4 weeks old!!! :-)






I can't believe it has been a week since I've been on here.....maternity leave is going by way too quickly and my little pumpkin is growing like a weed! :-)
It has been a fun week.....a visit with Katrina and Emily last week, Addison's photo shoot on Sunday with our friends Erik and Kim (so much fun coming up with creative pics!), tons of time outside in the beautiful weather, a relaxing night of football with our friends Courtney and Chris last night, and a long walk with Anne today on the river and with Noah today around Lake of the Isles!
Addison had her first bottle on Saturday and did great!!! We are trying to keep bottles to a minimum for now, but it is such a relief to know that she will take one!!! I have been having a few little issues with the breastfeeding lately.....which resulted in a few long nights, but I am still sticking with it and things are improving with a little help from some friends and the lactation consultant. The last two nights I have both gotten more sleep......6-7 hours cumulative....amazing!
Addison is getting so big! Her cheeks are filling out and she is loving her play mat even more each day! She has got to be well over 7 lbs now...I can't wait to have her weighed at the lactation appointment tomorrow! Her little newborn outfits are fitting her much better now and she is out of most of her premie clothes! We love her more and more each day as we continue to bond and understand each other better and better!
Enjoy our most recent pics......the pumpkin hat is the "October hat" from Opa!
We are looking forward to a visit from Noah's parents starting this Sunday!!! :-)
