Thanksgiving





We had a great first Thanksgiving with Addie with my family up at our family cabin in Elliay.
Aunt Gina, Grandmama Connie and cousin Kailey fought over turns to feed and hold Addison. We had a nice relaxing couple of days full of 70 degree weather the first couple of days and then 30 degree weather. Of course, we ate too much good food.
Then we got back home we went out and got our Christmas tree and set all the decorations up.
Let the Christmas season begin!

Crib update and Thanksgiving

The last week in terms of Addison sleeping in her crib has been great..She has been going to bed around 10 and waking up around 3:30 and then again at around 7. Then on Tuesday night she slept from 10 pm to 5:30 which allowed both Dodie and I to have a somewhat good night sleep..You can tell Dodie is waking up more refreshed and ready to face the day..As for Thanksgiving Dodie and I are going up to her mom's cabin in Ellijay..Actually Dodie is up there already with her mom, sister and her family and them tomorrow morning I am heading up there with Willow. Should be nice break to get away and enjoy being up in the mountains..

Addison 1 month doctor visit

Addison visited the doctor's office for her 1 month visit, technically a couple days later than her real 1 month birth day. She weighed in at 9 pds 1 oz which is in the 25-50 percentile and she was 22 inches which 50-75 percentile..


Mom's visit

It was great to have my mom in town to visit Addison and also get out and see the Georgia Aquarium...On Sunday she watched her and Dodie and I went to the Falcons football game for our 1st anniversary. Then on Monday all three of us went to the Aquarium, this is the first time I have been..It was a beautiful place and even though Addison couldn't recognize most things it brought out the wonder and amazement in the rest of us big kids.

Mom's coming in

My mom is coming in today from Chicago and staying till next Tuesday..We just have a few things planned such as going to the Georgia Aquarium on Monday, but other than that just try to rest and relax..Hopefully my mom can get some sleep at night because our spare bedroom is upstairs and when Addison is hungry she lets out a pretty loud cry..
