Hi Guys...

Addy showing off her shirt that shows that she supports the troops and her Uncle Bryan. Hurry home Uncle Bryan, we all miss you!

Well, since the last time that I have written, I'm sure a lot has happened. I just can't remember everything. So I will just try to hit some highlights.... Addysen is now 11 months. We are getting ready for her 1st birthday. I have been busy buying her more stuff than she needs. (well, basically clothes and she NEEDS those.) Addysen has just been a busy little bee. She is just walking all over the place. She thinks that she is pretty big stuff. Right now we are dealing with a double ear infection. It started 2 Tuesday's ago (3/4). I went and picked her up from daycare and the babysitter said that she has some drainage from here ear all day. It was gross. I've never seen this before. So I called the doctor the next day and they said that we should bring her in. Daddy took her to the doctor (for the first time!!! all went well) We got some medication and thought that everything was going just dandy. Well then on the following Wednesday morning, I saw that same drainage again, from the other ear. I called the doctor and she said that the medication must not be fighting this particular bug, so she changed our medication. Well, this medication then gave poor baby Addy tummy troubles (I'll spare you the details). So, we are now on the third medication for these darn ears. All the while you would have no idea that this little girl had an ear infection. We didn't know, obviously for it to get so bad that it perforated.... in both ears. I think now all is going well and she is going to pull though.

Let's see here. Aaron and I are attempting to switch Addysen over to table food. It is going alright. This kid just could careless if she ate. However, sometimes she really likes table food when she can feed herself. We haven't quite figured this out yet. Sometimes she eats like a champ and other times, like tonight, she wanted nothing to do with food at all. We'll get it figured out.

Oh, oh, oh. I have to share this one quick story. Today, Aaron and I were on the couch watching the Illini lose. Addysen was being so good and playing all by herself for the longest time. Well, this is a follow up to the video of Addy feeding her baby. She was sitting on the floor, feeding her baby (which is enough to melt your heart) then she would stop, put the bottle down, pick the baby up and pat it on the back:) Then just repeat this over again over again. How cute is that !!!! I so bad wanted to get a video of this, but as soon as I got up, I knew she would stop.
