6mths~sitting up~cutting teeth!!!

When I last posted about Addie's 6mth check-up, she was teething and almost sitting up on her own. Well, she has since cut two bottom teeth and is now sitting up well on her own. She loves to sit up and play with her toys! Something else that she loves is her jumparoo. We've been putting her in the saucer since she hasn't been able to touch in the jumparoo. Now, she can touch and loves it! Several weeks ago, I came home from work and Scott was playing with Addie(he keeps her 2days a week). He said watch what Addie can do now. He put her in the jumparoo and she started jumping and having a ball. It was too funny:)

I had also written before about Addison waking up during the night @ about 5 1/2 mths. Thought it was just habit, but later found out it was the beginning of the teething process. It wasn't too bad then. You cld feed her a little or pat her bottom to get her back to sleep. That lasted til around 6 mths or so. She later cut the two bottom teeth and started sleeping thru the night again. That lasted a few weeks until now. About a week ago, she did fine thru the night, but was cranky during the day...not like her at all! Not too much was making her happy. I assumed it was the teething...u can always blame it on that!LOL Even the babysitter noticed the difference. Anyway, for the past few nights, she has been waking again. A few nights ago, it was just restless sleeping and seemed ok. The next night, it was pretty much the same thing, but got more sleep that night. Last night, it was horrible!!! She hasn't cried this much since she was 3 months old with reflux! Of course, Scott was at work and I was home by myself. It started around 9:30 and continued on and off til about 3:00 that morning. Nothing really works when she's that upset. She finally stopped crying and went back to sleep after another dose of Tylenol and some teething gel...that's when Scott walked in after it was all over! I noticed a bit more of her whites showing this morning so I guess they were cutting through more. She's done fine today so I'm hoping the worst is over until next time:) If anyone has any suggestions besides the norm, please LET ME KNOW!!!
She's having her 6mth pics done on Monday so I'll be posting them soon!

Here's a video of Addie in her jumparoo


Here are a few of my favorite pics of her sitting up...
This is when we first realized she could do it.


She looks so cute in her outfit and new bow.


This was taken at Mrs. Kelly's house.


These were taken last weekend at Nana's house.

Daddy's Little Girl!!!

Over the weekend, Scott, Addie and I headed to Wal-Mart. I dressed her in jean overalls and a green shirt. Scott had his green on too. While I was getting ready, Scott and Addie were sitting on the bed watching TV. Everyone says she looks like her Daddy, but this picture REALLY shows it...hair line and all! Of course I had to get pictures;-)...Believe it or not, she looks a lot like me too when I was about 6mths old.





Here are a couple other pics that I thought were cute:) No more SUPERMAN...she's gotten the hang of it!





Update... When we took her for her check up a couple of weeks ago, doc said she was probably teething. She hasn't been cranky, but she's been waking at night. Also running low fever, runny nose and pulling at her ear. Anyway, he said give it about a month and you'll probably see teeth. Well, he was right! Scott thought earlier today that he felt something. Later on, I was noticing some redness and felt too. It was definitely the little tops of her two bottom teeth! My baby is getting so big!

6mth check-up!!!

Wow...can't believe my little Addie Grace is already 6 months old! She had her check-up on Monday and he said she looked great. She weighed 19lbs and was 28 inches long...off the charts(90th percentile)! He said she's definintely long for her age...takes after her mommy;-}


She's been having some sleeping issues over the past month or so and we thought it might be due to teething. The doc said she hasn't cut them yet, but is probably teething. He said it could also be her use to waking at a certain time. Guess we'll see. She's still rolling over and almost sitting up on her own. It won't be long! Here are a few pics I took the other day.

Addie's new thing....Screaming!!!

This video was taken a week or so ago. It happens to be Addie's new thing...to scream over and over. It's really funny though. LOL! My neice says she looks possessed here and she kinda does cause of the way her eyes look and the way her hands move. It almost sounds like she's pooping at the end. I told Scott if we entered this on the Funniest Home Videos, it would probably win. Check it out...

Our Precious Baby Girl is 5 months!

 



Our little Addie is getting so big! She will soon be 6 months! She seems happier than ever...most of the time! She's always smiling or trying to "talk". She now does this screaming thing where she'll do it for a few seconds then stop and look to make sure we heard it. It's almost like that's her way of getting our attention...like a little temper! It's kinda funny. She's still rolling over and doing a lot better with holding herself up and trying her hardest to crawl. She sits up pretty well, but you have to hold her or she'll fall over. She wants to put EVERYTHING in her mouth! She loves her veggies and we also started her on some applejuice. Ever since she got sick with RSV, she has not been sleeping through the night anymore. She wakes at least once a night. She was sleeping thru anywhere from 9-10 hours w/out waking. We thought maybe it could be early teething, but not sure. We will find out for sure in a couple of weeks. It's making the nights hard on mommy and daddy again!

Scott's mom, sister, niece & nephew visited last weekend. They haven't seen Addie since Christmas. They were really excited to see her. Here are a few pics from their visit.

She looked so cute for church in her Valentine's dress.

Rolling over and Laughing out loud!

Well, Addison is finally rolling over pretty much every time she's on her back now. When I turn around, she's on her stomach! She's done it a few times before, but never more than once or twice in a row in the same day. It's funny how random it is when they decide they want to do things. She was laying in the floor the other night and rolled right over. Getting over her arm was giving her trouble before, but she finally she figured out to push a little harder:) The only problem with this is she hates being on her tummy! She hasn't figured out how to put her arms underneath and push up. She flies like superman, but also looks like a penguin sliding on her belly. It is so funny to watch.



When she gets tired of holding herself up, she sometimes falls asleep!:)






She's also started laughing out loud. She's done this before too, but now does it a lot. It's certain people that really get her going...my dad and my aunt Tita. They don't have to do much and she'll just start chuckling continuously. Scott and I can also get her going during bath time, which she loves. My mom now calls her the "giggle box". I've tried getting her on video, but she always stops once the camera is on her. Oh, well...I will get her one of these days.

Here are a few more pics from the week:
