We can hardly believe two weeks have passed since giving birth to our little Addison. She surprises us everyday and is such a blessing in our lives. Since she arrived her weight dropped after birth but as of last Thursdays visit to the pediatrician she is up to 7 lbs 12 oz. Today she has been the explorer having stayed awake for most of the day looking around and taking in all she can see around her. Since day one she has lifted her head with such strength which continues to increase each day. Her eyes have also darkened and we think the dark blue is turning to brown which would be no surprise as we both have brown eyes. Her hair definitely has red in it and the sun shows lovely highlights of strawberry in her reddish brown hair. Wednesday we had the photographer over who did my belly pictures for Addison's newborn and announcement photos. We are excited to see the proofs as she was very cooperative throughout and we got some cute and creative shots which we are excited to share. If you'd like a sneak peek to a few visit her site at: www. sheilayphoto.com and go to her blog. You will see some of my pregnancy shots further down and Addison's shots up top. It was a lot of fun and Sheila is great! Keep her in your prayers as she and her husband are going through the adoption process.
Daddy and Addie
Bathtime in the kimono Mi-Mi got for Addison. This bath was enjoyed much more than the first at home as she loved watching and hearing the water running. This weekend she will be able to have a real bath as her cord has fallen off and she can actually use her tub for the next bath.
Looking at Daddy whom she loves so much. She has been so much more curious about lights, moving objects and focusing on distinct objects. She is already growing up too fast!
Long, skinny feet like her Mom's (but still too tiny for the smallest shoes)- let's hope this means she'll be tall.
