Trick or Treating!

Addison had a wonderful time tonight with Sophie! They are the cutest little friends ever! They were holding hands, playing follow the leader and having their own little conversations! We went to a few houses in our neighborhood and then went to Casie's parents house. Her Dad is a photographer and takes pictures of all the trick or treaters! It is so awesome! Then he sends out the picture to the kids that are in it! How nice is that! ONLY in the midwest!

Addison and Sophie had the whole trick or treating thing down! They were so cute holding hands and saying 'trick or treat'. They were so good about saying thank you too!

Picking up the trees!

So it was finally a nice day so we went out to rake leaves...but right before we went out Addison said, "we are going to pick up the trees!" I just thought it was funny! She had a fun time outside at least for a little while before we attempted a nap!

Just Because!

I know everyone is going to fall over with all the posts today! I am catching up! Here are some pictures that I just had to post...they were just TOO cute!!!


Nonna Nancy and Nonno Chris...your present was a HUGE hit!!




"Hello Onie....where Maggie go?"

Halloween Fun at the Library (briberry)

Today we went to the Library with Sophie! I am not sure if Addison was more excited about the library or seeing Sophie. I am thinking seeing Sophie the bunny as it has now changed to at our house.



This library is great! We listened so a couple of stories, did some halloween crafts, went to City Hall and sang a song to the Mayor and had oodles of treats! Popcorn balls are MESSY!!






I think Addi-Cat had a great time! We hope you enjoy the pictures!!

Happy Halloween (a little early!!)

Love the Nesbitts

Happy Birthday Addi (again)

We had a great weekend celebrating Addison's Birthday in Willmar! It was so great that so many of our friends and family could be there with us! Thank you to everyone that came. It not only meant a lot to Addison but also to Bill and I. Addison had a great time! And loved blowing out the candles again! I think, other than ice cream, that was the birthday highlight!

Enjoy the pictures!!

One Tough Cookie!!

So last thursday ( I know I am a bit behind...the story of my life!!) Addison and I went to have our flu shots. Well come to find out Addi needed a bunch more shots cause she just turned two! She had three shots and the flu mist and didn't make a peep. The most was a funny face! I was one proud mommy! It made it ALOT easier for me too without tears!! We are good til she is 4 HIPPY RAY!!

PARIS!!

Steph and I had a great trip to Paris. The flights were never-ending but it was worth it. Paris is such a wonderful city. We covered a lot in a week! For me the highlights were....seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle, the Orsay (Monet and a Carpeaux statue), Versailles was amazing, and just the city itself. Everywhere you look there is an neat old building or a stunning cathedral. We certainly did eat some good food I can't believe what they can do with flour and water! The bread is amazing!! I really enjoyed GOOD coffee. It was fun to be able to drink the wine this time too!! Last time I was pregnant! I even got Steph to try wine, and mussels too!

I am quite certain that we covered every metro stop in Paris! But we did well. We got around very easily and had no problems. We of course have some stories! Stephanie causes incidents (i can write that cause there is nothing she can do about it!!) We had the unattended baggage freak out a couple times, a broken rail on the train, some security incident at the Louvre, some guy trying to give us a gold ring and various other strange incidents! I of course blamed Steph! Overall it was a wonderful trip and I had a great time with my little sis!

I got to redeem myself with the photos a bit. The last time we were in Paris our digital camera broke and we forgot how to use the film camera. So I hope you enjoy the pictures!

7 years!!

I can't believe I have been married to the the LOVE OF MY LIFE for SEVEN years today! We were talking about this week...it is a pretty important one...we met, got engaged, got married and had a baby....all in the same week over the course of 9 years!


Happy Anniversary Baby! I LOVE YOU!!!

GO VIKINGS!!!!

In honor of the big game Addison decided to wear her cheerleading outfit! She had fun cheering for the pictures, "Go Bikings"

These pictures are ESPECIALLY for those Packer lovers....Uncle Ron and James and Nicole!!!!

FANCY NANCY!!

I just couldn't resist this picture! Addison LOVES her Fancy Nancy shoes (Thanks Celia!!) She clunks around the house in them all the time. So this morning after we visited a preschool she had to come home and put on her Fancy Nancy shoes.

So the preschool visit was good. It was the Montessori School in Millard. It was a different way of learning than I was used to seeing but seemed to work well. The kids were really expected to do a lot for themselves! But they seemed to be advanced as well. It is a big decision. I didn't really realize that until now. Does preschool have a huge impact on the rest of their academic career? I don't know? Any insight anyone????

Nana's Corn!!

Addison LOVES Nana's corn. And it is amazing the she knows the difference! So we finished dinner and Bill and I were cleaning up and this is what we turned around to....Addison eating the left-over corn out of the bowl! She is a MN girl to her core!

Busy Saturday!

Today we had an exciting day planned. This morning we did the Buddy walk with our neighbors Casie, Vernon, Sophie and Vollen! We had a great big team and looked great in our matching green t-shirts! It was a chilly morning but it was lots of fun!





Then this evening we had our neighborhood block party. It again was a bit on the chilly side but was fun. We got to meet some new people in the neighborhood so that is always nice.

Birthday Pictures!!

I think Addison had a great birthday! She got to have her best friend Sophie over! They had fun eating mac n cheese, playing downstairs and of course having princess cupcakes! Then when Daddy came home we all ate pizza downstairs and watched Meerkats (another Addison favorite)! Then it was more cake and ICE CREAM (the only thing she ever wanted for her birthday!)

I asked her why she was going to have ice cream (expecting "it's my birthday") and got....

"Because I'm a lucky girl" She is a very thankful little girl and remembered to say thank you to everyone that called for her birthday! Thanks everyone for thinking of our little Addi today!

We hope you enjoy the pictures!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDISON!!!

I can not believe that Addison is 2! She has changed SO much. To think at her first birthday she was scooting around on the floor playing with a balloon at the community center in Naples....now she is running all over and talking like crazy! I just thought I would put a couple of old pictures up! The birthday pictures will come a little later...since she woke up at 7am she is trying to take a nap before her friend gets here!
