We have a few pictures for you this time. Addison bought Rach and me a nice camera for Christmas so that we would take lots of pictures of her, and we thought we would share. Grammy and Rach gave Addison a bath today, so we have a clean baby in the house again. Since my mom has been here, we have actually been getting a pretty good night's sleep. Grammy stays up with Addison and we just sleep. We are all going to miss Grammy once she leaves on Saturday.

A representative from the program we mentioned before, Sooner Start, came to the house today. It was an introduction meeting to give us an idea of how the program works and to give her an idea of what our needs are for Addison. It was an encouraging meeting and I think we are getting off to a good start, sooner rather than later, of course. Over the next few weeks, we have many doctors' appointments. We have appointments with the geneticist and the pediatrician on Monday, and we see the cardiologist on Friday. So, next week will be a big week for us.

We wish we could update you on fun things that Addison is doing, but the fact of the matter is that she eats, poops and sleeps, generally in that order. Every once in a while, we get a smile or two, and she will be wide awake at 11:30 pm or 5:30 am and any time in between. Other than that, she stays in a semi-comatose state. We think she's going through a growth spurt since she's getting taller every day. We put her up to the measuring stick in our house tonight to give you an idea of how tall she is now. We will give you updates on this as they come in. For now, enjoy the pics.
