Nieces and Nephews!

I PROMISE the next post will have Addison Sue pictures. I feel the need to go in order. I am behind and still playing catch up.

Tad and I had a play date last week. He came over on Wednesday and played at our house for awhile. It was so much fun. He even wanted to go swimming! He stuck his feet in the water and that was as far as he got. IT WAS COLD!! He decided that the water hose would do and for the next 30 minutes he chased me around the yard with it laughing at me. To cute... little turkey!

Tad is doing really well with Addison. He is always gentle with her and seems secure with himself. Last night, Uncle Ben laid Addison down by Tad. Tad was so proud! Addison is doing great! Her tummy problems are gone for the most part, and everyone seems to be doing well! We are so happy to have her join our family. What a blessing she is. Can't wait for Bradlea!! Ryan needs to get the calendar up so we can start our pool. Bryan won with Addison. $5 entry fee... so he made off pretty good.

It is time again for October birthdays! This weekend we are celebrating Kirk's birthday in Stillwater. On Monday, we are celebrating my Grandpa's. Those are just getting the month started. Following is Megan's, Mom's, Dad's and Bryan's. Next year we will add Addison to the list!

Louie Update: Louie is still hanging in there. Not much progress, but he is not getting worse either. If this medication does not work, I am not sure what our next steps will be. The OSU vet clinic has been amazing. They have gone above and beyond anything I could have asked. I truly appreciate each and every one of them.


And now to what you really check my blog for:

Below: During our play date, Tad found last year's trophy. (Ryan won last year). By the way, if you win three years in a row you get to keep the trophy.



Below: Tad and I were playing in the car and he found my old lifeguard whistles. It took him a little bit, but I taught him how to blow the whistle... and then sent one home with him. :)
Below: Play time at Grandma's!!
Below: Tad was showing everyone his new skills!
Below: That horse zooms around Grandma's house now! It was not long ago that his little feet could barely reach the floor.
Below: Determined driver. LOL
Below: Tad climbed up on this bucket all by himself. He was so proud.
Below: Then Mom helped him jump off!

Below: Posing for the camera.
Below: Tad has no fear. He jumps off of everything these days!
Below: In the series of pictures below, Tad had everyone come to him for his goodnight kiss. He doesn't have us wrapped around his little finger does he? Oh come on... WE LOVE IT!!!


Below: Grayson loves to play football. Such a cutie pie!
Below: Alyssa's future in football is still questionable. :)
Below: Alyssa and her Mom were reading a book.

Take Care!
