Easter and what not....

Addison was awesome at Easter last Sunday and didn't lose her mind much at all. This was refreshing after the Wednesday prior of her going bananas while at a gathering. 

Had a pretty good week. Just regular week up to yesterday when we had Addison's 4 month appointment (and the NFL draft). Addison was 14 lbs. 14 oz. and I think 24 inches long. Everything health wise was good and she got a few more immunizations. The shots went alright. She cried for about 1 minute because of the pain and then a couple more because of our betrayal of letting it happen. Talked with Dr. Jennifer about her food and we can start rice with Addison as soon as we want and then integrate new foods every few days after that. We (Danica really) also asked about getting her ears pierced and it looks like we are going to hold off on that for a little while, which is just fine with dad. 

After her appointment we met with went and ate dinner with the Robles and then Phil and I watched the draft. Danica left after dinner and she brought Addison home with her while I stayed behind to watch the NFL draft. 

Gonna see the in-laws this weekend as we go to Paola for a visit so Addison will get to see some family. 

Below is a picture of us at Easter.

Well back to work for me. 

Daddy's Girl

Sitting in Panera doing a little work and thought an update was in order. Amber (sister-in law) is watching Addison so I can do some work uninterrupted. Also I watched her son Aden Tuesday and Thursday so we kind of traded today and last Monday. While they were with me yesterday they watched as I cooked some bacon. While doing so they jabbered back and forth a bit. The maintenance guys that swung by to change heater/ac filter thought it funny.

Took Addison to see some more family this last Wednesday. She was not the happiest baby. When she gets around too many people and she is tired it is a recipe for an angry baby. People, and different smells such as perfume, and new places get her a little agitated and excited so she can't sleep. Although she is starting to get better because if Danica and I pull her aside we can usually get her calmed down.

Its weird because when I have her at home she is never just angry crying. She cries because she is hungry or tired both are usually pretty quick fixes. But when she is around other people (even mommy sometimes) she will just lose it. This leads me to believe two hypothesis:

a) she loves attention

b) she is a total daddy's girl

My first prediction is that it is a little from column a and a little from column b. Danica will balk at these results but as she is not typing this with me I will silence her opinion. Well I hear the distinct sound of a whip cracking, back to work.

I like to move it, move it....

Addison rolled over this morning!!!

So exciting. She has been working at it for a few days now but kept getting caught up on her elbow. Then today I was watching some t.v. updating facebook when I look down and sure enough Addison was on her belly wiggling around trying to get back to her back. Going from the belly to the back isn't a skill we have acquired but she is working towards it.

She is also becoming quite the chatty Cathy. She makes noises all the time and they are becoming more and more controlled and not just making noise as she wiggles around.

Well I actually have some work to do so I better get on that. Hopefully I will be able to get out to the disc golf course sometime this week get a little extra exercise and a little sun. Finished up week 5 of my C25K but a little extra workout here and there will be good for me.
