Addison's Easter egg!! (at the North Loop kids playground)

We have had a busy couple weeks with Easter and then Nana and Papa in town!

Addison really enjoyed egg hunting this year! Daddy and Addie attended the North Loop kids egg hunt on Saturday the 7th (even in the bitter cold) this year. Addison got an egg filled with candy! We also did a little egg hunting here in the house with eggs filled with Addison's favorite fruit snacks. She really enjoyed finding the eggs, gathering them in her bucket, and then dumping them all out again and again! She got some new Spring/summer clothes and books from Opa and Jojo, a new outfit and bathing suit from Nana and Papa, and some summer clothes and new craft supplies from mommy and daddy! On Easter Sunday, we had plans to attend a brunch at Dakota Jazz Club...but unfortunately daddy was on call, which forced us to cancel these plans. It was ok though...we made up for it with a nice relaxing lunch at the Lowry (one of our favorite places)! Addison wore her beautiful Easter dress from Nanny (see pics below!)

Last week we drove to Chaska, MN one day to visit one of mommy's friend's newborn babies! Addison loved seeing the baby, and was very gentle and kind! It was cute to see her interact! She even got a little jealous when mommy held the baby and wanted "up, up" on the couch next to mommy immediately!

Nana and Papa arrived on the 12th and stayed until the 17th.....we had a relaxing few days playing with them! They got to visit Minneapolis Institute of Art and Addison's music class at McPhail! They enjoyed some time on Friday getting Addison all to themselves when mommy and daddy were at work...and absolutely loved bonding with her! We had some fun dinners and breakfasts out! We appreciated all of their help as well....cooking delicious food and keeping the house tidy! Such a wonderful visit.

Addison is talking, singing and running constantly lately! The potty continues to be of much entertainment to Addison, as we sit on the potty (only when she asks), but at least a couple times/day. Addison has taken a new interest in learning to get dressed and undressed independently! Yesterday, she took her shirt and pants off at least three times during the day.....cute and funny......lets just hope she doesn't try this at daycare! :-) haha!

Daddy leaves for San Diego today for a conference, so mommy, Addie and Wally will be hanging out together the next four days! We will miss Daddy!
