Edwards Everyday Moments: What we’re up to #3: Addison

This one is super silly and a total crack up. Yesterday she told me when she grows up she wants to be a peach or a french fry. She has to carry her purse with her everywhere and buckle her baby up in the extra seat in the van. She says that our new house is “lookin’ good” every time we drive up to it, and the days we don’t go there she tells us we should go check if the house is “lookin’ good”. And I could just keep listing little things that make us laugh on a daily basis. I will say it again, I love ages 3 and 4.

Addison is also beginning to join the big girls in many more activities. She went skating for the first time and did AMAZINGLY. I hate to say it, but she was better than Hailey (who has recently gotten very nervous about falling and creeps around the rink). Watching Addison skate was one of the cutest things I have ever seen, with her arms out to the sides just like the teacher told her to.

She finished her first unofficial year of preschool, which she is still mourning over. She always asks me when September will be here so she can go to preschool again. She’ll be in my class again next year, officially this time. This picture was at our last day picnic, and this boy Grant had called Addison “his girl” and held her hand throughout the year. They were quite the characters.

We are getting ready for my sister Ryann’s wedding and Addison will be the flower girl. I have been waiting SO LONG to have one of my girls be a flower girl, I am giddy about it. Oh yeah, and it’s cool that Ryann is getting married too:).

Addison is into laying around on things for long periods of time lately. Especially this Storage bench. She loves it and you will often find her like this during the day.

She is the little tagalong with this bunch of 9 kids that have been hanging out this week. All 9 are in swimming lessons together, so we have been hitting parks or hanging out after lessons. Addi is a little bit of a loner, but she doesn’t mind yet.

Swimming lessons were a big hit with Addison this week, and I was thrilled I didn’t have to get in the pool this year! She tended to smile through everything she did. Here she is with her instructor, Nathan, who she thought was named “wheat thin” the first couple of days.
