Home Sweet Home

I wanted to share some pictures of Addison's last few days in the hospital and some from when we got home. We have all enjoyed our first night home and being able to sleep in our own beds! Addison fell asleep around 7:15 and slept until 7am! We went to bed around 9 and I got to sleep in until 9am! YAY! Thank you Aunt Charlotte for watching Addison so mommy could sleep! :) Lord knows I needed it. Addison has napped for 2 hours so far today. Poor baby did not get enough sleep in that hospital! Maybe the sleep will make her bone marrow start working! Just wishful thinking! :) We have an apt tomorrow with the hemotologist to see how her body is responding to the transfusions...I will keep you posted on that visit tomorrow.

On a fun note...Addison can now say her name and show you how old she is! She calls herself Addy and holds up her index finger to show you her age. It is so adorable! Her vocabulary is rapidly expanding. She can say a total of about 25 words that you can clearly understand. She has a hard time pronouncing the letter "f" which tends to sound like "t" when she says it. Other than that she is doing great with words for being almost 15 months old. I think I have a little neat freak on my hands too which only a fellow neat freak such as myself can appreciate! If she sees garabage laying around she takes it straight to the garbage can. If she spills her milk she gets very upset until it is cleaned up and when she takes a toy she usually puts it right back where she finds it. I LOVE IT! I hope this means we won't have a messy teenager room to deal with in a few years!

    yes, lets hope she is a clean freak as she gets older. i can't wait to tell her at 13 that she used to hate mess!

  2. Can you please have Addy call her cousin, Ross? He could care less if there is a mess. And the only thing he puts in the garbage cans are things that DO NOT belong: i.e. his Daddy's socks.
