SHE DID IT!!!!!

Addie has been so close to sitting up on her own and tonight SHE DID IT!! She sat up all by herself!! Go Addie Go!!! She's still not crawling but is very close. She can move herself forward if she really wants to get to something but hasn't quite figured out how to move her arms. It's just a matter of time. Then she'll keep Liv (and us) moving!

Updates: She had her 6 month well baby visit yesterday (yes, I know she's 7 months old but it's tough getting in with her pediatrician). She is 19 lbs 15 oz (91 %ile) and 28 and 5/8 inches long (> 97%ile). She's growing fast! She's also getting her first tooth. It's hard to see but at the doctors office we were able to see a speck of white poking through her gums. Yea!!

Yesterday was a tough day for Addie. We took her to get her pictures taken in the morning....boy was that torture! For all of you who ask if she ever cries.....take her to get her pictures taken. She did not like it at all. Then, later in the day she gets 3 shots! The poor thing cried more yesterday than she has in the past month. Today she's fussy and has a low grade fever. Just enough to make her cranky. I'm sure it's a result of the shots. I wouldn't think the camera's flash would have any lasting effects!! Ha-ha!

Olivia continues to entertain us. Last week she was sitting at the dinner table and sang us a new song........"I have a little turtle. His name is Tiny Tim. I put him in the bathtub to see if he could swim. He drank up all the water. He ate up all the soap. And now my little turtle has bubbles in his throat." When you get to the end of the last line (bubbles in his throat), you have to bump your hand against your mouth as your singing to make it sound like there's bubbles coming out. It's the cutest thing! She's getting good at singing songs from start to finish.

Liv's other new things is getting naked. I went to get her up one morning and she was naked except for her diaper and her socks. During nap time at home, she's doing the same thing.....we find her with her undershirt and pull-up. Too funny!!!
