Happy Valentine's Day and Addie is 11 Months old!! 

Monday: Ayson and Addie playing on the floor together.  Addie likes to touch Ayson's hair and she was getting a kick out of touching his  feet.  Ayson thought it tickled :)



Daddy and his babies.


Wednesday:  Daddy made a double chocolate fudge tart...for Mommy so that she could take it to work for a lunch party (Yes, Mommy is Very spoiled:)   ANYWAY, we sampled some of the melted butter and chocolate mixture...yum! 
Addie looks like she is wearing very dark lipstick...yikes!



Ayson and the plane he built all by himself!



Daddy showing Ayson how to play guitar



Mommy's Three Loves.



Um, Yeah...Daddy and Ayson "rocking out"



Thursday: Daddy gave all three of us Valentine's cards.

Ayson loved the Sponge Bob stickers!




Friday:  Hanging out with Daddy...it almost looks like they are dancing!



Saturday:
Mommy making Addie smile for the camera!



Sunday: Mommy and her Baby Doll!



A round of "This Little Piggy" for Addie had Ayson pulling his socks off and wanting in on the game.

Everyday Blessings

Another great week for A^4.  Addie has started to cruise the furniture (still not crawling, though) and loves to mimic everyone she sees.  Ayson reminds us to get his breakfast ready for him the night before (so we don't forget). 

Monday:  Ayson insisted on wearing his Superman t-shirt.  In this picture, he just climbed up on Daddy's shoulders.

Look at those LEGS!!

Mumma!  That's MY butt!

Giddy up, Daddy and look, I'm Superman!  Daddy let Ayson watch parts of Superman last weekend and Ayson LOVED it!

Mommy and her babies.

Tuesday:  a picture before we head out the door in the morning.

Wednesday: Up High!  Addie now plays "Up High-Down Low" with us when we lift our arms up and down.

Thursday:  Ayson showing off his spinning heart flashlight and cookie that he got from Grandma Pat and Grandpa Roger for Valentine's Day.  Addie loved the cookie too!  Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! 

Friday:  Look at that smile!

Saturday:  Mommy put Addie in the laundry basket while she was checking on laundry and Ayson wanted to help too.

Ayson's new gloves prevent snow from getting on his wrists...the gloves are supposed to go up to the elbows and not the armpits:)

Shirt number 2 on Saturday...but look at that smile...

Popcorn and pop (well, caffeine free and diet) while watching a show before bedtime.

Sunday:
Ayson finally fits into his tool apron that Mommy and Daddy's friends Doug and Sue gave him. 

By Saturday morning, we had about 9 inches of snow.  Sunday warmed up and the snow packed down to about 5 inches and was perfect for snowballs and snowmen.

Addie's first snowman.

Daddy giving Addie a lift :)

Addie's first taste of snow.  In addition to 2 teeth that have already cut through, 2 more on top are starting and another one is showing though on the bottom...poor baby doll.  All of her teeth are coming in at once!

How Was Your Day and Another Tooth

Ayson has started to ask us how our day was because he hears Mommy and Daddy ask each other that question everyday. We both agree that our days significantly improve once we get to see our little ones!  Addie is no longer a snagle tooth!  An upper right tooth is cutting through but Addie does not seem to mind.

Monday:  Ayson put on his backpack and declared "Mumma!  I'm off to school!"

Another picture where all THREE are smiling!

Tuesday:  Ayson and Daddy resurrecting an old flip trick.

Wednesday:  Floor time with Daddy.

Addie was waving (her hand up and down) to Mommy

Thursday:  Addie watching Ayson put the shield on his Turbo Fighter.

Look at Baby Doll's cheeks!  Mommy loves to kiss them :)

Ayson hiding form his Turbo Fighter as it was walking towards him.

Another great smile from Mommy's Big Guy!

Ayson and Daddy playing catch and Ayson is finally catching the ball!  When we have tried to play catch in the past, Ayson would just let the ball hit him in the chest.  Look at that smile:)  We were all so excited!! 

So excited that Mommy lifted Addie up and up...

and UP!

Addie:  "Mommy, stop hugging me and do it AGAIN!"

Saturday: Ayson helping Daddy unpack groceries.  Well, he acutally just stacked them in the middle of the kitchen :)

On Sunday, Daddy and Ayson went sledding.  Love the sunglasses but Mommy wonders if Ayson could see much out of them or if they got all fogged up.

Man, Mommy remembers the thrill of the ride down but then trudging up the hill on the way back...wishing for a pulley system...or a Daddy to pull me back up the hill!

Mommy and Addie checking out the birds at the suet feeders...a favorite weekend pastime!
