Tennessee Cinderella Prelim - September 2013

And it's time for the opening of the 2013-2014 Cinderella season. This year Addison is now in the "big girl" division (Tiny Tot.) Everything changes for her now. She not only has group interviews but she also has on stage interviews BY HERSELF! I was so so so so nervous but she did amazing! She got on stage and answered all the questions that Ms. Jill asked her even if some of her answers were really quiet and funny. I was worried that she'd get on stage and freeze up like her mommy does but she did so good and mommy is so proud!

Middle school reunion

This wasn't really a middle school reunion but it was a midd school friend's 30th birthday. We had a little click in middle school that also went over to high school and I love these people. I don't get to see them as often as I would like but I know that they're always there for me if I was to need them and the same goes for them as well. It was really good to see them again and Happy Birthday Derrick!

Loverboy concert at the TN Valley Fair 2013

Every year the Tennessee Valley Fair has a concert series and they always have back in the day bands. This year one of them was Loverboy so me and my Daddy went and ran into an old boss of mine, April. I only knew a few of their songs but these are always fun to go to and can't wait till next year.

First day of daycare!

Title says it all. Addison started daycare/preschool! She did so awesome! She's now been there about 4 months and has not really had a breakdown yet. She's been tired and not wanted to stay a few times but those are few and far between. She loves being there with other kids her age and has already designated the "best friend". :) She's going to a Christian daycare which I absolutely love!

First successful dentist appointment!

Addison has had a dentist appointment before but it didn't go so well. She cried and we had to hold her down while the dental assistant put fluoride on her teeth. This time we had a perfect appointment!!! She watched her brothers sit in the chair and she jumped right up there and sat with them. She left the assistant clean her teeth and Jacob sat there and kept an eye on her the whole time. Then she went and watched Jacob and Eli get their teeth cleaned and got her brand new tooth brush. She did so good! So proud of her!

A nickle? Seriously?!

So I'm sitting at one of my pool games one night and my dad calls me to tell me that Eli needs to talk to me (apparently he's in trouble.) He puts Eli on the phone and I ask him what he did and his reponse is "I swallowed a nickle." They tell me this so calmly because this isn't the first time. He swallowed a quarter last time. At least he's stepping down...LOL Off to the ER we went. That was not a fun 4 hours just to be told that he's going to have to pass it on his own. $500 later I might add too. That's one expensive nickle. Hopefully he passed it but I'm still not completely sure. LOL

Dance class

Addison started dance class this summer and she absolutely LOVES it! She's doing a mix between tap, ballet, and gymnastics. It's already taught her how to turn flips and she knows several ballet moves. She loves wearing her leotard and tutu and is having her first performance this January. Can't wait!
