15 Months!

Addison had her 15 month appt this week and continues grow like a weed! Here are her new stats: 32.75 inches (100th percentile) and 22lbs (35th percentile). She only gained 0.5 lbs in the past 3 months, so the pediatrician recommended encouraging the ice cream! She eats like a little birdie and is contantly in motion now burning off those calories! As you can see in this picture, she has taken a major liking to her pacifier which is affectionately called "bay." We are ready to wean her off of it soon...we heard from the Dr. that people have had success cutting off the silicone part and just giving them the base. Since it doesn't work like it used to, kids don't seem to want it anymore...we shall see! I am dreading this, but it needs to be done!

"BOP"

Adam has officially led Addison down the path of "Pop" vs. "Soda!" We let her try a drink of soda last night and Adam told her that it was pop. Of course she loved it, and now she is walking around the house saying "Bop, bop, bop!" Adam's reasoning is that she will likely grow up in "pop country," so it makes sense to teach her the correct terminology. The word pop left my vocabulary right when we moved to PA as I was teased about it mercilessly at work! Adam has been sticking true to his roots and has always called it pop. Anyway, it seems that Addy will be a bop girl, not a soda girl!
