Addison 7 Months Old



I can't believe this little girl is 7 months. Addie has such a sweet demeanor.  I know I said this last time but her smile melts my heart.  Addie is loving food.  She is starting to pick up little puffs and put them in her mouth.  She likes to drink from a sippy cup but tends to chew on it instead of suck.  Addie is such a big girl now sitting up on her own.  She seems to like this new view of the world.  I think the dog likes it more because know they are on the same level and he likes to lick her face!! Addie is not so sure about the licking part but she keeps her eye on the dog for sure.  Addie is our social butterfly and loves to hear the sound of her voice.  My favorite time is riding in the car with her and Jace and listening to her talk to him.  She practically leans up in her car seat just so she can get a good look at him while she is talking.  Addie loves Jace and likes when he blows on her belly.  Jace can be found with her in her crib blowing on her tummy.  Addie likes her crib and finds it funny when we hide and play peak a boo with her.  Addie loves music and likes when we sing to her.  I think her favorite is when Jace sings "You are my sunshine" It is so cute!! Addie has no teeth but is chewing on everything.  There is yet to be any rolling over and tummy time is not her favorite.  She really is content laying back and watching the world around her.  Her neck is getting stronger and I have noticed at times she holds it nice and straight so progress makes me happy.  All is well with this little girl.  Love love love this kid.

I love having the title of mother




I am so honored  and blessed to call myself a mother.  Just taking a moment to reflect on all the blessings that have come from these 2 sweet angles.....

Addison is 6 Months old

My sweet little Addie turned six months old and my how fast time goes.  I feel like she should only be 2 months old and my brain can't wrap around the fact that she is eating real food.  Addison has a little Torticollis as you can see in this picture.  Torticollis is tight muscles of the neck.  The doctor said it was because she was in a small space and stayed in the same position for my entire pregnancy.  We are going to have her evaluated by a stride but the doctor stated it was not a big deal and with a little therapy those muscles will relax.  Addison is saying "ma ma" and has the biggest sweetest smile ever.  One look at her smile and my whole world is just bliss.  The Lord definitely knew I needed a sweet angel.  I must say both Addie and Jace make my life blissful.  Addison will roll to her side and roll from her tummy to her back but if she is on her tummy she tends to scream and yell. Addie also sits with some support and likes the view she gets while sitting.  Addison tends to cry when I leave her.  She is also a snuggler and oh my how I love her nuzzles.  When Addie is excited she lets out a light scream and if you are holding her she jumps up and down.  As of yet she has no teeth but she is drooling like none other.  Food is fun for this little girl.  She is more interested in the food I am eating then the food that comes in the jars. Addie likes avocado, banana , noodles, tortilla, and cucumber just to list a few of her favorites.  I love this little girl she is such a joy.
