Man time is flying by and I can't believe we are at the end of October already! From where we left off, our schedule has not slowed down any but we are hoping it will soon. We had Addy's 3 month pictures taken and then October 8th was Sara's bachelorette party. It was A LOT of fun, but I was definitely ready to get home to my baby girl the next morning! After some cuddle time Jared, Jason, mom, Addy, and I went to Mound City for the craft fair. We got a few goodies and started our Christmas shopping there. This was our 3rd year going. That evening my great aunt Betty and 2nd cousin Bobby were in town from Wichita and met Addy for the first time. It was great seeing them. The following week we celebrated my grandma's birthday with dinner out with the family. We had Sara and Jordan's wedding festivities the weekend of the 15th and they had a beautiful outdoor wedding and recption dowtown. On October 16th, we weighed Addy at home and she was 10 lbs 10oz and 23.5 inches long. It took us a few days to catch up on sleep from the busy weekend and then we went out to visit my grandparents and have lunch last week. Last Friday we met my niece Miami, dad, and Penny for lunch at one of our favorite places: Mongolian BBQ! I got cancelled from work that night and we spent it at home playing with Addy and watching tv. She rolled over for the 2nd time from her stomach to her back :) Of course Jared was playing on his phone and missed it again and then she didn't want to be on her tummy when we tried again. I worked Saturday night and then Sunday we celebrated my cousin Tyler's birthday and then went to Jared's parents that evening for a yummy dinner. We are enjoying our moments with Addyson as always, she is smiling more, especially after she first wakes up in the morning and after her naps, she likes to "talk" and her expressions make us laugh. One night we were in the living room and she dirtied her diaper while Jared was holding her and I looked over and said, "Addy did you poopy?" She shook her head no, right on cue. We couldn't stop laughing at her and we know she is too little yet, but I swear she understands. Another night awhile back Jared was saying "look at her rolls (on her legs) " and she started to whimper. When she does poop she gets real still and focuses on something and I think she is thinking to herself "if I don't move, they won't know it was me."
Addy info: She likes to hold her stuffed zebra or burp rag and plays with her rattle and new favorite musical Baby Einstein turtle toy. She loves to kick her feet, especially if she is in just her diaper. If she has socks on, she tries to pull them off and grab her toes. She usually gets 1 Tbsp of rice cereal mixed with breastmilk at night and does quite well taking it from a spoon. Her sleeping pattern is usually bed between 9:30 and 10pm and she wakes up sometime between 3 and 6am normally to eat and then goes back to sleep til 9 or 9:30. During the day she eats every couple of hours and she cat naps with 1 long nap usually. When she gets bottles, she usually takes 4 oz or breastfeeds for about 30 minutes at a time. We are amazed at how big she is getting and how much she changes. She has been in 0-3 month clothes for a few weeks and has been in size 1 diapers for about a month now.
