Save The Date

Assuming all goes as planned, #2 is scheduled to arrive April 30th and my c-section is scheduled for noon. Addison's was at noon and she made her debut at 12:40, so I'd expect this one to be similar. Love my planned c-sections!

Extra Curricular Activities

Almost since Addison could walk we have been doing mommy and me gymnastics together, but now that she is 3 there is a whole new set of options for classes and she can go by herself. No more mommy and me which makes me kind of sad but also excited to have reached a new milestone. Since she already does gymnastics with her class at school 2 days a week we decided to give dance a try. Fortunately she can go to dance at the JCC on Thursday with all of her friends from school, unfortunately I am still at work and can't go watch. I was randomly off this past Thursday and got to take her to class - it was wonderful. Although she clearly was not listening to the teacher on multiple occasions and when all of the other kids were sitting up straight and pointing their toes, Addison was the kid sitting all slouched and just watching the other kids follow the teacher's instruction (she gets the slouching from her mother!) we can tell she really enjoys the class since her dancing at home as increased significantly.

I didn't get a picture on Thursday, but here is an older one from the fall when we started classes at the Bellaire Rec with Emily. 3 classes into it they canceled the class, but we got to keep the outfit!
And here is a pic of our little gymnast from early January -- she does this all by herself and I've repeatedly asked that she not do it on the hard floor, but she is fearless. Fortunately she has a hard head and it definitely wouldn't be the first time she hit it on this floor.

Park Time

Finally the weather has warmed up and we can go back to the park! We met Gail, Emily and Thomas at the park and had a wonderful morning, even had a picnic lunch. Hopefully this weather sticks around a while.

Addison and Emily had a great time playing together. Addison was even willing to share her chocolate teddy grahams with Emily!
Thomas is getting so big - before we know it he is going to be running around with the girls and beating up on them.

Happy Birthday Tyler!

Tyler Swann turned 3 this month and we went to his party on the 23rd. He got a fun new swing set for his birthday and the kids loved climbing around. The party had a super hero theme, so all the kids wore their favorite super hero costumes. Addison isn't really into super heroes, unless you consider the Disney princesses or Tinker Bell as super heroes. Addison opted to wear her Halloween fairy costume.

Super Tyler!
Again, where does the posing come from?!

Thanksgiving

We had a big Thanksgiving this year. We hosted dinner at our house again and really enjoyed having the Densons, Pflugers, Schroeders and Wolfs all under the same roof. We are very fortunate that it works having all the families come together. Not only do we avoid eating multiple Thanksgiving dinners, but it seems more like the holidays when the house is full of hustle and bustle and there is lots of family around.

We've all gotten kind of lazy when it comes to taking pics, so we don't really have pictures of everyone, so I'll just list names for the memory book and I'm going to try to be better in the future to get pictures!
There were 17 of us...me, Michael W, Addison, Dad, Mary, Helen, Dick, Granny, Jean, Tom, Betsy, Dave, Vicki, Fred, Dottie, Kristi, Michael S
