I know I've mentioned before how much we love having Addison in our family, but I have to mention it again.
WE LOVE ADDISON!
She brings such joy to our house. Molly and Elley can't get enough of her, which can be good and bad. Elley would hold her all day long if I let her. The other day Elley asked if she could hold Addison while I was making dinner and as a joke I said that she could either hold Addison or eat dinner, and if she picked Addison she couldn't have any food for the rest of the night. Well, Elley picked Addison and of course I let her have dinner too!
This is a rare moment, only Molly by Addison. Usually Elley is right next to her as well waiting for the chance to have her all to herself. She was at school this day and Molly was enjoying every bit of Addison she could.
Elley is so gentle with Addison. We have this little kid size rocking chair and it's Elley's favorite chair to rock Addison to sleep. This was such a sweet moment!
I can't believe Addison is now 4 months old! She is perfect in every way....except nighttime sleep. I feel like a zombie. She has always been a little stink about sleep. Molly and Elley did just fine, but Addison...she likes to keep her mom up at night. She had her 4 months check up the other day and her doctor said she is now old enough to sleep for 11 hour stretches. I wish!!! I've tried to let her cry, I've given her her binkie, I wrap her back up and try and rock her, but the only thing that settles her down is to nurse her. Maybe she needs solid food? A little rice cereal before bed? I've given her a formula bottle at night after I've nursed her and that didn't help or make a difference at all. I know part of it is just habit of nursing her back to sleep but after I've tried everything else....I'm just so tired! Looks like we'll be starting her on cereal a little sooner than planned.
At her 4 month check up she was weighed and came in at 11lbs 14ozs. And that was right after I fed her. What a tiny little bug. 10% for weight and 25% for height.
Onto her latest trick.....
Rolling over!
I did it!!!

I can't believe how big the girls are getting! Addison is a doll, we think she looks like Elley! We have our spare room all ready for you to come visit!!!!
She is a cutie! How did you get her rolling at every stage? I love all your girls! Well my poor Haleigh went in at 12.15 the other day! I was so worried! I think she is back to her 14lbs again though.
She is cute-- that picture of her and Elley is very sweet- It makes Elley look BIG!
Okay, Elley rocking Addison?! I die!! So ridiculously sweet and cute. My kids would never give up food for a sibling. :) You have some pretty fantastic girls.
