Addison updates

In case you don't have facebook or don't speak with us frequently, let me give you the low-down on Addison's new imaginary friend, Bubba.

Bubba is tiny - "he" fits in her hand, her purse, or a cup and goes with us on most family outings. "He" is also a girl, but she continues to use the pronoun "he". I presume this is due to the majority of her stuffed animals having masculine names, and thus are called "he" all the time. We're working on "She" but haven't made much progress yet. Bubba sits with us at dinner in an invisible booster seat and shares Addison's food. Bubba even took a bath with Addy the last week. Let me tell you how difficult it is to bathe an invisible friend to a 2 year-old's exacting standards! "NO, Mommy! Bubba's over THERE!". Lately, Addison has even given other people their very own Bubba. Last night at a family cookout, Addison gave her Great Aunt Shelley and Great Uncle Dave their very own Bubbas. When Addy delivers a Bubba to you, the fear that the Bubba was flattened always crosses your mind. Not so gentle. It's been an interesting development. I am tickled that her imagination is blossoming so rapidly. She's also started making up songs about things happening in her day. That can be quite entertaining. I hope to get video of her singing sessions soon to share with you all.

Tomorrow is South Wood's community-wide yard sale again. Awesome! We planned to hit up some yard sales, and luckily picked the weekend that the biggest and best yard sale opportunity in Tallahassee is happening. We must have ESP or something.
