I would like to share some things from Adelade's life from her first birthday to her second.
The day after her first birthday, September 29, 2008 Addy started walking. Then came running, jumping with one foot and right before her 2nd birthday jumping with both feet all over the place.
Addy loves to run, dance, going on walks, do somersaults, fly, ride bikes, go to parks, loves to spell park, home, cake and any other words we feel like.
Addy loves having friends. She loved her little friend in Provo, Jane and then when we moved she found 2 new friends Gabby and Lucy. She talks about them all the time, even in her sleep.
Addy was an excellent sleeper until we moved here to Vegas. She slept about 11-12 hours and now she sleeps about 9-10, on a rare occasion she will sleep longer. She also loves her big bed.
For about 6 months she would only let me since one song to her at night time and would want me to sing it 5 times. It is a song from signing time called Special to Me.
Addy learned to swim and loves to do it anywhere she goes. She will even lay down on a floor that has a little spilled water on it and yell out "I'm swimming"! She even swims in the bath tub! She also will float on her back all over the pool and bath.

She is very independent. If you try to help her do something she will tell you "No, Self".
She loves to giggle, and fake cry.
She loves to pretend to pull body parts off of you and eat them. Sometimes she will tell you what it tastes like and sometimes she will spit it out.
Addy loves animals but only from a distance.

She loves to read and gets 10 new books from the library every other week.
She learned to go potty on her own but doesn't like to do it all the time.
She likes to say "I tooted", then "excuse me".
She loves lotion and to put it on by herself.
She can dress herself, with just a little supervision.
Addy loves to wear flowers in her hair and will pick her own out to wear everyday. (good thing I make them)
She is very girlie and loves to wear Necklaces, Bracelets and has to have her Fingernails and toes painted every Saturday night to get ready for church.
She still loves Mo but has to sleep with Mo1, Mo2, puppy, giraffe, blanket and princess cup.
She likes to be the center of attention.
For a while she was obsessed with watching the same Wiggles video everyday but now it is Yo Gabba Gabba and Little Bear.
She also loves Signing Time and I swear she is smarter because of that show!.
She loves to cook.
She loves to eat, spaghetti, hot dogs, chicken, cheese, sausage, pizza, dried cherries, anything with sugar, Any and all fruit all the time.

Addy loves to help me clean. She will even get a wipe out of my purse when we are out and clean something there.
She Has been able to put her shoes on by herself since she was 18 months.
She knows left from right.
She does not like snow and she gets really tan in the sun.
I love everything about her. I think my favorite thing is night time. Se tells me she loves me This Much, with her arms stretched out to the sides. She Gives me three kisses every night, Regular kiss, Butterfly kisses on each cheek and an Eskimo (we call them bunny kisses).
My other favorite thing is how polite she is. She always says please and thank you, Blesses you when you sneeze and lately has been saying "Thank you Mama". It is really cute.
She is silly and fun. We love Addy so much!
