Happy Birthday to our sweet baby girl, Addyson Grace!
You are 3 years old today!
You have become the most precious being to us and we have loved watching you grow!
You are so smart. Sometimes too smart for your own good at times but it's been so amazing to see you learn things and problem solve.
You love Dora still but you have some new ones out there too. You have really taken a liking to the Disney Princess', Strawberry shortcake, Team Umizoomi and you still like Bubble Guppies everynow and then.
You love being outside. There wasn't much snow this winter but you had a couple moments in the snow that you loved.
You are a big helper too! You love to put away your laundry, you take groceries out of their bags and lay everything on the table for me, and recently you like to help take the recycables to the curb and help bringing it back!
You prefer to sleep in our bed and this really seemed to have changed within the past year. About the time when we changed your crib out to a toddler bed and then a twin bed. We took the door knob cover off and decided to let you decide when you were ready to be in your bed all night. You make it usually to about 230 AM and then you crawl into our bed. You have had some nights where you stayed in your room all night and we were so proud of you! You are slowly earning your stickers for a reward! Mommy and Daddy haven't been bothered by you sleeping with us. We all seem to get a good nights rest together and you wake up so happy. I know you feel safe and secure with us and I would never want you to feel otherwise.
We are slowly working on one of us staying in your room with you now though. They say it takes 21 days to create a habit and we are trying to help you feel safe and secure in your bedroom now. We know you are ready and you do love your room.
You love reading your books in your room.
You are getting more into playing with your dollies and acting like a mommy to them! You get them their bottles and you hold them so nicely! You like working at your art easle too!
Your diet hasn't been the best but we have been told that this is typical for toddlers your age. You eat, peanut butter sandwiches, chicken nuggets, noodles, soup, waffles, pancakes, all fruits, cucumber, celery and dip, pretzels, chips, cookies, green beans, pickles, and most snacks. You have really started getting into dips! I like this because its one of mommy's favorite snacks too!
You still love having your snack times with daddy and hanging out with him. You love playing your kick ball game with him in the basement too. You have a great left foot kick! I think you would love to play soccer! We are looking into a good soccer program for you but for now the backyard will do!
We have fun painting our nails, or snails, like you call them!
We go shopping, even though lately you haven't been the best at this. You would rather be doing other things than shopping!
You are in a size 4t for tops, 3t for bottoms and going into a size 9 in shoes. You are still under 30 pounds but one tall green bean! You are our little skinny minnie!
Well baby girl, you are now a 3 year old! We cannot wait to see what the next year brings!
Love
Mommy & Daddy
