11 months and counting!

Addison is literally getting into everything these days. Her favorite game is trying to get in the fridge before we can close the door.

She currently wants Mama to hold her every 5 minutes. She's really a Mama's girl. Dada is patiently waiting his turn.


Unlce Ben and Aunt Lolo were in town last week. She enjoyed getting to see them and wished they came to visit more. She's also requested they provide some cousins sooner than later.

Post Ear infection

We are so happy to see smiles on Wednesday since Saturday through Tuesday we had a fever and an ear infection. This was really the first time she has been sick so I guess that I should count my blessings but it was terrible. Talk about feeling helpless!!!! I hope to not feel like this again for along time. It is terrible for your little sweetie to be sick.

Proud daddy and happy Addy!

Almost 11 months

We are up and walking behind toys and holding on to mom and dad's hands. She is so busy. It is hard to snap a picture when she is always on the go. Addison is refusing to eat baby food and has to try everything you are eating. At lunch last week, she tried a fried pickle. The only thing that she has not liked was a regular dill pickle. She is eating everything in front of her just not a lot of it. We are still weighing around 17 pounds. Brandt and I are just loving being parents and can't wait for another one. We can't believe it is coming up on a year.

10 months

We are riding our bouncy horse.

She is getting so big. I feel like she changes on a daily basis. She is still as happy as she can be. Addison is just all smiles and laughs. She is standing next to everything not walking yet. I am not pushing this.

A wonderful lady at work named Terri made this by hand for Addison. She thinks it is wonderful. Addy gets this look on her face when she looks at it. She is always hugging it. I just love her and love being a mommy. She has just started saying ma ma ma.

Almost 10 months

We are just loving dinnertime!

I am so busy these days. Mommy is having a hard time keeping up with me.

We had a great time visiting with Papaw and Mimi. They came down and kept Addy on friday while Brandt and I worked. She kept them busy. We are moving from room to room in the blink of an eye. She is easily standing now and starting to let go every now and then.

The Flu

We are sorry for no posts this week but we have been shut down by the flu.

9 month check-up

We had our 9 month check up this morning. Dr. King said everything was great. We are right on target.
Our weight was 16 lb 11oz (30% percentile), height 28 inches (75% percentile) and head 45 inches (80% percentile). Dr. King said that we were proportioned just right. We can now start eating real food even eggs, yogurt, and soft cheese. Addison grabbed my pizza crust last night and started gumming it. She is crawling all over the place and trying to get in to everything.
