Two Months Old!

Addison is two months old today!

New nicknames: Binkasaurous and Super Pooper
New fascination: Sticking her tongue out
New developments: Her crying is much louder and she will follow us with her eyes as we move around a room

Addy has graduated to the baby tub because she is too long for the bathroom sink. Addy cried throughout her bath today but as I finished she decided it wasn't so bad and calmed down. Look at her cute little milk tummy!

Addy loves her daddy! She gives us big smiles when we play, get her up from her nap and imitate the noises she makes. Her biggest joy these days seems to be when we change her diaper. She will smile and as soon as the diaper comes off she will start kicking up a storm! We have started calling it the bicycle kick. It takes us forever to finish changing her because we are laughing so hard.

Addy has become fascinated with the mobiles on her crib and changing table. I am very thankful for this because it allows me a minute to, um...get stuff done.

Addy knows when it's meal time. We always place a burp cloth under Addy's chin before we give her a bottle (she is a little droolly). When she sees that cloth coming her eyes get big, she starts breathing faster and she moves her head back and forth like she is looking for the bottle. A few seconds of pure excitement!

The Paisley Pot

Marie and my future sister-in-law, Chris, joined me at The Paisley Pot in Loveland last weekend to do some pottery painting. They have 250 pieces to choose from and a variety of paints, stamps and stencils to use. You paint your masterpiece, they pop it in the kiln, and a week later you pick it up (for an average price of $25). This is definitely going to be a new addiction for me (Yes, I am my mothers daughter!)
