Misses Potato Head

Addison is developing quite a little personality. This past week I was on the computer and she walked over to me looking like this:

She just laughed and laughed when I laughed at her. Then yesterday I watched her hide the Hippo puzzle piece under the couch pillow. She ran over to me in the kitchen and said "Mommy where's hippo? I can't see him" I said "I don't know" We play this game a lot but this time she ran and got the blue potato head glasses put them on and then lifted the pillow and then said "I see hippo now"

This is the cave that her dinosaurs go in and she got in it and Keith kept saying say cheese. She would poke her face through just enough to see.

Today she is telling me "Mommy calm down" and patting my leg. I don't know where she gets these things! She keeps me laughing that's for sure.

A Date at the Zoo

This Saturday we met the Colbert's at the Zoo. The day started off playing in the Paws On area in the water. They had so much fun. The buckets at the beginning were plentiful and as more kids arrived the buckets became harder to get a hold of not that you can tell by the pictures. Gabe did good playing with the other kids and Addison didn't want anyone to touch her stirring thing (spoon). After playing in the water it was off to feed the Giraffes. At first we thought we had missed our chance and then just when we were about to give up one came back and Gabe did a great job feeding him. Addison usually loves feeding them but this time she didn't want to wait for him to come to her so she threw them at him. So that was the end of that. Both Addison and Gabe wanted to walk most of the way and at one point held hands. They really are very cute together. Addison is very excited to have many play dates with Gabe this summer! Hopefully, next time she will try to impress him with her stellar GOOD manners!!
