March 2010 Hike to the second bridge...

We got an invitation to Addison's school to join the class and on a hike to the second bridge and have a snack. Up until this moment Addison has only been on hikes to the first bridge so this was going to be an new adventure all together. Daddy was able to join her on the special outing. When we were reading the invitation to Addison she squealed with excitement and said, "Daddy they built another bridge." We smiled. The joy of adventure. Finding treasures along the way. Checking out the view from the second bridge. Sitting with her classmates to have a snack....
and some juice. Damien had a great time hiking with Addison and her school. He was very happy with her great behavior and thought it was so cute how when the teachers talk all the kids stop, look and listen. Another great day at preschool. She took a great nap when she got home that day.

Annabell- Addison, Greyson and Daddy were outside playing in the yard when Addison came running into the house boots and all to report that she found some antlers for Dot to be Annabell. She was so excited. She flung her boots and ran to the play room to find a scarf to tie the antlers to Dot's head so she could be a reindeer just like on Annabell. Such a creative little lady.

February 2010 Play area at Addison's School

At Addison's preschool there is a natural play area where the kids explore and invent their own toys. The kids saw some rocks so they arranged them to be in a circle so now the kids hop on and off the rocks. Greyson, Addison and I spent a few minutes exploring one day after school. It was a really neat seeting and Addison loved showing us all the inventions the kids had created.
The play house made of sticks, like a little nest.

February 2010 Caspar Baby Pants in concert. Yeah!!

Our friend emailed to inform us of a free kid concert at Wheelock. I quickly wrote it on the calendar and couldn't wait for this fun event that focused on silly kids songs that parents can enjoy too. The singers were once part of the band The Presidents of the United States so their voices are great. The kids and adults had a great time. It was hard not to dance and move as you see Finley and Addison were hardly ever seated.
I think Addison and Finley were the first kids to jump up and start dancing.
It only took a few minutes. Baby Tula and Erin enjoying the music too.
