Summer Recap 3: Addison

Better late than never, it’s Addison’s turn. I love, love, love her right now. She is still in my favorite age/stage (except I do love the babies!). She was so fun this summer.

♥She still takes naps every day, but we can skip it if necessary. She will just be a bit emotional that night… or sometimes more than a bit.

♥She has a very sensitive nose. Often proclaims places “stinky,” and she can’t handle it.

♥Every time we are in the car she wants to play the animal game (guess what animal she is thinking of) or “I spy”. She also is constantly coming up with “would you rather” questions. Such as, “Would you rather live in a marshmallow or a tree?”

♥She loves her friend Ava, next door. They are peas in a pod, and so cute together. They are generally dressed up and playing house or school.

♥She took swimming lessons again this year at Henry Moses, but would not put her head under water. She became deathly afraid of doing it. She is ok with you splashing her like crazy or water spraying her face, but not going under water.

♥Besides the head under water, she is a pretty brave girl. It only took a few times of us walking her down the zipline before she was going on her own.

♥She was able to do a lot of what the big kids could do this summer. She has always had to be the observer, but now she can often participate.

♥I wish I could stop her from growing anymore. I get teary-eyed just thinking about how big my baby is getting.
