Toddler Fashionista and Summer Wrap-up

Addison is developing her own sense of...how do you say...style (?). Each morning, she helps pick out her clothes and for the most part it's pretty easy. When it's up to her, she will always pick the "pink" shorts and the "pink" shirt. No problems, right? A few days ago we went to Children's Place and there were some decent sales on, so I picked her up a couple fall outfits. A flowery dress, a stripy sweater, and a pair of pink leggings. When we got home, Addison insisted on wearing all together. Yes, she actually did! Her exact words were: "Clothes...WANT IT!" ah yes, a diva in the making. The result, ladies and gentlemen.....
And yes, she loved it! Kept saying "Glamriss!"

This summer, we have enjoyed being a family in our new house. We've discovered our community by biking all over the place. The bike seat took some getting used to for Addison, but now she loves it. Same goes for the helmet! We have played with dollhouses and furniture to the point that it's driving me crazy, but Addison loves finding new places to put her furniture (sometimes her "room" is on top of the trunk, other times, it's on the landing...still other times in the kitchen RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE FRIDGE!!)


Now that fall is here, we've got a few plans up our sleeve. First on the list is the upstairs bathroom. Below is a picture when we first moved in, as well as 2 "current" pictures:


So far, the only change we've made is changing the tub and taking out the sliding glass door. And yes, removing thousands of purple tiles. Sitting in our garage is our new vanity, which looks like the one below (which I got from the company's web site...THIS IS NOT ACTUALLY OUR BATHROOM!).
We are in the middle of picking out flooring, plus lighting, faucet, towel racks, mirrors, etc. Dan will enjoy doing some demolition of the closet in the bathroom and I will be sure to post more pics as we go along!

Next up is a visit from my parents, who are coming out from BC next week to spend a couple weeks with Addison...and us of course! We are looking forward to good times with them - lots of plans so far, including a trip to the outlet malls in New York...I mean the beautiful scenery of Niagara Falls, US!! Will keep you posted!
