Since Drew and the boys are gone, Addie and I have been left to entertain ourselves. Friday we slept in and I decided to take a day off from the gym. We went out to the back yard to play with the dogs for a while. I sat in the sun and read a book and watched her play. I just love to sit and watch her and listen to what she is saying. She talks so much, but often gets upstaged by the boys when they are around. She usually plays whatever they are playing and rarely plays by herself. It was fun to see her personality shine and listen to her sweet voice. (When the boys are around her sweet voice is absent and is replaced by a shrill scream!)
Addie loves to "go to work." She got her purse and sunglasses and got in her car to go to work today. She kept saying, "Bye, Mommy. I go to work. Have a nice day. Be good. I see you later!" She, like most two year olds, said it over and over and over again. It was so cute and she was very serious about going to work! She played in the sand box for a while.

It doesn't get much better than this!
Pily, my little sister, called yesterday and asked if she could come up. Uh, yeah. We were so excited to have another girl to hang out with! I really think Addison has enjoyed all the attention she has received since the boys have been gone. After Pily got here we went to Target to get some food. I was just going to eat what we had while the boys and Drew were gone, but with company I couldn't do that.
After her toes were dry we went and got some ice cream~ double dip, if you want to know! When we got back Addison took a bath and we called Drew to say goodnight. It sounded like he was outside so I asked him if he was on the four-wheeler. "No," he said, "We are in Paris." They were on their way home to surprise us! He decided to come home a little early because he missed me so much. (His words, not mine!) It is so great to have a husband that loves me so much he can't stand to be away from me.
So, as you can see, we have had a good couple of days. Addison and I have gotten to spend some time together and Pily was able to come up and see us. I know the boys are excited to see her, too. Hopefully she will stay a few more days so they can play with her, also!

The picture of Addie reading to Belle is an award-winner! That's the cutest thing I've seen in a long, long time. I'm glad you girls had a good visit. You are very blessed with Drew. I admire your relationship so much and hope to find the same happiness someday!!!
Enjoy the rest of your summer!
