Addie is 20 months old! You all know what THAT means…only 4 months to plan a fabulous 2nd Birthday Party! Ha. She is a wild child. She never stops running. She talks all the time (whether you can understand her or not!). She LOVES her Dada. And YaYa. She still loves to read, but rarely sits down long enough to finish a book. She has become an expert cook in her kitchen, and insists you taste EVERYTHING. She loves being outside. Even in the cold. She would eat tomatoes for EVERY single meal if we let her. She prefers Italian food over any other cuisine. She eats most things we put in front of her, but runs everything off and never seems to gain weight. She still calls Elias “Addie” no matter how many times we explain that his name is not Addie. (He always says “hi Addie” to her, so she does the same when she sees him.) She talks to GiGi all the time, while carrying around her picture. She LOVES to skype with GiGi and Granddaddy, but completely falls apart when I close the computer. So we don’t do it as often as we should. (She can’t figure out WHERE they went! Ha) She loves having her friends over to play, even though it’s sometimes hard to share toys. She prefers to be out and about, rather than being cooped up at home. She would stay up until 2 am if we would let her, and luckily she has started sleeping until around 9 am. She has her DaDa wrapped around her tiny little finger. She loves to pose for the camera. She loves all things girly. She always has beads around her neck. She loves her “babies” (which as of now include 2 of her Wonder Pets stuffed animals, an Elmo doll, a Backyardigan Doll, and a Baby Doll), and insists on feeding them all bottles, then pushing them all around in a stroller. She HAS to have her blankie within her sight. She loves to help us cook. She is VERY stubborn. She loves to make us laugh all day, every day. And we couldn’t adore her more. Happy 20 Months, Addie Cakes!
