Ok, ok. I know it has been ages since my last post. Summer flies! Time flies!!
I am hoping that in the next few days I will have the opportunity to post a few of our million pictures from this past month. But, until then the written word will have to do.
Addison has been growing in leaps and bounds and she is doing new things all the time! Just recently she has begun saying "mama" and "dada". Now, she hasn't yet figured out that I am "mama" and Curtis is "dada". But I am sure that she will get it soon enough.
Addison has also been teething over the past few weeks. Knock on wood, this hasn't been too bad. Some fussiness but nothing like I thought. She has one adorable tooth on the lower left and I just noticed yesterday that the right one is now working its way through. I am glad for this as I thought she may end up being a one toothed wonder.
I have recently discovered the importance of being an attentive parent. A few weeks ago, when Addison had gotten up a little too early for my liking, we went downstairs where I thought I could lay down on the couch while she played on the floor. Needless to say I accidentally drifted off while my immobile (so I thought) daughter played with her "Rainforest" mat. Well, I was awoken by the most terrifying scream!! I jumped up to find that my "immobile" daughter had made her way to the VCR and her fingers were now stuck in it!! Poor little thing! Needless to say, I no longer sleep while she plays.
Now just because I say that she is mobile doesn't mean that she is crawling yet. But she is working on it. Addison has figured out how to get up on her hands and knees. In this position she will rock back and forth trying her hardest to move forward. Only to collapse (usually onto her face) in utter exhaustion. Crawling is hard work! I'm sure she will get it sooner or later. Although Curtis and I are hoping for the later. Once they start...
Well, I guess that is the past few weeks in the tiniest of nutshells. I will get on the pictures soon. Promise...
because she spent the whole time eating!) What a blast!
