This is one of the reasons my daddy is the best...

He let's me do stuff like this!

And, She Sleeps!

To this day I just love watching Addi (and her siblings) sleep.

"Flower"



I asked Addi to paint me a beautiful flower today while she was at school!

So BEAUTIFUL!

"The Row"

I'm going to frame this one!!!

"Limpalose and Transara"


Addi is now in preschool and loving it!! This past week she learned about Dinosaurs all week. This is a piece of art she brought home from school on Friday.
She told me she named the first dinosaur "Limpalose" because it has a long nose. Addi's art always makes me so happy!!

"Manrose" Set


Addi explained to me that "Manrose" means a lot of flowers.

I found these today while organizing. These are some of the first pictures Addi water-colored when her Grandma K. first introduced her to water-coloring. To this day Addi still loves to paint!!

Sleeve Fix


Addi cut Tinker Bell's sleeve with scissors. I got upset that she cut Tinker Bell's sleeves. Addi then fixed Tinker Bell's sleeve by taking a piece of paper, coloring it green, and then taping it over the cut sleeve.
It was hard to be upset after her hard work to fix it! Such a clever girl!!

"Show Flower"



Addi loved the flower on this commercial so much that she had to take a pic of it!

Addi, your pictures are beautiful!!

Pics by Addi...




The things our Addi takes pictures of????

"Curtain for a Show"

Addi broke out Jenga and used the pieces to make this and then wanted to take a picture of it. I thought it was cool, especially since she came up with the pattern by herself and so quickly too. She just started lining the blocks up and searching out the colors she needed to continue the pattern.

"Talking about our Family"

This is a picture Addi drew of Braydon and her. She tried to write their names above their heads. She knows what their names start with but gets a little confused after that.

"Chocolate Pineapple"


I like the picture almost as much as I like the title Addi picked for it.

"The Winner Flower"


I like how this flower has a smile!

Happy Homes



"I Don't Like That One!"

When I asked Addi what this one is called she informed me that this picture is ruined, and said "I don't like that one." Well, I like it!

Addi's Train

Addi's brother has a ton of his own trains, so when she got this train for herself during our trip to the Train Museum she felt pretty cool. Braydon kept trying to take it from her, but she kept telling him he already has is own trains!!

Addi always takes pictures of things she loves!

Crowns


Addisyn decided to make each of us a crown. She also wanted us to do a parade as a family in our crowns, and made a special flag for the parade. Here is me and Addisyn in our crowns! I love mine!!

"I Love the Beautiful Flowers"



What I loved most about this picture was how Addi made the flowers with hearts in the middle. I was very pleased when she told me that the name of this piece of art is, "I Love the Beautiful Flowers, because I agree! The flowers are beautiful!
Beautiful just like our Addi!!

"Beauty and the Beast"

Belle is Addi's favorite princess so she drew Belle and the Beast. She often says Daddy or Braydon is the beast. Daddy would qualify on looks (he can get kind of hairy). Braydon qualifies because he likes to roar and scare Addi.

"Daddy is the best because he saves me from giants"


This is a story Addi drew of Daddy saving her from giants.

Disney Princesses



Addi discovered scissors last year after she received an art kit from her Grandma K. for Christmas that included scissors. She finds pictures of things she likes and then cuts them out and pastes them on paper.

She made this tonight!

Right now she is saying that Belle is her favorite Disney Princess. That is probably why she is in the middle.

"Toe Nails"


"Watching Monk"

Addi named this "Watching Monk", because that is exactly what her daddy was doing when she took this picture. Look how cozy Lex looks!!

"Chef" and "Area"

"Chef" "Area"



"Chef" is actually four different sized squares glued together largest to smallest. Once she glued it together she added the colors. "Area" is a painting. I love how the lines vary in thickness and how the spots are placed in between the lines.
