49 Week Update - Staying Grounded

Week 49 Picture

This week Mommy and Addie took a roadtrip to Chicago, Illinois to visit "Nana" (Kristin's mom).  Along for the ride was Kristin's niece Avryl.  Nana was having surgery and we thought it would be good to be there for her.  I love watching my mom with Addie.  She's so great with her and Addie just adores her Nana!  At one point, Nana gave Addison & AV a bath and we were able to get some really funn videos of them playing in the water.  It was such a good time!


Milestones:

Staying Grounded - Addie seems strongly dislike any motion that "gets" her belly.  Over the weekend, we visited my mom who happens to live on the 12th floor of an apartment.  We took the elevator to get to her place and Addison nearly flipped her lid!!  I've never seen her freak out the way she did.  Her ams flew back as though she was falling and she began to scream & cry.  I felt horrible for her.  This happened each time we took the elevator and she even began to cry BEFORE we would get on the elevator several times. On the drive home I noticed that every time we hit a big hill that would "get her belly", she would give the same reaction as she did in the elevator.  Poor kid!!

Indian Call - Addison started making noises by patting her palm to her open mouth.  We used to do this to her using our fingers when she was much younger, but now she's figured out how to do it on her own.  VERY cute!

Off the belly - Every week, Addie seems to become more interested in getting off her belly.  Over the last several months she wanted crawl everywhere and play with her toys while still laying on her stomach.  In the last week though it seems her focus has changed to wanting to climb or sit and play.  When she wants to play with a toy, she puts herself on her butt from her belly.  When she sees something out of reach up high, she does everything she can to get to it.  Looks like she might have an interest in walking in the future?
