Ready Set Go!


Sunday we had amazing weather! Sadly we wont be having too many more of these days. After watching conference Christian and I took Addy to the park. It was a little cool so she agreed to wear her hat (as long as I gave her a cookie) that aunt Ronna made her. She looked so cute! Addy had her fast running shoes on and was ready to play. She goes up the stairs and down the slide all by herself! Every time she gets to the top she says "ready set go." She is so proud of herself. When she gets to the bottom she runs over and gives us a high five and is back up the stairs again.
Christian took Addy up this big hill to roll down. He held her and they rolled together. She kept saying "again again!" They ran around wild. I really enjoy watching Christian and Addy play together. Addy was able to see some ducks, a frog, and a bunny while we were there. We are really going to miss our days at the park.
I took her back on Monday for 2 hours while we waited for Christian to come home. She met a little friend she kept calling "Buddy." He was a year older and wanted her to watch all of his cool tricks. She followed him all over the park. I love watching Addy interact with other kids. She is so happy to have someone to play with and follow around.

Cosley Zoo





These were some of Addy's favorite animals.


On Saturday Christian and I took Addy to Cosley Zoo. The animals there are mostly native to Illinois plus they have a few others. Addy loved seeing all the animals. The whole time we were there she kept saying "animals eat." She didn't like to get very close without one of us holding her. There is a train caboose that had fun learning activities inside, another of her favorites. Some other animals we saw there were: turtle, fox, hawk, owl, snake, coyote, and a white tail deer. We had a great day at the zoo!
