UH OH, ADDY'S A TEEEEENAGER!

On August 18, 1996, Addison Taylor was born. She was a sweet baby and had the chubbiest kissable cheeks that you have ever seen. Today, she turns 13 years old and is a teenager.


She is so easy going and all her grandparents love her to bits.

When Addy was almost 4 1/2, she became a big sister. Sophia Marie was born in January. Addy was very excited to have a baby sister.






In March of 2009, Addy got braces. So far it's going pretty good.
Addy loves to drive anything with 4 wheels. She's been driving our car on our laps since she was about 7. She drove on our cul de sac and in the field. At about 10 her legs got too long to sit on our laps, so she started driving with us in the passenger seat. Little did we know she'd get the "driving bug".


She likes gymnastics. Nice handstand Addy!!
She loves shopping.

She enjoys her friends-talking, texting, phoning, sleepovers, shopping and all those fun things girls love to do with their friends.


In 2007, Kelly married Chris and Addy and Sophia gained a great stepdad. Hard to tell by this picture, but he's a good guy.And in 2008 Addy and Sophia became big sisters.
She's a fantastic big sister and if Dylan could talk, he would tell you so.



Kelly, is Addy getting taller than you??
Addy, we love you soooo much and we are proud of you. You are a wonderful first granddaughter and we have enjoyed seeing you grow into a beautiful teenager.
Love, grandpa Jim and grandma Kathy

Great post Mom. I can't believe I have a teenager. And yes, I think she is getting tall than me. I think all my kids will probably pass me up! Love you.
