Conversation my Mom had with my friends Zoe and Tara

Mommy came to pick us up at school today. She decided to wear her hair curly today, instead of straight, because grandmom told her it would look nice. It didn't look as nice as mommy had hoped.

Zoe took one look at my mommy and said,"what happened to your hair?"
Mommy told her, "I had a problem with the blow-dryer".

Then my friend Tara looked at mommy and said, "what did you do to your hair?"
Zoe explained, "she used the wrong blow-dryer"
Tara replied, "was it the dog's?"

My friends made my mommy feel extra-special today!

The thing about names.

I had this teacher once named Mrs. Rosen-Bomb. What kind of name is that? Why would I want a teacher whose name was about an explosion?

A Poem by Addison

The People in my Family

Sydney is the greatest 11 year old I have known
She likes macaroni and cheese, the computer and her phone

My sister Hayley is nice as well
Sometimes she's mean but I won't tell

My mommy Lori is the best mom ever
She likes to hug me isn't that clever

My daddy Gregg is a great guy
I love him more than bunnies, and that's no lie

Roxy is my favorite dog
Woof Woof Woof

Freddie is my Freddie Dog
Woof Woof Woof

Pigs and Purim

We were happy to attend Purim services on Saturday evening. Our Synagogue did a great re-telling of the Purim story, and we were very excited to shake our groggers when they mentioned Hamen (booo).

Here is a conversation Addie and Mommy had while trying to leave the house for services.

Addison: Can I bring my piggy? (he is a new favorite stuffed animal)
Mommy: (frustated, and trying to get out the door) No, you can't bring a pig to synagogue, he's not kosher.
Addison: Yeah, but he's not dead yet.

It's My Birthday!

I turn 6 today, but I told my mommy its kind of like being five. But I'm excited to have my birthday. We are having cupcakes at school, and I got a big button that says happy birthday. My sisters gave me fur real friends. A pig named Wilbur and a sheep named Tessie. I already have a little chimp. I named that one Hilda.

I hope I go to Chuck E. Cheese today!

Chinese baby, Santa and Chuck E. Cheese Tokens

I put a token in my stocking. Santa did it. I felt really proud of myself. Because I was a good girl.

I slept so much Lia came out of Aunt Wendi's belly :). That was totally wierd. I was so happy. It was a Chinese baby that came out of her real mommy's belly in China. China is far far away. And people don't talk like in our language. She should take her to a Chinese restaurant so she can know what Chinese things are like. If you have a Chinese baby that you adopted, you must care and love your baby, just like if it came out of your belly. It's hard to believe that so many people had girls instead of boys. Sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're sad. Whether or not you don't have to have one or you can!

The moms get kind of sad, they cry, because they miss their babies. They never see them grown up they only see them when they come out of the moms belly. That's the only day. You must not let your baby have candy. They will choke and get very sick. It's hard to be a mother, when you have a baby.

The end.

My Future Husband

I went to Chuck E. Cheeses. I liked the thing where you go up and up, you know the the high thing, and when you pedal it goes higher. I went with Mommy and Megan. The best part was eating together, and when we told Chuckie, "You're hot I want to marry you".

Lunch with Maddie

Mommy: Did you have a good time at Maddie's house?
Addie: Yes
Mommy: Did you eat all your lunch?
Addie: Yes
Mommy: What did you eat?
Addie: They made me eat a Gross Sandwich.
Mommy: What's a Gross Sandwich?
Addie: It's the kind of sandwich made with cheese and pig.

Happy New Year

We saw Wicked on New Years Eve and I really loved it. Especially the part when the witch was a green baby.

Here is my Auntie being funny.

Question posed to Addison's Aunt Wendi and Addison's Daddy

1. Raise your hand if you are adopting a baby from China.

2. Raise your hand if you never had a baby in your belly. And you are a woman.

Some Ramblings about Pinatas, Names and Farts (translated by Mommy)

Today I brok a pinata with Abigail. With gross candy. well, the candy cane was good but the rest was gross. So I shared the candy cane with Abigail. It was the sweet kind.

We played one game. Who is the teacher. It's where someone doesn't know who is the teacher so they whisper to someone else who is the teacher. So they whisper who it is, but it's a secret.


The Petrillos came over with their daughter Victoria, not Victoria Lopez, cause that would be wierd. Wouldn't it be funny if we had two last names?

If you'r near someone and you have to fart do a quiet one. You pretend you're not going to by not trying to, and then it will be quiet and no one will hear it or smell it. because it's like a little fart.

Nothing but the Tooth

The First Time I Met Lia

The first time I met Lia Rose she cried hard. She was cuter than a baby that was one years old. Shake your head Lia. She pee'd in her pants and her mommy changed her diaper.
And then, her mom gave her a big present. It was a big fluffy teddy bear.
And she smiled so much that she hugged her mommy.
