9 Months

Addi had her 9 mo. check up today. The Dr. said she's doing just great! She weighed 17lbs 15oz (50th percentile) and measured 27 3/4 inches tall (also 50th percentile).

Addison can now crawl and has begun to pull herself up on everything!!! She is still quite vocal and has finally said "Ma Ma"!!!!! She just said it for the first time on Friday! I was so excited to finally hear those two little words! She also makes this funny clicking sound with her tongue.
She eats baby food as well as small bites of adult food. (I am still nursing as well.)
She enjoys drinking out of her sippy cup. (She has to tip it straight up towards the ceiling everytime she drinks. It's quite funny!)
Her favorite t.v shows are Dora and the Teletubbies. (Don't let her fool ya, she also like Sesame Street and The Goodnight Show.)

I can't believe she's 9mos. old already! Before I know it - we'll be celebrating her first birthday.
!Aye, Dios Mio!

Baby's First Christmas

What a Merry Christmas we had this year!

Our Christmas started on the 22nd! Matt and I had decided to let Addi open her gifts Friday morning. I think it was more fun for us than it was for her. (She was most interested in the wrapping paper.) Nonetheless, it was a very exciting family moment for us.


On Saturday, we went to The Dykstra's for lunch, gifts, games and cookie & pretzel decorating. We had a great time doing what we do... mostly being loud and laughing!

Sunday morning we were up and running. Addison was going to Florida for her first time to see "The Pitzer's". Not only were her grandparents, Uncle Dave, Aunt Lori and Cousin Chris going to be there, but Uncle Scott, Aunt Stephanie and Cousins Alyssa and Josh from Ohio (Go Blue!) were going to be there as well! This is the first time all of the Pitzer's have been together in one place since our trip to Maine in 2003!
We ended up having a great time together. We even managed to get a family picture taken as well!

Although our Christmas (week and a half) was a busy one it sure was special. As this "baby's first Christmas", I'll remember forever.
