Meet Zaddison

My sister Nicole and her husband Jon flew in from Texas in June for a visit. It was so fun having them stay with us and introducing them to their first niece.



They were quickly smitten by her adorable baby ways :)




Nicole is a really talented writer. Growing up she wrote a lot of short stories and poems. She's a great good artist too. Jon is a comic book author and artist (check out his stuff here). After they got back to Texas Nicole decided she wanted to write a children's story book and base the character on Addison (and the adventures she will have someday). So far it's really cute!!


Zaddison is a monster. Here she is with her mom getting ready in the morning...
(I love that the toilet is wearing a monocle - so creative :)
Zaddison's first adventure is about the monsters she finds under her stair case.



These are some of the sketches of what the monsters might look like. I love the one on the bottom right with Zaddison leading the monster away :)




It's amazing the get a peek inside Nicole's imagination. I know Addison will love
having her Aunt Nicole read her these stories someday!
