Addy's ear appointment

We went in to Children's Hospital yesterday and Addy did great! We did get news that both of her ears work, she can hear. Ironically they did the original test that failed her left ear and this time she failed her rigth ear. The Dr. said it is most likely earwax build up. We will go in to have her ear canals cleaned and have another hearing test when she is about 7mo. This one we will not have to sedate her...thank goodness. We are home today, she is still not quite herself and cannot keep much of her food down. We are just taking it slow and resting a lot. I hope my little bunny is feeling 100% by the end of the day.

Update

Addy had her Post OP check up and it looks like she is just as healthy as can be. I am amazed that she is now at 14.4 lbs from 13 since her wellness check up a few weeks ago. Wednesday we will head into Children's Hospital for a sedated Auditory Brain stem Response test. Basically they are going to measure her brain waves as it reacts to sound to identify why she is not passing her newborn hearing test in her left ear. I will keep everyone posted as soon as we get home from the procedure.

She has also kicked up her eating. She now will consume 4oz of either a fruit or veggie at night. Her favorites so far are carrots, sweet peas, green beans, sweet potato, and pears. She is not a huge fan of the squash but will eat it. She does not like bananas, applesauce or peaches very much. It looks like we have a vegetable eater on our hands.

My Summer...by Addy VforVictory

Wow Addy has had such a crazy summer I figured I would let her put together a great movie and let everyone know where she has been in just short 5 months she has been in this world.

Adelyn Update!

So much as been going on. Addy started to roll over onto her tummy and from her tummy to her back. However, Addy learned quick that it is easier to cry on her tummy and have mom and dad put her on her back insead of rolling back over on her own..


Addy had her 4 moth wellness check up on Wednesday. She is growing up more that out. She is 25 inches long that puts her in the 78th percentile and 13 lbs. that puts her in the 35th percentile. It is no surprise that we have created a tall skinny baby. She is also working on her first tooth. We did get the news that we can start eating fruits and veggies! I will try to get that video up here. It is not working for some reason.

Addy wants to give her Grandma and Grandpa Bloom a great big thank you. She got her Exersaucer on Thursday. She enjoys sitting in it and looking at everything. Mommy loves it too because she can get a bit more done.

Addy feeling better

Addy was sick for the first time last Friday. We went to the hospital a 5:30 Friday morning with a fever of 101.5 when we got there she was so whinging I had never heard her sound so sad my heart broke. She just had a cold but she was feeling very down and out for Friday and Saturday. Sunday she was feeling better and had bounced back for Monday, daycare said she had an awesome day. I was so happy to see her feeling better. I still wish that a baby was born with an instruction manual. But we made it through.

Unfortunately we were sick for daddy's birthday but dad had a great birthday. He was given some great golf balls and had a weekend packed full of golf...golf...golf. Happy Birthday to Justin!

July update

Okay...okay...I know it has been a while since I updated the blog but man alive it has been a crazy month. It was also a month of first times for Addy.

We started off with going up north for the 4th of July we had so much fun and it was a great ending to my maternity leave. Adelyn got to go on her first boat ride and was in her first parade! She took part of the 4th of July boat parade, she enjoyed it for a few minutes...then the engine sound put her right to sleep. We will have to wait until next year for her first time seeing fireworks, she slept through those as well.

I began work on July 7th. That was a bit of an adjustment, I was getting use to waking up at 7 and taking my time getting ready and getting Addy ready. I also enjoyed all of the time I was spending with Sean. We were having so much fun but of course reality sets in. Addy adjusted to daycare well. I am still adjusting to daycare.

Adelyn and I went to Louisiana for Cousins weekend on July 10. She was absolutely wonderful the entire time. She met her great grandma and all of her cousins. She had a ton of fun with the family. She did create a reputation for herself...now she just has to be a perfect child every time we go to visit the family. She set the bar high for herself. I will have a slide show of cousin's weekend posted in a few days.

Addy wanted to say a few words to everyone...

4th of July
