Addison is growing as we speak. We had our first Pediatric appointment with Dr. Chattra of Pediatric Associates. https://www.mypediatricassociates.com/ He said that Addison is doing great. She weighed in at 6 lbs 14 and 1/2 oz's. We were happy to hear that. We are hoping that she will be back to her birth weight by this week. Dr. Chattra also stated that it is very unusual to see a one week old child smile, which Addison is doing a lot of. He said that smiles are usually associated with children who around one month old. Dr. Chattra also called Addison, "Brilliant". Her proud parents could not agree with him more.
Addison is a very hungry girl. She is wearing her poor mom out. When she is not sleeping she is feeding. This is making day and night unnoticeable for her parents. But that is OK, she is worth it.
We have also found the value in an electric swing. This has proved it's weight in gold. All we need to do is get Addison in a somewhat sleepy state and put her into the swing and Bleezzaaaam, she is asleep for hours! Mom catches up on sleep while dad tries to get a few things done around the house.
Thanks again for all of everyone's help. Uncle Mikey came over yesterday and helped bring Addison's changing table into her room. This has been a long awaited piece of furniture. Our backs are thanking Uncle Mikey as we speak. Also thanks to everyone that has brought food. All of the meals have been fantastic.
