2 Month Birthday Hat...

We had a mini birthday/Easter celebration yesterday morning. We got Addi Kate all dressed up in her Easter outfit and had a little photo shoot in her 2 month birthday hat.

Sweet angel! 

We get tickled every time we put her in this chair because she KNOWS it's picture time and gives us a big grin :)


Addi also had her 2 month Well Visit today and here are her stats:

Weight:  12 pounds 10 ounces (Birth weight: 8 pounds 1 ounce, 1 month: 10 pounds 6 ounces )
Height:  23 inches (Birth height: 20 inches, 1 month:  21 3/4 inches)

She is in the 75th percentile for both...our girl LIKES to eat :)


Again, Happy 2 Month Birthday sweetheart...Mommy and Daddy love you more than the world!

Happy Birthday Addison: 2 months

Addison,

Today is March 30, 2013 and you are two months old. You have been such a joy this last month and your Daddy and I are head over heels in love with you. Your personality has come alive this month. You smile and coo when we talk to you and your eyes can follow our every move.


We have your two month Well Visit on Monday, so I'll have to update this post with your measurements. We can tell that you've gotten a little bigger since last month...so we are curious to see how much you've grown.


We have taken you out a lot this month. So far you've visited Bonefish with your great grandparents, Comachee Cove Marina where your Daddy works, The Conch House for lunch with family, the Soccer Field to watch your big cousin, Target with Mommy, D-ma's house for lunch, Ponderville for an over-night stay, Vero Beach to visit friends, to the mall to meet the Easter Bunny, flower shopping with Mommy and Jilly, and you've even taken a stroll on the beach with Mommy and Daddy. You are SUCH a happy little girl and have enjoyed these little outings.


Some of our favorite times with you are in the morning when you wake up...you are definitely a morning person because you smile and smile and smile when you wake up. We've also enjoyed giving you baths. You absolutely LOVE the water and you don't even mind when we get your entire face and head wet. Pretty soon we'll be taking you swimming!!! Daddy has introduced you to Old McDonald's Farm and you are mesmerized by the song (or Daddy's singing abilities) :) Mommy sings Jesus Loves Me at night before bed and it puts you to sleep every single time.


Although you are only two months old, we've started letting you watch the Baby Signing videos and we've been signing some of the easy words to you...Mommy, Daddy, more, eat, milk, dog, and I love you. We think signing will help you communicate with us before you are ready to start talking.


Mommy will be going back to work in a week and we've found the PERFECT person to watch you...your older cousin Litsa. She is smart, talented, creative, a good Christian girl, and most importantly, she loves YOU! Although we are SO sad that I can't stay home with you everyday, we feel so blessed that she will be taking care of you while we are away working.


It's hard to imagine life before you, sweet girl. You are our EVERYTHING! 

We love you more than the world Addison Kate!

Happy Two Month Birthday!

The MamaRoo...

My parents gave Addi Kate the MamaRoo for Christmas this year. She was too small to ride in it when we brought her home from the hospital, but now that she's almost 2 months old, we decided to get it out and give it a try.



 Let's just say this girl LOVES the Mamaroo!!!

Addi Kate Meets the Easter Bunny...

We took Addi Kate to meet the Easter Bunny today. I think I was a little more excited about the visit than she was :) I was ironing her dress at almost midnight last night and could hardly sleep just thinking about how much fun it would be today.

Addi wasn't too thrilled with the Easter Bunny, but in all fairness, we did wake her up from her morning nap to meet him...

  She started to get a little fussy...which is why one of the pictures has her paci in her mouth :)

But after we got home and let her finish her nap, she was ready to pose in her pretty little Easter smocked dress...
The dress is a little big on her, but I think she is still the sweetest little girl ever!

We can't wait to celebrate our first Easter as a family of three. I'ts going to be one special holiday.

You Make Us Smile...

Addison Kate, 

 You make us smile from ear to ear on a daily basis. Words cannot express the joy you bring into our lives. But it's become evident that you not only make Mommy and Daddy smile, but everyone that you come in contact with. Here are just a FEW of the people that you've made smile lately...


This is Mommy's friend/co-worker, Mrs. Tammy. 


This is one of Mommy's coworker/friends' daughter, Miss Sophie.


Your great grandparents came to visit you a few weeks ago and they couldn't get enough of you. 


You went to your big cousin, Mikey's, first soccer game. He was so glad you came to watch him score some goals!

And this is probably one of my favorite pictures...
Pops loves you so much sweet girl! And by the look of YOUR smile, you love him too!

You are such a blessing, sweet angel. And you definitely make us ALL smile.

Bunnies Galore!

It seemed as if we had a theme this week at our house...BUNNIES!

I love holidays and have accumulated quite a few outfits for Addi Kate for each season. And of course, Easter is no exception. 

This little girl lights up our life! She has one sweet and silly personality. She can go from serious to hilarious in the blink of an eye :)

A few months ago, I found this adorable crocheted hat with bunny ears and asked Aunt Lisha if she could make one for Addi. Well she did!!!

I  could NOT stop laughing when I put the hat on Addi...she sat completely still and was probably thinking that her Momma had lost her mind :) But I think she makes the cutest Easter Bunny, don't you?

Addi received a few packages this past week from her Great Uncle Jeff and her Great Grandmother Memaw. My dad traveled back to Texas to pick up a few things for their home-away-from-home here in Florida and brought back some sweet gifts for our girl. 


Uncle Jeff and Andre sent her this adorable Easter Bunny...I think Addi Kate liked him too, after all, he is a PINK bunny :)

 And Memaw sent her these bunny ears...
 Can you tell how good she's gotten at flirting with the camera?!? 

 We seriously are amazed at how alert Addison has gotten over the past week. She has started sleeping more at night (6 to 7 hours) and is spending more time awake during the day...which means more time to cuddle, play, and laugh with Mommy and Daddy.


You can tell in this picture how focused she is. Addi is able to follow us with her eyes and watches our every move. 

And isn't her little onesie adorable?? My friend Mary Kate created it for Addi BEFORE she was even born...and I love it!


Talk about personality!!!

You can see by this post that it was Bunnies Galore at the Knight home. But we can't wait until Holy Week...we have SO much to be thankful for this Easter.

We are SO lucky!

Here are a few pictures of Addi Kate in all her St. Patrick's Day green...

 I know this bow is SO over the top, but I just had to put it on her :) I have a collection of bows that I purchased when I found out we were having a girl and they are really all too big for Addi right now, but I just couldn't resist. 


This little grin kills be every.single.time!

  Isn't she just Miss Personality?!?!?



Sleeping Beauty!
We are definitely head over heels in love with our precious angel...we can't believe just how lucky we are!
