Happy Halloween!

Addy enjoyed her 1st Halloween with a busy weekend! Grandma Jeanie came up and stayed with us and watched Addy on Friday. Addy loves it when Grandma Jeanie comes to visit :) Then on Friday night we headed over to Ross & Molly's to carve pumpkins. The kiddos all had a blast picking out which patterns us parents would try to recreate! Then on Saturday we got the kids all together again to take pictures in their costumes.

Ime (cheerleader), Isaac (Lighting McQueen), Hudson (skunk) and Addy (ladybug)

The ladybug costume seems to be the "hit" for little kids this year as I saw ALOT of them...so just to be a little different Grandma Jeanie coined Addison as not only her "lovebug", but as her "Asian beetle" :) We stayed in (just a little change for us this year...ha/ha!) to hand out candy and enjoyed seeing all the kids from the neighborhood!

Addy LOVES her mobile

One of Addy's favorite things to do is lay under her mobile and "sing" along with it. Everytime I pull out the camera to catch her "in action" she stops when she sees it...so, this is the best I could do. It's super cute and Mom's got it down that the mobile runs for 4 1/2 minutes...so A LOT can get done in that timeframe :)

Catching up on Laundry...

Addy LOVES to help with laundry! Folding and putting away...

Daddy & Addy Weekend

This past weekend Mommy went on a girls weekend to Chicago so Daddy and Addy got lots of quality time together! Daddy made sure to document it all with his phone camera and text Mom updates throughout the weekend :) Dad had a full schedule planned of fun things to do which included lunch dates, a play date with Melena and Gangi, going to work with Dad including going to help him give his golf class final to his students and lastly a day with A-Ma & A-Ya! It was hard for Mom to leave, but just as exciting to get picked up at the airport by Dad & Addy!! Oh and the massive amount of shopping that was done with Sara & Denise helped ease missing Miss Addy :) Thanks to S. Bailey & D for a GREAT weekend! ...and thanks to all of Daddy's "helpers"; Kori, Lamar, Melgaard, Beth & Diane :)

Addy's fav shirt..."the drama starts here"!

Just a lazy Sunday...

I love Sundays in the Fall...football on in the background and just lazing around the house! Well today we decided to take advantage of all the Minnesota sports action going on TV. Our neighbors had extra tickets for the Twins game, but we opted to stay in and enjoy being home for once!! Of course Addy had to make some appropriate outfit changes for the Vikes and Twins games. We hope you're all enjoying this Sunday as well!

Pink is the Twins REAL color :)

U fo MN Homecoming

This year homecoming was a little different with Gopher football being back on campus. The homecoming parade and pepfest were held on Friday night. We decided to brave the cold with Addy for the parade as we just had to see Dad's Rec Sports float that he'd been "working on" ALL WEEK!! Addy was bundled in a million layers and snug close to Mom thanks to the Golden Gopher sling that Grandma Jeanie made for us! We lasted just in time to see Dad run by in a referee outfit...too funny...and give us some candy :) We then woke up bright and early and headed back to campus with the Omang's for tailgating and the football game. Addy lasted about an hour at tailgating and then Dad took her to A-Ma & A-Ya's house for some grandparent spoiling while Mom and Dad enjoyed the game!!

Addison's Baptism

Addison was baptized at our church, St. Joseph the Worker, last Sunday, Oct. 4th. Addy's Godparents are Auntie Molly & Auntie Kristina. We decided to have Addy immersed for her baptism and it was a pretty cool experience. My biggest fear, of course, was that she'd "shat" in the baptismal font...but the good news is, that didn't happen!! She was fast asleep and was rudely awaken by Deacon Kevin when she got dipped three times :) Oh did the tears come!
