Addisen Clair was born on May 19, 2011 (her Aunt Alecia's birthday!). We found out at our 20 week ultrasound that she did not develop her right hand and part of her lower right arm. Despite this, she is a totally normal, happy and healthy little girl. I use to wonder how she'll do "this" or "that," but we're finding that somehow she figures it out... She does it Addie's Way! Through this blog I'm hoping to document the adventures we have while raising Miss Addisen Claire.

Time flys!
I can't believe my little baby girl will be turning one in less than a month. She now has 4 teeth, two up & two down. She is crawling (fast!) and cruising furniture. She LOVES Cheerios, bananas, deli meat and cheese. Her favorite game is to hide her face behind anything resembling a blanket and play peek-a-boo! Lately she's been brave and has finally decided to explore her favorite puppy, Willow, by attempting to crawl on her and whack her with her prosthetic arm! Willow is a good sport about it and will SNEEK a kiss on Addie's face. She has been doing great at daycare, playing with Alona's kids and her buddy Audrey. She's so ticklish, loves going upside down, and bops along to the songs she likes. She makes us laugh every day. I'm counting down the weeks until I get to hang out with her all summer!

A Break Through
After months of wondering, it finally happened. Addisen cut her two bottom teeth this past weekend. It took two long sleepless nights, but she was a happy baby during the day. Good thing we didn't have to work in the morning. And now the last 3 nights she's slept thought the night! That sweet gummy smile of hers is going to start filling in... Just another reality check that my baby is growing up.

On the go!
It was close to bedtime, Adam had just given Addisen a bath and they were playing in her room. Adam calls me in from the kitchen. Addisen is laying on her tummy smiling and looking at Adam. Then all of a sudden she picks that cute little tush of hers off the floor, knees tuck under and she scoots forward! Ahh! It begins! Just days after turning 8 months old, this girl is getting on go! I got a little teary eyed because I can't believe we're here already. That and life as I know it is about to change, chasing this little rug rat around the house! Have you seen her legs kick, kick, kick? We are in trouble! At least now she'll be able to give Willow a run for her money.
