What a month!

What a month it has been! It seems like it has been two years that have gone by but it also feels like just two minutes that have gone by! I can't believe it has already been so long since my last blog post. It seems as if there are never enough minutes in the day. We have done so much. For starters, Addison and I have been going to the doctor on what seems a constant basis since she has been born. We go there so much that the nurses and the doctor all know us by name and don't even need her chart to know who we are! Between weight checks, lactation appointments and regular doctor visits we seem to be there at least once a week. At the begining we were there every other day! Addison had her 2 week check-up on May 20th. This is where she was:
Height: 20 3/4" 70%
Weight: 8lbs 12.2OZ 65%
Head Circumference: 36.9cm 70%

Since then, her weight has increased drastically. At her last appointment she weighed 9lbs 13oz. I can say that she is definitely a healthy baby. Also, she has been diagnosed with acid reflux. We are monitoring her and give her antacid medicine 2 times a day. She seems to be improving a lot. I can definitely say there has been less screaming since we started the medicine.

For Memorial Day, my mom, my sister, Addison, and I went to the coast here in Oregon. It was baby's first beach trip. It is always kind of cold on the coast so we had her nice and bundled up. The purple bonnet she is wearing is one that my sister I wore as babies. Her head barely fit in it because it is so large! She wasn't very amused with the coast and slept the whole time (unless she was eating). That's alright. She will have many, many more trips to the ocean. Here are a couple of pictures:

Mommy and baby! How cute.

Addison also had the opportunity of meeting her Grandpa this last weekend. My dad and his wife, Marti came from Colorado to visit for a couple of days and to see Addison. They came with a big bag of beautiful dresses for church. I can't wait to put them on her! They are absolutely adorable. We spent a day on the coast and then we spent a day at Silver Creek Falls State Park and both nights were spent with my sister and her husband. It was a jam packed couple of days and Ralph was stressed because he had finals yesterday and wasn't getting his proper studying time for them but he seemed to do alright.

This is a picture of my dad and Addison's first meeting. When we showed up to their hotel Addison was kind of fussy because she needed to be changed and fed but once I fixed that she was happy as could be.

This is a picture of us at Silver Creek Falls State Park. Marti is on the left, my dad (Jim) is in the middle and of course I am on the right. I have more pictures to post but it's not letting me so I will post them in another post.
