**WARNING CUTE BABY ALERT**

Rub a dub dub Addy's in the tub. She looooves the water. It's hilarious to watch her giggle and splash.




Surgery went well!


Addy did great on Friday. I thought she might be scared when they took her from my arms to take her back to surgery but she couldn't care less! She was having too much fun playing with the docs stethoscope. She was really groggy coming out of the anesthesia and then really grumpy all day Friday but by Sunday she seemed her normal happy screeching self! She's been working really hard at pulling herself up. She really wants to be a big girl!



PEEK A BOO!

Thank you for all the positive thoughts. Hopefully she will not have to deal with any more ear infections again.

Tomorrow Addy is getting tubes in her ears...

Tomorrow is the big day. I am glad that she will finally have some relief from the ear discomfort. The doc said that more than likely she has had continuous fluid since about 2 months. That has to be uncomfortable. You wouldn't know it by looking at her though, she is such a happy kid.

I'm nervous about her being put under but I know that it's for the best. I hope it makes a big difference for her.

The doc even said that she may become more mobile once she gets the tubes because her equilibrium has been off. Her hearing is also affected at this point. He doesn't think the hearing loss if permanent though. I hope it's not. Poor baby.

So please keep us in your thoughts tomorrow. I will update and let everyone know how she is doing.

Nine months!


Addy is nine months. I can't believe it. Time is flying way too fast for me. She still hasn't started crawling yet- but she is getting close. She likes to stand up and hold onto something for support. At her nine month checkup she weighed 19 pounds! She is 26 3/4 inches tall! It soo hard to believe that just nine months ago she was born. Everyday she is becoming more and more like a little girl. Yesterday- I came home from work late and she was playing in the living room and started scooching like crazy to come greet me by the door. :)



Here are some vintage Addy pics and movies. I've been reminiscing today.






This was a couple of days after she was born...she is soo tiny! All 6 pounds of her.



This is Addy at one month....










Three months...this dress is now a shirt!







One of my favorite pictures of Jim and Addy....










Of course I have to add a movie! This is Addy at 3 months when she was learning to coo.
