1 Month Pediatric Visit

Addisyn went for her one-month pediatric appointment last week. She now weighs 8 pounds 2 ounces and is 21 inches long (up from 6 pounds 13 ounces and 19 3/4 inches at our last visit). She is in the 25th percentile for weight and the 50th percentile for height. We have added one bottle a day to her feeding schedule (of pumped breast milk) to start preparing her for when Lindy goes back to work. We also discussed Addisyn's diaper preference with the doctor (the Pamper's Swaddlers), who said her girls preferred the Pamper's too :) Lindy had a number of doctors visits the past few weeks with some postpartum health issues. After an outpatient procedure and a series of antibiotics, which will be finished up in about 8 more days, hopefully everything will be okay :) Last week Addisyn met her Great Grandma Neff, her Great Grandpa Cawein, and attended Shannon and Jason's wedding reception snuggled up in her Baby Bjorn. Addisyn is growing and changing every day. She smiles at us, enjoys her swing, and enjoys her bouncer (because it has flashing lights and sounds). Addisyn also is trying to crawl! We put her on the table at the doctor's office and Dr. Colyer could not believe how much movement Addisyn is capable of. She compared her to a 3-month old. Addisyn pushes up on her arms and looks around the room. She kicks her feet and scoots herself around her crib, but she can't quite lift up her body. Addisyn will be taking her first trip to the beach August 16th, so we will take lots of pictures and post again when we get back!

Love,

Lindy, Brian, Addisyn, and Bear
