October Favorites

I can't believe that it is almost the end of October. Where does the time go? It seems to me that once you add working to your life things really pick up. But it has been a blast. We have loved the cooler weather although sometimes I have wondered if it was going to go from summer to winter. Addison still loves to be outside and would rather go out without a coat, hat or mittens. I have tried to engrave in her head that she can not go out unless she has a hat on and she is finally understanding. One of Addison's new favorites is baking with grandma. She pulls of a chair and even has her own baking tins. Her favorite is to bake rolls. Here are some great pictures.

She loves the rolling pin! Making her own bread She got more flour on her face than on her hands!

Addison also experienced making her first pumpkin donuts. This is a tradition that we do every year and this year she got to help. Although her favorite part was eating them. They are a favorite for many and hopefully we will get to make them one more time. Mommy let me lick that frosting!

We have an exciting week this week. On Wednesday we get to find out whether we are having a boy or a girl. When you ask Addison she just says a baby so she does understand. We are just hoping for a healthy baby and we can't wait to be able to see such a miracle! We will be sure to post when we find out. I will also post some other fall pictures once I down load them. Here is one last picture of Addison. I can't believe how big she is getting! I still think she is looking more and more like Scott everyday!

Well it's about time you posted something!!! So glad you did! Thanks for the update - we can't wait to hear whether baby Pell is a boy or a girl! And yes, we would have to agree that Addison is looking a lot like her dad these days! (Don't worry, Scott - that's a good thing!)
