Philippians 2:2  complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.

18 Months Old!

I was reading a friends post about how fast her baby was growing and how she wants to remember every little moment... I could not agree more with that statement. My days are filled with laughter, giggles, dancing, snuggling, funny faces and God's grace.

I want to remember these days, good and bad, because they are such a gift. God has blessed us with a healthy, sweet, and beautiful little girl. I wake up to a smiling face, walking into her room as she says," Hi Mom" to playing, lunch, snuggling up for naps, reading books, rocking her to sleep and praying with her... and the best part is I get to do it again the next day! 

I feel so blessed to be Addison's momma and even though it was unexpected God knew how to get a hold of my heart. 

Some of my favorite things I want to remember about Addison:

-You say "oh no" and "Uh-o" to everything

-She loves our dog Marlee and recently learned to say her name

-Our favorite show is Mickey Mouse Club House. When it is over she says "Oh No" and "bease" ( please) for another one

-She loves to be outside and would stay out all day if we would let her

-she has the cutest little grin when she knows she doing something wrong

-When I count 1..2..3.. for her to do something, she counts with me... You cant help but laugh!
-She loves to dance to music it is so cute! She shakes her hips and her head. Can not wait until she can take dance
-She loves to hold as many paci's in her hand as possible
-She is looking like a full fledged toddler... my sweet baby is getting so big
-she loves to read books... Chicka Chicka Boom Boom is our favorite right now
- LOVES her daddy and gets so excited when he gets home
-doing so much better in the car
- gets so excited when we pull up to Gigi and Pops house. When she walks in she yells Hi to everyone!
-loves my brothers new dog, Deke and tells him to sit and no no
-You are just so sweet and at such a fun age!

Things about Addison that are a little hard/challenging:

-She is not a very good eater. You are very picky! You like something one day and the next you wont touch it
- still working on sharing. I understand this will take a while because at home she has everything to herself.
-learning how to discipline you and whats the best method
-You throw everything
- You are very strong willed.

Even through all the challenging moments you such a blessing and I enjoy every minute of it!

I love you love bug!

Love,
Mommy

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6

Wordless Wednesday!

Well... Almost wordless...

I don't ever want to forget these fun moments!

Addison LOVES stickers... Can you tell?

Hope everyone has a great week!

The Penzo's

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
(Psalm 27:14)

BIG day!

Monday was a HUGE day in the Penzo house!

A few weeks ago my Grandma bought Addison a Potty chair for Christmas.

She was deathly afraid if it at 1st but lately she has loved sitting on it.

Monday we were hanging out around the house waiting to head over to Gigi and Pops to celebrate my Dad's birthday and Addison started making that face... Moms you know what I'm talking about. ha

I asked her if she wanted to go use the potty and surprisingly she told me yes!

After siting for a few minutes we had successes!

 I was so proud of her and Addison was so excited!

Our little girl is growing up... but I am excited for the no diaper stage. :)

 When we got over to Gigi and Pops house that night Gigi had a present waiting for Addi!

And to top it off she used the potty over at their house too!

We are so proud of you Addison!
This potty training journey has only begun but my goal is to have her potty trained by her 2nd birthday! 

WISH me LUCK and pray for patience!

Have a great Thursday!

Love,

Meredith
