All by myself!!

Addie has recently started sitting up by herself and she is very excited about it! She is able to hold herself up for quite a while and she can keep her balance even when she gets wobbly. It has been fun to watch her grow and learn. Here is a video of her latest accomplishment, don't worry she didn't actually fall at the end. I guess I didn't have faith in her balance recovery skills.


Big Girl

Addison is now almost 6 MONTHS OLD!! We can hardly believe where the time has gone. The last time she was weighed she was sitting at about 13 lbs 11 ounces, which at 5 months rounds out to the 25 percentile. If you thought that was low she is actually up from 5- 10 percentile only one month before. She has grown so much just in the last month and a half and now she can roll over and sit up by herself! When we moved to Idaho the middle of January she could barely coordinate her limbs enough to grab her Binky out of her mouth and now she can throw it across the room and dump the sacrament tray as it goes by. Addison has been working diligently on cutting her first teeth and we expect her to start scooting in a particular direction rather than round and round in the next month or so. Since we have been crashing at grandpa and grandma Smiths house Addie has absolutely fallen in love with them and I think she has worked a special spot in papa's heart. Here are some more recent pictures of our sweetheart for you all to enjoy. Thank you all for loving her up and helping us in our latest struggle. Muah-Muah!!!
