Addie gets real food

The doctor told me at her 4 month checkup that I could start feeding her baby rice cereal.
Lets just says she LOVED it.....

4 months on the 4th

Addison turned 4 months old on July 4th. We celebrated with a 4th of July party at my parents' lake house. Addison was sporting her 4th of July outfit!

4 month stats: 14 pounds, 11 ounces (75th %) 26.5 inches long (OVER 95%!)

She still sleeps all night, usually from about 9:30-8. She eats about every 3.5-4 hours.

She has started taking 2 good naps a day, and a cat nap in the evening. Such a good baby!!

The Fitzpatricks come to visit

My aunt Julie (mom's sister) and her family came to the lake for a visit. They were very eager to meet Addison. They loved her and I think the feeling was mutual.

Addison even enjoyed some girl time out on the dock in her "cabana."

I cannot believe our baby girl is growing up so fast. These last 10 weeks have flown by.

*Weighs 11lbs, 12 oz ( exactly 4 lbs more than her birth weight)

*Is 24.5 inches long!! Wowzers!

*Is smiling a lot

*Can follow objects and voices

*Can hold her head straight up if she is held upright

*Still eating about every 3 hours during the day

*Sleeps GREAT at night, usually about 6-7 hours the first stretch

*Still a cat napper during the day, but is getting more used to napping in her crib

1 month old!

Addie is already a month old! At her one month visit she was 9lbs 3oz, and 23 (so they say) inches long. Some of her milestones are:

Addison Grace Farmer

Our sweet baby girl is finally here! She was born on March 4, 2011 at 2:12pm. She was 7 lbs, 12 oz and 21 inches long.

I went in to be induced on the 3rd. I started having good contractions around 8:30am on Friday and got my epidural. I started pushing around 12:30. She was not very eager to come out, but when she did she was very healthy and strong with a really good cry! Here is one of her first photos.

Brad and my mom were in the delivery room and shortly after delivery I moved to my other room which seemed like a closet in comparison. We came home on Sunday and she was able to meet her fur siblings!

Here we are as a new family of 3!
