Photo a Day: Day 100: Wrestlemania

Every year Jared has a party for Wrestlemania. This year it was our family and Tony who attended. The big match was the Rock vs. John Cena. We placed bets on each match and all of us came out even in the betting game. There was a ton of great food. The funniest part of the day was when Josh wore a disco shirt to the party. When Jared saw him it was a riot. The Undertaker remains undefeated at Wrestlemania which made Quinton happy. Everyone enjoyed the drama of the greatest wrestling match of the year.

Photo a Day: Day 99: Painting

Addison was excited to paint a butterfly for her new babysitter Annabelle. She took great care to make the painting pretty for her. She loves to be creative and has a fairly long attention span for a four year old. Of course she got paint everywhere and headed straight into the bath afterward. A perfect Saturday morning project!

Another one of Mr. Beal's famous FAMILY projects was the Titanic Project. Q was given the name of an actual passenger on the Titanic to research and write a monologue about. Q's person was Father Robert James Bateman, a minister from Florida who lost his life on the Titanic. We made a three foot doll cut out of him and wrote a monologue of his life that Q is memorizing. As always it was Josh and I who did most of the work, but Q was proud of the results.

I think Addison inheirted my cold gene. She loves to cuddle up in front of the heater every chance she gets. She curls up into a little ball and just lets the warm heat rush out over her. If you don't know where she is be sure to check near the heater vents and you will be sure to find her!

Q and A always create new games to play together. This night they had two armies set up to battle each other. Somehow Q's side always seems to have the advantage, but Addison doesn't seem to mind. We are very blessed to have two kids who love each other so much and treat each other so well when they play together.

Addison pretended to be a little puppy this night. She had a bowl full of puppy food (pretzels) and a little bowl of water with a tinker toy straw that she was drinking and eating out of. We threw her little Scooby snacks and she would chase them all over the house and eat them. It is so fun to have this little girl entertain us every night with her imaginative play...there is never a dull moment with her around.

Photo a Day: Day 94: Brushing Teeth

Addison is the best about brushing her teeth. She always rushes into the bathroom to do it as soon as we suggest it. She has such a delightful spirit that makes it a joy to parent her. When we ask her to help us or do something she is quick to comply. Her quick smile is even brighter because of her ever clean teeth!
