back to school

Trav and I are both back to being full time students.....STRESSFUL! And our sweet baby girl started daycare, she is loving it. The daycare is only a block from our house so we will pull out and go the other way and she freaks out saying she wants to go to "a-care and play with my friends" and then when i go to pick her up she freaks out and says "no go home, i play." its sad but im glad she is loving it.

This is Trav's last semester at ISU, he is going for an Associats in applied Science. And has applied to the Paramedic program at CSI, so we will find out in the next couple of weeks if we move.

That also means... Im changing my major, im thinking Surgery Tech. but we will see how it goes.

But all and all we are doing great! stressed but enjoying it!!

hello spring?

Well this last week Trav came home Monday sick gave it to Addy and then to me... So it has been a very long week. Addy is now in Challis with her Grandma Brantner and playing with dogs and her grandparents and Aunt she doesn't get to see that often.

My tiny baby girl will be 2 in less then a month, I'm not sure if i should be happy or sad, the time has flown by.

My Darling husband graduates on the 6th of May. I am so proud of him for all the hard work and enthusiasm that he has done and has for the program!

Addy got some pink cowgirl boots and refuses to take them off. I tried to "hide" them from her because they are 2 sizes to big and after searching for them for half an hour she went to her Daddy bowling and he gave in. She will not go anywhere without her boots, she even insists on wearing them to church(her Daddy thinks its cute.)

Well again life has gone crazy and we have not had time to get around to updating our blog, so here we go.

Thanksgiving was amazing Addy thought it was so much fun! We had 3 different dinners and that just meant that she got to play with her cousins that much more!

2 days before Christmas Addy got her finger amputated in the gears of a wheel chair lift and lost the first joint of her middle finger on her right hand. She took it a lot better then her mommy and daddy, but we are all doing a lot better now.
She has healed really good and she is using her hand like nothing ever happened.

Christmas, well we had 2! one at our house and one up and Grandma and Grandpa Cox's, our little girl loved opening about the first 4 gifts and then started playing with her new toys so it took a long time to get all the gifts opened.

New years we spent with with Grandma and Grandpa Cox Addy was in bed by 10:30 and then back awake by 1 she decided that since we decided since we didn't let her see the ball drop we wouldn't get to see a good nights sleep.

We are now getting ready for Daddy's birthday!!!! Addy does not like going into a store and not going into the toy section, poor little girl:(

Happy Halloween!

We have still been able to do a little bit for Halloween even with school! Addy helped make her first pumpkin this year! It was so funny, we would tell her to reach in and take the "stuff" out and she would start to reach in and fill it and quickly pull her hand out. Before we could start carving the pumpkin Addy did her own version of carving. It was scary but cute.
The pumpkin had lips all over it when it was done. Addy went to bed shortly after helping clean it.

Addy is "Snow white" this year, the costume is so cute, it is like a tutu, and she loves to watch the tutu bounce as she walks. She also loves to wear it, lucky for her Mommy and Daddy! Trav and I have also been working with Addy trying to teach her to say "trick-or-treat" and today she ran into the kitchen after Trav and said "treat" and he was doing something else so she followed him around saying "dada" "daddy" "da" until he finally was able to help her and she said "treat"

October

Well life has been way crazy, Trav and I are both back in the full swing of school, Trav is loving school he says it is more like playing everyday! Me on the other hand, working my butt off, but doing good in my classes!
Addy is doing amazing she is now 17 months and so beautiful! She is talking up a storm, and is running and so silly!
Addy and I have taken on a new adventure in life! during the day we watch a little boy(I take night classes)!! Addy loves him so much, all day is full of hugs and kisses, very slobbery but still kisses! We both love the little man so much, and it is nice to be able to help out some wonderful friends!
The family also went down to North Carolina the end of July through the beging of August! We went so Addy and I could get to know Travs real parents and sister and to have some fun with them, we went to Busch Gardens, Addy learned the music so we would be walking in and she would get way excited! She also loved riding on the rides her size! this is a picture of Grandpa helping her on to one of the rides. We also went to the beach and had a blast! Addy was so cute playing in the water! It was a good fun vacation and we had fun with The Ward side of the family.
The end of August we celebrated our 2nd anniversary! Well kind of, we really couldn't due much due to the fact that school started the next day. But we did enjoy a wonderful dinner!

hehehe life

Well our lives have gone completely insane. just a few little parts, We baught a new bike (Trav decided he had to have it.), Addy now has a "big girl seat" and she loves it!, We celebrated Addy's first birthday. that is just some of the major high lights.

More is to come as soon as i upload pictures.....

LIFE

Well many things have happened in your life since i blogged last!!

Travis and I are both full time students at ISU he is still going for law enforcement and i am going for massage therapy. we made it so we wouldn't have to get a baby sitter or do day care, so our sweet little girl gets to hang out on campus 3 days a week, she loves all of the attention she gets. the best part about it is i only have classes until 12 which is her nap time, so i get out go get her from Trav so he can run to his class and go home. its kind of crazy but it isn't that bad.

Addysn decided to start crawling my first day of class, January 13, so of course i missed it, it made me cry and get mad. but it is still way cute and amazing! she is now also standing by herself!!

Addysn also got her first Oreo and she was so cute with it, she made a huge mess but it was just to cute not to share! i thought this picture was priceless!


during basketball season we would take Grandpa Hamilton to the games and Addy loved them, she also had fans that thought she was just the cutest thing!

We had to go up to Oakley to fix one of the sinks and Addysn wanted her daddy and wouldn't let go of him, so she helped him fix the sink, in her own special way!

the institute had a Valentines day dance that we went to and trav asked me in the cutes way. i told him that he had to be creative he said that his asking was "so do you want to go to the basketball game or the dance." he said it wasn't, but he surprised me with this on the day of the dance!

and of course Addy's crazy camera happy mommy had to get a picture of her with Benny the Bangle she thought he was soft and liked to pet him!

Well if mommy only has 3 years until she graduates and Daddy only has 2.5 and I'm here everyday with them, then how long is it until i get to graduate? (check out the cute back ground!)

Disneyland

We went to Disneyland for thanksgiving and had a ball! We were there for 6 long days, that were good for the most part. we shared a house with the family(13 people and 2 bathrooms don't work).
we also flew so it was Trav and Addysn's first time on a plane it was so cute.Addy had a ball she was able to ride most of the rides, and really enjoyed them! she also loved ALL of the attention that she got from all the characters, it was so cute she would give them kisses on there noses and pet them; and with Pluto she pulled on his whiskers, he thought it was funny. but we learned with loud things and lots of screaming children she does not do good with at all, she freaked with the shows.
it was way fun to go with the family though because some of the rides Addy couldn't go on and we wanted to the family would watch her so we could it was way fun! we loved the picture we got of addy with mini because they were able to get her to smile!

so cute

last time i saw my grandma she told me that she had bought something for Addysn that she thought that Addy really needed to be protected. Its way cute Addy looks so precious in them and she dosen't touch them and she looks was cute in them! Trav and i think that she is the cutest little girl in this world! So Addy now has her very own sunglasses that fir her perfect, well kind of she has a cute little button nose, so they slide down her nose.

Anyways Addy is a happy, healthy little girl. she is over 6 months old weighs 13.4 pounds and 24 inches long! and still wearing 0-3 month clothing. Doctor Beckett says that she is just a perfect little petite girl, and that she just keeps getting more adorable by the day!

and just a cute close up of Addy's sweet smirk, she was mad and crying so i started taking pictures and this is a cute look that i got from her!

Fall Pictures of Addy Bear

We had pictures of Addy taken tonight by the Amazing Krista and A.J.(we appreciate them for all they do for us)!! My Aunt Joy made her a matching outfit it consists of a bonnet, booties, and a sweater! we went out today and everyone kept telling us that our little girl looked like a doll and was "so adorable." (we already knew that.) But wanted to get pictures taken to capture her in film....again! and because her mommy is kind of obsessed with her!

Splish splash!!!

Addysn hates bath time. Can you tell?

Daddy's favorite

Okay so I just really wanted a chance to blog so I am. These are some of my favorite pics of my little girl.

The cutest onezie ever!!!

So Trav was working at the POW-MIA rally and found this onezie. The cutest ever.

to cute not to share

tonight mom didn't feel like cooking, so we delivered my Avon, and went up to Blackfoot so i could cook dinner! Every one liked it i was so pound of myself(even picky little toad said it was delicious!!!)!! so mom said she would do desert; we had twinkies, oreo's and short breads. i tried to have a twinky, but i was talking to mom and when i looked back at Addy had attacked my twinky and "ate" more of it then i did, we grabbed the Camera and took a picture!! Daddy's comment "little theifer!"

many things have happend

well life is going wonderful! Addy is getting big she is now five months old(still wearing 0-3 month). Our family is finally an eternal family! And we had our one year anniversary!

starting
the 4th of July! Addy slept through the show, so she has no clue what fire works look like. but i got beautiful pictures of her!

we were coned into being in the pioneer day parade for the ward(all three of us). the theme was "it doesn't matter how you get there, just enjoy the journey." Addy took the spot light! we all thought it was way cute!

Mom decided the day was too hot, and decided that we should go swimming. so we all loaded up the troops and headed up to Lava for the day. Addy wasn't so sure what to think because she kept getting splashed. and then she fell asleep. but it was still fun

Trav and i did really good for a while about getting out and walking! and of course the camera always tagged along! one of the days we went it was way hot, so i had Addy in her Dipper and a huge red bow i thought she look precious. trav told me not to take the pic, so this is what i got(its now one of his favorites!). and of course to make me happy he did what i asked and held her!

Trav got into a streak that he wanted to cuddle Addy before bed at night. i would say ok and go do something else i would walk back into the bedroom a few minutes latter and see this. she would always sooth him to sleep! that is with her moving ad wiggling!

One night Trav was trying to do his homework and Addysn decided that she had to have him. so i asked if he would and she helped him do his homework. he thought that it was just way cute and so did i. she sat there staring at the computer and then would look up at Daddy "talk" and look at the laptop again.

We bought this shirt before Addy was born because how she acted already. we have learned that it was the best thing for her! it says"Daddy's little princess." i saw it when i was pregnant and had to get it! it has fit both of them perfect!

I was feeding Addy on the bed and playing on the laptop, and she feel asleep while i was feeding her; so i went and got ready to go, and all of a sudden heard music coming from the bed room(i had left it on facebook.) so i came back into the room and found this, i thought it was awesome and ran and grabbed the camera!

Addy was blessed by her amazing Daddy!! she looked so beautiful! her Grandma Bonnie made her the amazing blessing dress(i was positive that i was going to loose her in it, but didn't!!) her dress doubled also as her sealing dress, and she looked stunning for both. she made Trav and i cry. these are two of the pictures that i feel in love with!!

Bears getting her I-teeth first. she loves cold things, and the other night Trav took me out for ice cream. Ya Bear ate more of it then me. it was kind of sad, but made for some way cute pictures!! she just loved it! so it made it worth it to me to share with her

we started feeding Addy-Bear baby food the other day; she got pears to begin with and thought they were amazing! she of course made a huge mess, and i was feeding her on the love seat(it didn't get dirty) but she got a bath right after

and one to just show of my beauty
