Let it Snow!!

Yesterday it snowed so much here in GA!!! It was super exciting and reminded me of MI...I absolutely love the snow. I hate to drive in it but love to play in it and freshly fallen snow looks so beautiful! We wanted Addy to see her first real snow fall and so we bundled her up and took her out into the cold!! I think she liked it. Here are a few pics of Addy in the snow!

I am getting so big!!

Addison is getting so big...she seems like such a little person these days!! I mean she always seems like a person but its just different now...she just seems so grown up! It is so exciting but so sad at the same time. It is so true what everyone says "enjoy this time while you can because it goes by fast" boy isn't that the truth. She has the cutest little personality... she can be sassy but also so sweet and shy. If we say something to her she kinda tilts her head down and bats those beautiful eyes at us...acting so sweet and innocent but then there are the moments when she is ticked and let me tell you...she definitely lets you know when she doesn't like something. She is a really good baby, always happy and content besides the few crabby moments when she is tired or hungry but that is expected. This week we took her to the Dr. for her four month check up and these are her stats: she is 25in long in the 75%, she weighed 13lbs 4.8oz 50% and her head was in the 50% too. Dr. Dixon is so pleased with her progress...he said we could start feeding her solids!! So today I gave her a little bit of rice cereal on a spoon and at first she didn;t know just what to think but by the end she was liking it!! He also said that we could start mixing in fruits and veggies and so I am going to start making homemade baby food!! I am really excited to start this. I am just going to wait a week to make sure she gets used to eating from a spoon!! She also got shots which were no fun but she did really great!! Addy is rolling over, pushing herself up (before we know it she will be crawling), taking things out of her mouth and putting them back in...like I said she is just such a little person! We have to buckle her into everything now because she trys to push herself out...little stinker! She is growing up fast and continues to melt our hearts everyday! Anyway, enough bragging about our sweet little baby girl!! I cannot wait for y'all to see her...she is absolutely the most precious baby in this world! I am including video of Addy's first rice cereal and a pic of her poor little legs. We love you all!!

Today Addy is 4 months old and it is so hard to believe. It seems like just yesterday we were at the hospital waiting for her arrival!! I know I have said this so many times but these last 4 months have just been the best 4 months of our lives!!
