Happy 4 Months Addy

Addyson had her 4-month check up today, but she turned 4 months on the 10th. She received a clean bill of health and is reaching all of her milestones on time. We also got the go ahead to start her on cereal. So tonight she had her first taste of rice cereal...she was VERY uncertain at first and wasn't quite sure what to do with that "stuff" on her tongue. After a while, she caught on pretty well, but the mess was, well, a BIG mess!! But it was a lot of fun!! We'll try again tomorrow. Anyway, she weighed 16 lbs 14 ozs (97%), 27" tall (100%), and head circumference is 17.5" (99%). Ashleigh at 4 months was 17 lbs 6 ozs (off the chart), 27" tall (off the chart), and head was 16.75". Interesting, huh!?!?! I love comparing them, though, I know they are individuals and similarities will start getting fewer and fewer.

Addy's friend, Jacoby, came over today for a couple of hours while his Mom, Jessica, did some work for us doing data entry. They were talking to each other and it was cracking us up! Here is a photo from their play date:

The rest of the day was rather uneventful. Ashleigh went over to Jessica's house after school to have a play date with Jaydon, her other son. She always has a blast over there and NEVER wants to come home. We have stopped asking her if she's ready to go home because the answer is always a very stern NO. Makes you feel good as a parent, ha!

I lost sleep last night thinking of some clues for "The Lazy Race" we will be hosting. I'm shooting for a mid to late June timeline, that will give us some time to get it all ready. We are sooo excited about this and I think it will be a lot of fun. I hope you all will plan on coming. To make it REAL interesting we are thinking of playing in teams and having an entrance fee of probably $20...please comment on if you think you would pay the $20 in order to play because this part is up in the air. I know there are many gamblers out there (cough, cough, Kevin, cough, cough, Steve, cough, cough) and would pay it in a second with the thought of winning the "big prize". Let us know your thoughts!!

OMG...the new Carrollton Mayor-Elect just said on the local news "we don't want no racial profiling". Nice grammar, Mayor. Geesh!!

That's about all I have tonight. This is a picture of Addy and her Aunt Tracy (Brian's older sister) from last Saturday. Sleep Tight!
