Addison and belly pics

28 weeks 6 days

Well, I have been slacking on the belly pics which stinks since I said that I was going to be better about that. I have been feeling really good. They did diagnose me with gestational diabetes which kinda stinks since now I have to really watch what I am eating! Addison is doing great! We went to the zoo the other day and she fed the giraffes and rode a pony! Here are some new Addison sayings.

• Addison just got over a cold so she did a lot of blowing her nose. When she needs a kleenex, she says "I need a blownex!"




• When we are talking about what we are doing for the day, she will say "oh, that will be fun!"




• She still remembers when we went to see the airplanes and when we see one flying in the sky, she will say, "I saw the airplanes on Sunday!" (even though that was about a month ago)




• Addison has been having issues sleeping in her own bed so we have put her elmo couch in our bedroom and tell her that if she wants to sleep with mom and dad that she has to sleep on the couch and she no longer gets to use her pacifier. Her pacifier has to stay in her room. I am hoping that is a big enough incentive to get her to stay in her room, so far it is not working. She always starts in her room and around 4 will come into our room.
  

I think we are going to take the kids to their very first movie in the theater on Sunday. Cars 2 here we come!

Addison

Crazy how quickly summer passes. Cannot believe that it is July 4th already! Addison is having a fabulous summer. Here is an update of what she is up to.

• She will go up to little kids and say "Hi, I am Addison" and then wait for them to introduce themselves. She always ends up calling the girls "Sara" no matter what they tell her (Cailou's friend)
  


• When she wants the attention of a group of people, kids or adults, she will say "Hey kids, look at me"
  


• Potty is still going well. She will leak in her undies and then run up to me and say "Mommy potty!"
  


• Yeserday she went potty and requested a sucker. I told her that I didn't know where they were. She said "They are around somewhere"
  


• She goes off the diving board by herself. (caught by an adult)
  


• She loves go under the water during ring around the rosie.
  


• She will stay on the stairs at the pool and play ring around the rosie all by herself. She stays under the water for about 5 seconds! (Future swimmer?!?)
  


• She loves princesses! It is fun to watch her play with them and see how they interact with each other.



• When asked about where the baby is, she will say "Under Mommy's belly!" She has also started coming up to my tummy and saying "Hi baby Gus"
  


• she went fishing for the first time last weekend with her own princess pole!
