What I Love about you!!

These are the little things I love about my little girl!

I love the way you sleep with your hand by your head.
I love the way you fake cry when you want your pap pap
I love listening to you smack whether its with your pap pap, while your eating, or on your thumb (which I try to discourage)
I love how much you love bath time.
I love how when you get hungry you expect food immediately with NO warning.
I love how much Chaser loves you and the fact that when he barks you don't even flinch.
I love how cute you are in all your little outfits.
I love how you already twirl your hair.
I love watching you play with your tongue and watching you blow bubbles.
I love watching you sleep because you make the best faces.
I love that your favorite place to sleep is on my chest!
I love the fact that you are such a trooper... and you can go with me anywhere because you are such a good baby..
I love your hair (even though it sticks straight up at times.)
I love that you don't mind your bows... (Please keep it that way.)
I love how when you do tummy time you are already scooting around.
I love how when you are sleepy you want my hand over your face.
I love how you hold on to my shirt when you are going to sleep.
I love when you grab my finger.
I love your long fingers and toes. (that's one of the first comments everyone makes about you)
I love how you wrinkle your forehead like your daddy.
I love how you steal the show no matter where we are.
Your daddy loves how much you embarress me when you "pass gas" in public and it is SO loud!! :)
I love how you have started rubbing your face on my chest when you are sleepy.
I love how Chaser checks on you when you are wimpering.
I love how you suck on our nose when you get hungry.  Those are the best kisses!
I love the little rolls you are starting to get under your neck and on your arms and legs.
I love the fact that in the afternoons you love to go outside and just sit with me your daddy and Chaser.

Basically.... You are the most perfect baby and my whole world now revolves around you and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!  God has truley blessed us!

We Love you Addyson Jewel Gatlin!!!!

New Adventures

The past week and a half has been no different than the previous weeks.  We had some visitors last week that included Pops and Grammy, Aunt Barbara, Grandmother, Uncle Ray, and Trav.  Thanks for coming you guys we enjoyed the visit!!

We went to church for the first time on July 17, 2011.  Addy stole the show as normal!!!

Some of Addy's accomplishments over the past two weeks include

   Finding and playing with her tongue.
   We moved up to size 1 diapers.
   Her clothes are starting to fit better and aren't hanging off of her.
   In the past two days she has started blowing bubbles.
  We started a tad of rice cereal in her bottles on Friday night. 
  She also started looking at you when you talk to her...And started looking at her rattles!
I am continually amazed at how fast she is growing.  It is going by way to fast!  I love her more and more with each passing day.

Nanny

We lost a very special lady in our lives this past week.  On July 11 Nanny (Sherry Ann Jorns) which is one of Addy's great grandmothers became her guardian angel.  Nanny will be truly missed and was greatly loved!!  We love you very very much Nanny!

1Month Already & Addy's first Holiday

Our sweet sweet baby girl turned one month old today!!! Time has flown by so quickly!

Addyson gets cuter by the hour! She has found her tongue this week and continually plays with it.  She still loves her pap pap.  And is doing great on our nightly routine.  I didn't give her a bath Saturday night because it was late when we got home and that was a huge mistake!  She kept me up until 3:30 Sunday morning.

I left her for the first time Saturday with my mom and that was extremely hard!

Happy Birthday America!!! Thanks to all the soldiers who have fought and are still fighting for our freedom!! God Bless you guys!
