Tuesday, October 14


Wow. Addison is 10 months old. Our little baby is becoming such a little girl! I was at the mall yesterday and saw a few moms with new babies, then I’d look down at Addison, and she looked so big with her arms and legs overflowing from her stroller.
Addison has always loved bathtime, but her excitement lately has reached a new level. Wes will put her sitting in her tub facing the faucet and then let the water run into it, and she goes nuts! She’ll literally lunge forward onto her knees to get her hand into the waterfall. So she’s basically standing on her knees leaning on the tail of her duck tub so that the water can splash on her hands and face. We didn’t even know she could do that!

The other new thing she’s doing is getting up on her hands & knees and rocking back and forth. She’ll scoot backwards, and occasionally forward (it’s really more of a forward fall than a scoot), but no crawling yet. Guess she’ll have to keep rocking for now to get her momentum up.
One last note- THANK YOU! You guys are amazing. I sent an email out this morning about donating to Addison’s team for the Buddy Walk this weekend (see link to the right if you’re interested in seeing her fundraising page), and already we’ve raised $600! I’m blown away by your generosity. Thank you a thousand times over. Addison is blessed to have such a support network from such an early age.
