8 Months Old

Addison turned 8 months old on April 2nd. This exciting milestone was over shadowed by her never ending ear infections. After we thought she was feeling better we realized her fevers returned. Addison had another round of cefdinir and still had now a double ear infection. After a week of the 3rd antibiotics the pediatrian started shot antibiotics. The medicine was the strongest available in a doctor's office. She got 2 shots for 2 days straight. So far it seems to have helped. I am keeping my fingers crossed that my baby girl can get some relief and stop all the appointments.

Addison is a very tiny 15lbs 10oz after losing so much weight last month. She is 26.25inches and her head is still large. She still is not an expert sitter. I think it has something to do with her ear infections through off her balance. She is showing very beginner crawling skills. Hopefully she will crawl in a few months. If not, we may go straight to walking. She loves to play and watch her big sister play. Eating is probably her favorite activity. I haven't found anything Addison does not like. She LOVES things she can feed herself like banana cookies, mum mums, graham crackers, etc. She is out growing her baby food but isn't quiet ready to be fully on table food.

Addison is a HUGE Momma's girl. She keeps an eye on me when I move around the house and she wimpers when I leave the room. It is quite flattering at this point. Hopefully it does not turn into separation anxiety in the future. Of course she loves her Daddy and sister just as much. Overall she is a happy girl and has been the perfect addition to our family.
