Addison is 2!

Addie LOVES popcorn. Love really doesn't encompass her passion, really. She is completely obsessed. Whenever we say the word "popcorn" she usually tenses up and shakes with excitement. It really can become a swear word if you don't mean to make her popcorn right when you say it, because if you don't, well, she will relentlessly BEG for it by repeating "popcorn popcorn popcorn". Once she has a bowl full, her hand does NOT stop grabbing handful after handful. She can honestly eat more popcorn than me (and I really can eat ALOT). So naturally, we had to have a POPCORN PARTY!!!

I honestly threw this together way too last minute, it was super fun making the popcorn cupcakes and cake. People tease me that I'll never been able to keep this up year after year for my kids, but honestly, I love birthday parties and I can't help myself. It's way too much fun!



Her face while we sang Happy Birthday was probably the cutest thing I have ever seen!

Waving and clapping with pure Joy. She looked like she was going to burst.


Yup, it's all about ME!!!


She kept throwing her arms up like this. And when she said "TWOOOO" her two fingers were crossed, it was priceless.


So much love for this crazy crowd!

Time for presents!

Renne loves to help with the opening

She is so cute it kills me!

A few quick things about Addison:
- Getting more chatty, LOVES to sing and uses more words when she's singing than any other time. (it's hard to keep up to Renne's constant chatter ;))
- Despite her ability to appear perfectly innocent, she loves to bug her sister and get her in trouble. It's usually really funny, but poor Renne is mostly just trying to play with her.
- She's doing awesome with her walking, still a little teetery at times, but trying to run around.
- Definitely hitting the "fun" aspects of being 2, but amazes us how she flips from her tantrums to being so sweet and happy right away.
- Loves nursery. It will be different for her now, as Renne is moving up to Sunbeams.
- Her favourite things to do are: have baths, EAT - literally almost anything, read books, play the piano and sing, cuddle when she's sleepy and yes, watching paw patrol!
