It's been a While...



Ok..so it has been a while since I last wrote anything...sorry! We have been pretty busy.  Addison is growing so fast and it is amazing how time flies! Her two month check-up is next week.  We are settling into a routine and (drum roll please!) she is SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! She just started this two weeks ago and it has made life so much better :) She usually sleeps from about 10:00 pm until 6 or 7:00 am. This is a huge blessing for us! 
She is also smiling so much more now and she is making all kinds of new sounds. She can also recognize sounds and she knows my voice. Nothing melts my heart more than when she turns to look and smile as I am talking to her. Her new thing is the ceiling fan. She absolutely LOVES it. We turn it on and  she is mesmerized. Joey taught her that she can control it by wiggling her legs. When the fan stops she wiggles and then he will turn it back on. Then it stops and she wiggles some more...it is hilarious. She moves so much! Her legs are constantly in motion, kicking and wiggling. In fact, a few days in a row she has wiggled right out of her nightgown. I came in to find her in the morning smiling happily in nothing but her diaper. Crazy girl! Another thing she loves is going for car rides. For the first few weeks this was how Joey and I kept our sanity! She falls asleep immediately once we get her in the car. Now when we put her in her car seat she has huge smiles, in fact, we don't have to even go anywhere and she will fall asleep! In some ways the past 8 weeks seem to have flown by and in many ways it seems it has taken years. However, each new day is exciting watching her grow.
