Addison's Acheivements

I wanted to take a moment to document all that Addison is doing now.

She cut her first teeth at 9 mo & all 4 front teeth are almost fully grown in.

She is saying Dada now & it's music to Sam's ears - I can see the joy on his face as he lights up with her smile & well timed 'Dada.'

She crawls so quickly! One second she's at my feet, the next, in the laundry room or hauling off to Bubba's room to explore. She is almost walking now too. She's down to needing only one hand to balance most of the time & is practicing running now. She has taken a step here & there but only for the eyes of others. Mom & Dad will be the last to see her first steps ;-)

Addi was sleeping through the night for me until she came down with a nasty case if bronchitis & double ear infection 2 weeks ago. Thankfully all better now, but still waking & with the cold weather I've been compelled to attend to her since she completely unwraps herself. I look forward to peaceful quiet nights but am just trying to enjoy all her baby qualities for now. I know that it won't be long before she is a toddler & has outgrown all the little baby phases.

She is a WONDERFUL eater. She is great at trying new things, eats veggies & uses the snack packs that should keep us on track to healthy snacking into her college, I mean pre-k, years (though I often consider sucking one down for the extra vitamins!).
