4 Month Check Up

Addison went in to see the Dr for her 4 month check up this past week. She is meeting all of her milestones and continues to grow!! She weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz (we thought she was 10 lbs but is just shy) and 21.5 inches long. It is crazy for me to look at how long she is because that is how long I was when I was born! (Go figure right?!). She still is not on the growth chart for her chronological age. If you subtract to get her gestational age (if she would have been carried to 40 week due date) she would be 2.5 months old which then puts her height and weight in the 25th percentile. The Dr is happy with her progress. She is getting stronger everyday!! She can hold her head up for longer periods of time and is awake for much more of the day. She also sleeps for longer stretches of time at night... up to 7 hours which Mommy and Daddy LOVE!!  She is SO alert and doesn't miss a thing!! She always want to sit up like a big girl so she can see.

Here is a pic of her Thanksgiving morning before church... SO cute!!! She is such a little person!!

Our most precious gift....

One of the cutest pics ever taken by Addison's Aunt Darlene!!

Our Beefy Baby!!

Miss Addison's unofficial weigh in.... 10 pounds!!! She is almost too long for her newborn clothes!! I realize she is 4 months old and still small for her chronological age... but she keeps growing and that is what counts!! Maybe someday she will even be on the pediatrician's growth chart ;). She is such a little person with so many expressions!! We love and cherish every second we spend with her.


Here is Addison checking out her snowglobe snowman that changes colors (and it has her name on it)

She is very alert... doesn't miss a thing!

Her big feet!!

Popped out her pipe to smile at Daddy :)

Blue Eyed Babe!!

Addison went in to see the eye Dr again today and did fantastic!! This was her second NORMAL eye exam which means we don't have to go back until she is 1 yr old!! She is very alert, tracks well, and is always looking around. She is so curious!! She loves to lay on the floor with her favorite monkey hanging above her and just whack him around and watch him swing. She has her own little giggle and is full of smiles. We are constantly feeding her and she is growing like crazy!! We cannot believe how big our little peanut is getting!!

 I love this sleeper b/c under the zebra it says "Wild About Mommy"!! :)

 Addison loved laying in the laundry fresh out of the dryer!!
