Happy Birthday Addison!

Addie is now officially 4 years old! I can't believe how fast the time has gone. It seems like I was just staring at her in the hospital :) She is our little independent helper. She likes to be on the go and loves her friends and family. Some days she acts like she is 18 years old and is a great little buddy to have around. She loves jewelry, shoes, clothes, to shop, swim, ride her bike, play with her friends, pedicures and talking on the phone. I am so thankful to be her mother.
We had a full day, just the way she likes it! After the airport we let her pick the restaurant for lunch...Cheesecake Factory! No complaints from anyone :) This is where she bonded with Josh when he taught her how to suck beans out of a straw!
After lunch we headed back to my parents for presents & dessert. (Addie was very specific about wanting the chocolate cake from Cheesecake Factory for her birthday!)
Every time we go to the bank she asks me when someone is going to give her money that she can take to the bank. She was thrilled that grandma & grandpa Cutler gave her "some cash" that we could deposit into her bank account.
That night we went bowling with our families. We had a great time and Addie loved being with her cousins, aunts and uncles.
Saturday was the last celebration of turning 4! We had a birthday party for her at Nielsen's Grove. I was so thankful that it didn't rain and we had great weather for the party.
