4 Years Old!


Happy Birthday, Addison! Our girl is 4 years old. We had a great weekend celebrating her little life. We were so thankful for the houseful of helping hands we had as we turned our house into the North Pole for a “Santa’s Workshop” party. An especially big thanks to BopBop for spending HOURS tying strings on snowflakes!




Addison discovered Grans's necklace before the party, and did not want to take it off.
The kids came downstairs and wasted no time digging in to the cookie decorating setup!



Although both of our children were terrified of Santa, he did make an appearance.

This cute little guy walked in the door, grabbed Addison’s hand and jumped right into the festivities. He also kept giving her kisses! We’re going to have to keep an eye on him!

The kids also enjoyed some great snuggles and lovin' from all 4 of their grandparents and enjoyed having everyone around for a few days.



And although we have no pictures of it, we, of course, celebrated the exciting Heisman win of RG3! The kids were clapping and cheering, even though they didn't really know why. Then Austin breaks out with a "Yay, Sic 'em Bears!" Maybe he did know after all.

It's hard to believe it's already been 4 years since this little bundle joined our lives. For some reason this year I did a lot more reflecting and remembering our experience, thinking about what we were going through this time 4 years ago. I have to say, 4 years ago I may have been pleasantly surprised at what life looks like now. However, I'm really glad I'm on this end of things!
