miss addimae / / easter

my sweet little addison is 3 years old! i can hardly believe it and it makes me a little sad to see her grow up and become such a big girl! she is so smart and absolutely adorable. addi has one of the biggest personalities and she is always making everyone laugh. she can throw a champion tantrum, but melts your heart with how sweet she can be at the same time. when i met addi, she was just 7 months old. i loved to babysit her and rock her to sleep. she was such a darling baby, and so, so quickly got up on those feet and was a toddler before we knew it! until they moved to vernal and we moved to herriman, seeing addi and her brother and sister was a very regular thing. we were always with them and always doing things with family, and being around them that often, you kind of forget that time is passing and they're growing up. now all of a sudden, she's three, makayla is TEN (whaaaa????) and kadenator is 6! i love and adore that little girl more than words can say and am so excited to watch her grow up. having nieces and nephews has been some of the most fun i've ever had in my life. those 4 little kiddos are so, so important to me and i'm so glad i get to be their aunt. now, miss Addison, grow up a little slower from now on, okay? i love you, baby girl!

since addi's birthday was on easter weekend, we did a lot of celebrating! we couldn't make it to her birthday party on saturday (we were in ogden with my siblings), but we had a big easter sunday party and it was so much fun! holidays are so much better with little kids around :)

a list of things going on in our lives that have yet to find a blog post to call home...

> > that wonderful husband of mine got himself a fancy big promotion that's just as extremely exciting as it is overwhelming. it's called "youth program director" and encompasses the directing of all youth programs at both the sandy momentum location and the canyon rim location that will be opening later this year.

> > oh yeah, we're building another gym! did i mention this? isn't it exciting? it will be up in salt lake near cottonwood heights area. it's called Momentum Canyon Rim and it's going to be amazing. I can't wait for all the excruciatingly long hours Devin will put in helping get this gym opened (not)!

> > we decided to renew our lease and stay in herriman for another year. we love it up here and we don't see anything changing for awhile!

> > we've been spending almost all of our spare time at home watching duck dynasty. literally.

> > gym, gym, gym

> > i've had a twitch in my right eye since tuesday

> > devin got stung by a wasp

> > everybody had a birthday this week (addison, sean, brandon... okay not everyone. but that's still a lot.)

> > we had a big huge awesome easter weekend and i'm sore and tired and sick from it!

> > i feel like there was a lot more, but i can't think of anything else right now. i'm so exhausted! i'll get back to you later...
