52 Week Update - ONE YEAR OLD!!!!

One Year Pic:




I can't believe she's already a year old!  On Saturday we threw a big party for Addie's birthday.  I couldn't have asked for a better day!  My mom was there to help me set up and get everything in order, otherwise things might have turned out a lot differently.  We had a really big turnout and a TON of gifts.  I will get more pictures of the party on here soon, but I put a few (below).


Milestones:

Addie's one-year checkup:
Height:
Weight:
Head:
I will have the info on here soon, the doctors office forgot to give me the stats sheet before I left and when I called to get her weight/height information they said they wouldn't give it to me over the phone. HUMPH! Everything looks good to the doctor though.  The only thing she really drew attention to was that Addie still does not have teeth.  She recommended that I take Addison to see a dentist..... :::pause for laughter:::
I politely smiled at the doctor and nodded and proceeded to take her to daddy's office where he took an x-ray to see where those little toofers are.  Sure enough, Addie has teeth in there and they look like they're just about ready to come through.  Only a matter of time!!

Other Misc. Updates....
Eating:  We have never had a problem getting Addison to eat, but she seems to have always liked liquids more than solids.  Even water, she prefers over eating.  She basically has a mind of her own and eats the solids when she wants.
Sleeping:  It seems like in the last two weeks, a switch has gone off and Addison's sleeping habits have been AWESOME!  She wakes up around 7am takes two naps in the middle of the day and then goes to bed at 8pm every night.
Pooping:  Since eating habits are not completely consistent with Addie, her pooping can be a little off at times.  We see about 4 "dirty" diapers per week (sometimes more).
Mobility:  Until recently, crawling was the only thing our little girl was interested in.  Over the last few weeks though, she pulls herself up on everything she can.  I wouldn't say that she will be walking tomorrow, but we're a lot closer!
Talking:  So far, Addie has said Dada, Mama, and BuhBuh (for our dog buddie).  When mommy or daddy try to get her to repeat anything else, she looks at us and smiles or giggles.

Our landscaping is almost done outside.
Addie can't wait to go out and play!

For now, she sits inside and plays with decorations... 

Nana and Addie setting up for the big 0-1 birthday party! 

"Aunt-D" Mommy's friend Danielle and her daughter Layne
came to Addie's birthday party.   

Addie really wanted nothing to do with her "smash" cake. 

I think she just wanted to know why everyone was
staring at her and snapping pictures!! 

Finally, she had enough! 

Nana came to the rescue and rinsed the icing off. 

Thanks Nana! :) 

Now she's a happy baby! 

Present time!  We couldn't believe how many gifts she received! 

She was pretty excited though. 

You can't go wrong with bubbles! 

Nana got Addie a bubble blower. 

This was a Learning puppy from Aunt Shan, Uncle Mark
Calin, Macie and Lexie.  Addie giggled when it sang to her. 

Addie is climbing on her cousin Ethan.  That's her
aunt "Naundie" (Shaunda) in the background.

Mommy showing everyone how
Addie knows where her belly is.
"Where's your belly.....THERE IT IS!" 

Addie laughs every time we pat her belly.
