"Dada"

Yup, you guessed it! Addisyn is now saying dada! She started it this morning while the three of us were lying in bed, and has been doing it nonstop since. Now if we can get her to say mama...

Addisyn's 6 mos check-up

Addisyn had her check-up today and is continuing to grow like a weed! She's up to 20 lbs 13 oz, which is the 97th percentile still, and is 27" long, which drops her to the 90th percentile. She received all of her immunizations plus the flu shot, and with the exception of a low grade fever and a little fussiness, she did well. She will get the other 1/2 of the flu shot next month, then she's done with immunizations until March.

Addisyn is 6 mos old!

I can't believe our baby girl is 6 months old already! During the past month she's turned into a pro at sitting and reaching for objects without loosing her balance and is now able to make many different noises with her mouth and tongue. She's also been working on getting into the crawling stance - we're so not ready for that! The most exciting change for me this past month, is seeing her excitement when I've been gone for a while and come back, and having her reach for me. We celebrated her 1/2 birthday with a cereal & plum mixture topped off with a candle! Her check-up won't be till 10/7, so stay tuned for the growth update.

Addisyn's trip to the nation's capital

We took an extended weekend to DC - Brad for a medical conference, and Addisyn & I just to get away. During the daytime, we did some sightseeing, swimming in the hotel pool, and a little shopping. Before coming home, we went to the zoo. Addisyn seemed to enjoy looking at the animals!
