Sleeping like a...CAT??!!

                                 BEFORE                                                                              AFTER

Addison and her partner in crime catching a few zzzzz's.
Usually, Addison likes to lure the cat into her room by making noises or shaking a treat can ( Yes, she has one by the side of her bed ) an usually Reese is a willing participant :)

I must mention, that after the 2nd picture was taken, the cat left the bed!!

This is what a 4 hour delay looks like.

Let it snow...let it snow...let it snow...

Trying to catch a snowflake on her tongue

Outside the window letting me know she was ready to come in

The first snow of the season, and boy it is COLD and WINDY!

Naturally, Addison wanted to go out and catch a snowflake, so we bundled her up and out she went. She only lasted about 3 minutes before coming in. I lasted less than a minute :)

Happy (Late) Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving we went to the Dixie Stampede in Branson. We had a blast and Addison was mesmerized by the entire show she didn't even eat!!

GO BEARS!

Addison and Daddy wearing ALL the Bears gear that she could find, for the 3rd pre-season game. She said that she is the Bear's cheerleader, so she was running around the house yelling "GO BEARS!!!"

First Day of Preschool (again) Aug. 09

Yet again, we have encountered her first day of preschool, this time in Missouri. We were tossing around the idea of starting in her kindergarten this year, but Missouri doesn't test out and she needed to be 5 to begin.. I guess this just made our decision easier.

At first Addison wasn't very cooperative, but I enticed ( ok, bribed ) her with a special toy and McDonald's after school, to get her all dressed up. It worked and I got the look I was going for :)

She wasn't too excited to go, but I know once she is there she will do just fine.

Once we got to school, we found her cubby and put her backpack away. Her cubbie is under her good friend Kay-lee's, so that is nice. Although they are sitting at different tables.

Next, we found her seat and she immediately started coloring with the crayons and paper sitting in front of her.

I gave her a hug and kiss and told her not to have too much fun, and off I went :)

Ahhh..finally, some peace and quiet...
Now what??
