Updates!

So it has been a little while since I last had a chance to post. It is amazing how quickly time flies by. This past week has been filled with lots of fun and busyness. Addison attended her first concert in the park last Thursday evening with Grandma Ono (my mom, a she calls herself) and Grandma Janet, and of course mom and did fantastic. We are looking forward to going again this evening with even more friends. Friday, Addison went to the doctor for her weight check, weighing in at 7lbs 11ozs. (by now I am almost certain she is over 8lbs, and growing like crazy). Saturday was a big day when K went to work and Grandma Ono and Mom went down to 2nd street for lunch and a nice stroll. Addison slept well in her stroller and only had one blow out that day on her cute little outfit. Blowouts seem to be a trend lately and tend to happen at least once a day. :). Sunday we attended church, and once again Addison slept through mass and was a perfect angel. Afterwards we had some friends over for coffee and some treats. K played in a softball game when they didn't have enough players and Addison is very proud of her daddy and and the catches in the outfield that were made. Sunday evening was spent at our good friend's and Addison's Godparents, Steve and Maria. Their kids got to hold the baby and had a great time playing with my big kid, K.

This week has gotten off to good start too. Monday, Addison and mom were home while K was at work and had a bit of a rough fussy morning, but was finished off nicely with the visiting and dinner with good friends, Patsy, Cassie, and Shelby. Grandma Ono was also over, as she is quite a bit, which we could not be more grateful for all her help and assistance!

Enough of our week, Addison is growing so quickly and changing, I can't believe it. The other morning she was imitating my facial expressions of sticking out her tongue, opening her mouth wide, and making a kissy face. It was the cutest thing ever. We have also started "tummy time", which Addison seems to enjoy for a little while. What is amazing is how she will kick her little legs and sometimes even move herself along. 3 weeks old and already on the go. She will also lift her head up. It seems like this past week, Addison has also become very aware and very curious of the things around her. She loves sitting in her bouncy chair on the table and staring at the light above, weather it is on or not. I think because it is a dark color she is able to see it very well.

We have also had some not so fantastic fussy moments, which seem to be pretty sort lived, but very dramatic. She is a little drama queen. For example, if I am feeding her and I take her off one side to burp her and then switch to the other side, you would think that the world had ended. Once on the other side, not a problem at all. The evening times seem to be her fussy time, but sometimes seem to be related to a gassy tummy. I try not to eat gassy foods, but it is tough because that includes all the veggies and fiber foods that I need to eat. All in all we are managing.

Well this was a nice long post, but I wanted to make sure all was updated. See below for some pictures from this past week. Hope everyone has a good rest of the week and has some good plans for the 4th. K will be at work for 3 days starting Friday, so our weekend will include hanging out with grandma Ono and whoever else makes it our way.
