Weekly Update - Saying "HI"

Weekly Photo

Over last weekend, we visited with some of the Raube and Kuntz family in Bloomington and Pontiac.  Addie was able to see her grandparents on both sides of mommy's family.  It was really nice to see everyone, especially since it had been a while.  We were able to get a few pictures (see below).

Milestones Week of July 15 (62 Weeks):

Miss personality:  Lately, Addison's mood has changed drastically with her teething.  She is much more irritable and short-tempered.  Once her teeth come through, I'm thinking we will start seeing her happy personality come back :)

Food habits:  Before naps, Addison usually gets a small snack and milk to help fill up her belly.  Her favorite snack is 1/2 of a peanut butter sandwich.  Generally, we will cut the bread up to make it easy for chewing.  Lately though, we decided to just cut the crust off and give it to Addie whole.  She did great biting off pieces and not choking/gagging.  Her ability to eat the sandwich without any help from mommy or daddy is a pretty big milestone for us and shows that she might be ready for a variety of other foods.

Teething:  We can see almost all of Addison's front top and bottom two teeth.  It seems as though her gums are swollen and more teeth are trying to come through.  We're hoping that it's a quick breakthrough for her and not too painful, but her moods are proving otherwise :(

Extended Vocabulary: Addison has started saying "HI".  Daddy taught the word to her earlier in the week and she says it repeatedly now! ha ha  It's so cute because she will pop her head up next to where we are sitting, smile really big and say "HI".  So cute!
