The way to Addie's heart

is through mail. If you ever screw up with her, just send her a piece of mail via US snail mail and you'll be all better.

Addie got a card in the mail yesterday and this is what was said.
Me: Addie, you have some mail.
Addie: (taking the envelope) Oh my Goodness, a flag for me!
Me: (She was looking at the stamp, it's a flag.)
She opened the card up, and said: Oh my Goodness, cats!
(It was a Halloween card from Muddy and Guppy.)

Sorry I didn't get to update yesterday, it's been a very busy 2 days. OMG, just had a scary interruption- Addie walked into the family room and said, "What's Addie have?" She was holding up my Santoku knife!!! How did she get it? After sucking all the blood back into my heart, and talking to her about not touching knives, I walked into the kitchen to find Ben's piano walker pushed up against the cabinets. She climbed up on top and reached onto the counter. Needless to say, the piano walker was removed. Really, how close a call was that? Someone was watching. Amen.

Ben is so funny today. While he's crawling around on everything, he'll just randomly stop, and bury his face into whatever he's in front of. It's really hysterical. No rhyme or reason to what he dives into, just when he wants.

Also he's quite the giggler now. He and Brian spent a good 10 minutes when Brian got home from work playing "surprise" peek a boo around the corner. Ahhh good times.
