Seems Like Yesterday

Believe it or not, Addyson was born three months ago today. Here is a little update on how and what she is doing. The big thing is Addyson is still as healthy as can be, next month we have her 4 month check up so we will keep you posted on that but it seems like everything is going well. As progress goes, if you now make eye contact with her and make some baby noises she will smile from ear to ear for you. She's also kicking her legs a lot lately. Today, I gave her a bath and she kicked water onto the mirror (Pretty Impressive). She also can spit, or should I say launch her binky across the room (Even More Impressive). She will also sit there and make weird noises like she is trying to talk to you, of course Kristi and I have no clue what she is saying but we think it's still a big step. If I had to guess, she's probably telling me that I should take a shower but I just remind her that I only take a shower every two weeks. (J/K) Here is a picture of Addyson kicking her legs and having a little fun with her Leap Frog toy.

Touchdown Cougars!!!

No!!Kristi and I are not original cougars, in fact Kristi is a Central Washington, Stray/Spaded Wildcat (Or something like that) and I am a Bemidji State, Beaver (let the jokes begin on that one) but we do root for the Coug's. Kristi's, Dad was a Cougar and when I worked in Spokane 95% of the people I worked with came from Wazzu, so I jumped on the band wagon and joined them. I also became a Gonzaga fan when I was over there but that's a whole nother story. This past Saturday during the Apple Cup, we captured these pictures of Addyson sporting her Cougar outfit and even though she wasn't awake for the last touchdown she stilled signaled it. I guess even though she was asleep she knew how the game was going to turn out. SORRY DOG FANS!!

Doing What I'm Told

Addyson was wearing this shirt when I got home from work today so I just did what it said. Although, I have to say it did get a little weird when we went to the grocery store and everyone started kissing her. We were there for five hours while everyone lined up to give her a kiss. I think at one point the Fire Chief threaten to close down the building because there were so many people waiting. I heard the line went all the way around the building but I didn't see it so I'm not sure if that is true or not. I guess it's the price we have to pay for having such a beautiful,cute,precious little girl.

Daddy's Little Girl!!

Last Saturday Ryan and I went to a wedding shower for Brooke and David thrown by some of Brooke and Ryan's co-workers. Since Brooke told me this was an adult only party we had my sister watch Addyson for us. But before we dropped her off I snapped some picture's of her with her daddy.

Smiling

For a while now Ryan and I have been trying to capature a picture of Addyson smiling and awake. It seems lately she has been sleeping alot and it has been a harder thing to capature than we thought. Today we were at our friends Matt and Lori's taking a couple of pictures and we were lucky enough to get a picture of her smiling with her friend Andrew looking on.

WHO DOES SHE LOOK LIKE?

Here is a picture of Kristi at 3 months

Here is Addyson at 2 1/2 months

Here's a picture of me at 4 months!!

We thought it would be fun to put a baby picture of Addyson, next to a baby picture of Kristi, and a baby picture of myself for all of you guys to see. I think in a lot of ways she looks like me but she acts a lot like Kristi. Although I really think she looks like my dad more than both of us so I will probably call her "Bob" until she is 40!

A Little Funny!!

Kristi and I just noticed this, Look at the picture of Shawn and I, and then look at Kristi's family picture, notice anything? Bryan and I are wearing the exact same outfit!! How weird is that. I guess Kristi's mom still has this outfit, so if Kristi and I ever have a boy, guess what outfit he will be wearing? If we never have a boy, I guess I will just have to throw it back on and wear it to work. Don't worry, we will take a picture of that and post it for all of you to see. YES!!

Green Lake

Believe it or not I finally got a weekend off . I had to work 10 days straight to get it but that's alright. Since it doesn't happen that often Kristi, Addyson, and I wanted to make the most out of it, so we made a trip into Seattle and walked around Green Lake. We called our friend Brooke to see if she wanted to join us for the 2.8 mile adventure, But really who's counting? Here's a couple of pictures of us on our stroll.

Sisters

Well, it took a little while but Riley finally made her grand entrance onto the blog. I was sitting on the couch feeding Addyson when Riley came over to investigate and see what we were doing. Riley for the most part is pretty good with her of course we still watch her like a hawk but she does pretty well. The thing we like to do is ask Riley,"Where's Addyson?" Riley will run off and look in the pack and play or in the swing. It's pretty entertaining.

Minnesota Wild

I snapped this picture of Addyson wearing my Minnesota Wild hat. I can already hear you all saying, "Man she look good wearing Minnesota gear." To all of you I say, YOUR RIGHT!!

Dr.'s Appointment

Addyson just had her two month doctor's appointment. The doc said that everything looked good and that she looks very healthy. She has already grown to 22 1/8", can I say DUNK DUNK!! That height is in the 40 percentile for babies at her age. She weighs 9lbs 3 oz (10 percentile), and her head is 14 3/4" (25 percentile). At the appointment Addyson had to get 3 different shots. Two in one leg and one in the other. I have to say it wasn't pretty. She was beat red in the face and crying so loud that I'm guessing people in Seattle were asking, "What in the world is that high pitch sound?".

When Kristi got home she snapped this picture of her battle wounds. Don't worry the nurse was able to stop the bleeding from her shots with two Daffy the duck band aids. We will be heading back to the doctors in 2 months for her 4 month appointment and will keep you posted.
