Our Growing Family: Addison at 2 months...

Addison, you are two months old today. I can hardly believe it! You've grown so much and are learning new things every day. You make our lives so enjoyable. I look at you and can't help but smile. Addison Brooke, you have filled a hole in your mommy's heart I never knew was missing. Words can not describe how much I love you! You are mine and your daddy's world! I can't even remember what life was like without you!
We went for your two month well-baby check up yesterday and you have grown more than ever!
Your daddy and I made bets on how much you were going to weigh...he won :)

At two months old you now weigh 10 lbs. and 2 oz.
You are 22 1/2 inches long
You are in the 50 percentile range for height and weight
Dr. Tyler refers to you as a lazy eater. You rarely finish a 4 oz. bottle. I prefer to call you a snacker. You like to eat about 1-2 oz. and then nap. You get hungry again in about 1 hour and finish the rest of your bottle. You don't get in a hurry about much, you're pretty layed back like your daddy thank goodness! I am anything but layed back... I am glad you take after him! We started feeding you one formula bottle a day last week. You are up to two bottles this week! You HATED Enfamil, but didnt skip a beat when given Similac, so that is now our formula of choice. Hopefully by the time I return to work, you will be a full-time formula fed baby. :)

Addison, you had your first shots yesterday, I don't know who was more upset, you or me. Holding my crying baby as someone sticks her with needles is not my idea of a fun day. You were such a big girl though. As soon as the shots were finished, I scooped you up and held you and you stopped crying. You are such a little trooper!

Our days usually consist of feeding baby, changing baby, playing with baby, and watching baby sleep. We have a great time together, but you do tend to get tired of seeing only your mommy for about 8 hours straight. You are thrilled to pieces to see your daddy walk through the door. You can cut it on and off within a second. One second you can be throwing a fit, and the next your daddy walks in and you smile the biggest smile ever. It does my heart good to see the love that you two share :) We are so lucky that God has lent you to us! We love you soooo much and are thankful to have such a sweet and beautiful baby girl!

Here are a few pics. from the past couple of weeks.

This was Addison's first day in the church nursery! Her BFF MaKenna was there and helped her feel more comfortable in a new setting. Thanks Anna for taking this!
