All by herself....


I better enjoy these last few days of immobility for Addison.  She is THIS close to crawling.  She does this thing where she gets up on her knees and arms and just rocks.....then face plants.

And, drumroll please.....she sat up by herself tonight unassisted for 3 whole minutes...and then side planted.  

Here are a few pics from the week.



She does this thing when she's eating where she fist pumps and then just leaves it up there for about 10 minutes...as if to say, "Power to the people"
My new favorite thing this week.  The Baby safe feeder is the best invention.
BS Feeder + Frozen fruit from Sams = at least 20 minutes of entertainment
See?  I can sit. 

You may notice that there is not one smile in all of these pictures.  The girl has been in a mood all day.  It's pretty funny actually.  Yesterday everything was hilarious....laughing, smiling...today...not in the mood.

Actually, funny story.  Last night Addison woke up around 10pm....unusual for her.  We could not figure out what was going on.  Hungry? No.  Diaper issues?  None.  So I decided to just rock her.  Addison has never been a cuddler.  She is not the kid who just snuggles with you, so I take any advantage to have a few sweet, quiet moments where she will just sit still in my arms.

I decided to sing to her.  Those of you that know me well know I cannot sing...at all.  I even turn off the baby monitor so Andy can't make fun of me.  But Addison always seems at least interested in my singing, if not calmed by it.  So I'm singing "Twinkle, twinkle...." and she is just staring up at me and I'm thinking, "Oh, we're having a moment..."

And then....she just starts cracking up laughing at me.  I stopped...kind of taken aback.  So I start in again, "twinkle, twinkle..."  and she is just laughing it up.  So apparently, Addison also thinks my singing voice is so bad, it's laughable.
