Weekly Update - First Haircut

Addie's Weekly Photo


This week, some friends from St. Louis area came to visit us at the lake.  Although Addie has been a bit uneasy about the boat (mainly because of her pure hatred for her lifejacket), we decided to venture out on Saturday.  The annual Shootout was taking place and we thought it would be fun to check it out.  There were so many boats out that it was difficult to see all of the races taking place, so we just cruised the lake.  It was an AWESOME day to be out and Addison did so great all day long.  I'm thinking that she's starting to get used to the lake life :)

Addie's Weekly Milestones Week of September 2, 2011 (69 Weeks):

First Haircut:  I had debated wether or not to take Addison in and get her hair cut or if I should just do it myself.  After seeing some friends botch their childrens' hair, and being paranoid about using scissors too close to her head, it was decided to let the professionals take care of it!! :)  Our pediatrician recommended that we take her to "All Dolled Up", downtown Camdenton.  Addie did relatively well considering she does not like to be messed with.  She DID cry (as you can see from the pictures below), but she didn't try to fight the lady off and she held really still!  Now we can see Addie's BEAUTIFUL eyes again!! :)

First cold of the season:  It seems too early for a cold already, but Addison has her first cold of the season :(  So far, it's just a lot of congestion and NO sleep.  Hopefully the cold doesn't last long

Fingers Crossed:  We're not sure where Addie picked this up, but she has started crossing her index and middle finger.  She will do it randomly while crawling or while watching TV.  If we cross our fingers and show her, she will giggle and pull our fingers apart.  So funny!

More Words:  Uncle Dillon said that while Addie was hanging at his house for a bit over the weekend she would try to repeat just about everything he said.  I can definitely say that she's not scared to talk :)
A few new words she seems to be perfecting are "on", "open", and "close".  Of course open is more like "O" and closed is something like "CO", but we can usually figure out what she's trying to say.

Baby Number 2 Update:
12-Week prenatal Checkup:  This appointment was short and sweet.  It was urine sample, blood pressure, and hand-held doppler (fetal heartbeat).  The heart rate was approx. 157 beats per minute and sounding healthy.  Everything looks good according to doc.
Weight:  On Friday, mommy officially caved and got a pair of maternity jeans.  I probably could've held out another month or so, but my normal jeans were getting a bit uncomfortable.  I'm wearing maternity MUCH earlier than I was with Addie, so I know FOR SURE that I have gained much more weight than the first time around.


More Pictures from the week:

Her favorite spot on the boat seemed to be on the sink!

Her FIRST hair cut!  More like a trim, but still a
very important event :) 

We usually don't do the paci unless it's bedtime, but
I knew it would get her to stay calm :) 

Playing on the patio outside
Studying her hands? :) 



SOOOO BIG! 

Playing on her Zebra scooter on the patio 

It was raining this day, so the only 
way mommy wanted to go out was
under the covered patio! :) 

It didn't stop Addie from going over to the
uncovered section!! 

She actually seemed to like the rain 

So much that she got off the scooter and 
decided to crawl through the puddles. 

She loves this little snail.  It sings "can't hurry love"
She will hand it to you and say "AW" (on) 

Our sick little girl :..(  
She didn't want to move from this spot.   

Literally!  She stayed in the same 
position for close to an hour! LOL 

Watching her favorite show again! 

Mesmerized by this group!  

Meeting daddy for lunch on Friday, she passed
out while waiting for him to come out to lunch.
She wasn't feeling well :(
