I think i need to put that heading in giant capital letters. Perhaps I shall.
ADDIE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!
Sleeping through the night in baby world is considered 11 pm - 5 am, and she slept from about 10:30 until 5:15. I hope that this will become a trend. Of course this didn't mean I got 7 hours of sleep. I still woke up throughout the night to check on her sometimes tickling her foot or resting my hand on her chest to make sure she's okay.
Didi is going to miss the night time feedings as this is her chance to get some attention from me too - and sometimes more cat food.

Addie Slept Through the Night
Greats, Grands and One Less Kidney
We just returned from Tucson where we bid adieu to Grandpa Mit's right kidney. The surgery was successful and Mit is recovering quickly. He will hopefully return home on Sunday. Addie was there to wish him well when they wheeled him away to pre-op and was there again to greet him in his recovery room.
While a kidney had to be sacrificed, the good news is that Addie had the opportunity to meet her Grandma Janne, Great Grandma Vede, and Great Aunt Marcia for the first time (and say hello to Great Aunt Karen again). Grandma Janne graciously babysat her allowing Cap and I to go out to dinner together. While we were out, Addie took a few naps on Grandma's shoulder and I'm not sure who enjoyed it more.
Our trip was too short, so we'll have to be back soon. I am sure that Addie will grow up loving the desert - and of course her greats and grands.

Addie's Boyz
Welcome William Sawyer Pierce born July 21st to Reid Pierce-Armstrong and Scott Armstrong and John Tayloe Emery II born July 23rd to Catherine and Tayloe Emery!
Addie can't wait to meet baby Sawyer over labor day when we go visit the Pierce-Armstrong clan and attend Sawyer's baptism.
Addie got to meet Baby Tayloe at the hospital when he was just 1 day old. She greeted him with shrieks and screams. I couldn't believe that Addie had once been that small and it has only been 2 months. Newborns are truly amazing and miraculous.

Happy Birthday Addie! (2 months)
Addie is 2 months old today. We celebrated with vaccinations - nothing like 4 shots in the thigh to say, "Isn't it great to be alive!" She is now 10 lbs 11 oz and 23.5 in. which is about 50th percentile for weight and 90th for height. She's all set for a career as America's next super model.
She is so much fun to play with now that she can interact. She smiles coquettishly and enjoys watching her mobile – and ceiling fans. She also enjoys being sung to. Her favorites right now include “I’m a Little Teapot” and “Hunk of Tin” and when in an adventurous mood “Blister in the Sun” by the Violent Femmes.
Happy Birthday my sweet little baby.

Greetings!
. . . and welcome to the blog dedicated to sharing the news about little Addie since so many of her avid admirers can't be with her every day. Cap took the short video (above) a week or so ago. Can you believe Addie is that cute every day?! Yup. EVERY DAY!
Hugs and kisses, Sarah
