Making Up for Lost Time

Halloween 2008

This is a self-pic from Addie while in the bathtub.
Getting ready for our first Halloween.
Playing on the bed before going to school.
Standing as usual. Still needs a little help though.
Addie was thinking about eating the pumpkin but didn't have the teeth.

We went down to our neighbor's house on the corner. They go all out. They loved Addie's costume. She was tired but she liked seeing them all dressed up.
Our neighbor's house was so decorated that people would drive up and stop to go trick-or-treating there. But they were in for a surprise. As the unsuspecting trick-or-treater walked up to the porch they had to get candy out of the bowl. Some were hesitant because there was a scary goblin watching over the treats. As the kids...and some adults reached for the candy, the goblin would suddenly come alive and defend her booty. With some patience, Lisa sat on the porch all night pretending to be a prop. That was until she would lurch out and scare the unsuspecting victims young and old alike. It was quite a spooky gag! Nice job Lisa.

Growing Up

Addie and I have been playing a little more together.
I'm still much bigger than Addie.
This is Addie getting ready for school this morning.
Gettin buckled in.
I could eat her if I felt like it.
Addie grabbing her toes...right before she puts them in her mouth.

Addie and Daddy playing on the couch.
Addie doesn't lay on daddy very often anymore. This is a rare photo.
Addie standing on Daddy's belly.
Smile!
Daddy's hiding behind Addie.
Ready to go walk. As you can see, it was chilly last night.
Playing with her dolly!
Mom thinks this picture looks like her when she was young.

Sleepy time.
