. It's sure hard not to laugh.

You love beating Logan to push the buttons in the elevator. You say "Amber" but it is always in an angry voice. It is so funny...I don't know why but we all crack up whenever you say it. You are this power house in a little itty body.

Addy you love to dance and sing. You are incredible you know every word to every song you hear in the car. You and Logan rock out and you even start requesting or better yet demanding the certain song you want.

You know a lot of your colors: red, blue, pink, purple, orange, black

You would drink chocolate milk all day long but I only let you have a little bit once a day. You enjoy going to play at the park, whenever we pull up to the park you start kicking and getting excited and saying "play at park yea, play at park!"

Every morning you ask me "where Daddy is?" then you answer your own question "at work"...I tell you yes and you say "Oh man or come home now!"

You went to nursery last Sunday and had fun for the first time. You told me Sunday morning "Addy go to her class, Logan class, Mommy & Daddy class, Addy class" So Spencer took you and sure enough you were ready to stay. You had fun playing with toys and coloring. The teacher said after wards and said "Addy sure talks good she came up to me and said "he pushed me here (pointing to your chest) ouch, hurt me". He wasn't getting away with bulling you around. :-)

I love how every time I do your hair or we put on an outfit you run over to Logan and Daddy and wait for your compliment. They are great about knowing your cues. It is hilarious, you are something else! I look forward to going home in October so all the family can see this fun, crazy, happy, girl we live with.

I thank my Heavenly Father for my little princess! Addy I love you and am so happy to be your Mommy. Logan & Daddy love you so much too. Thanks for being so great and changing our lives forever.
