Weighing in at 15lbs, 6oz and a mere 26 1/4 inches long is Addison!! We had our 4 month check up this morning and luckily since school was cancelled because of this excellent weather, I got to tag along with Addison and Daddy to the doctor. Dr. Gill said Miss Addison was just perfect. She's in the 98th percentile for height and 86th percentile for weight. Everything is looking good. We can start rice cereal once a day for 7-10 days and then start some tasty solids after that, she said!
Addison also had her second round of immunization shots. She received one shot in each leg and an oral dose of something. The nurse warned us that the shots do burn going in and Addison got to show off what a set of lungs she has! The shocker among the shots was while she was wailing away, mommy noticed two little white spots on her bottom gum line. Having the nurse double check, yep...we have two little teeth. The haven't broken the surface just yet, but you can definitely make them out! The nurse asked if she'd been running a low grade fever, had a runny nose, or been fussier than normal, but our answer to all these was "Nope!" She said we were definitely lucky so far, then!
At 26in, we better be checking the length on most of our 6 month clothes!! :)

The bad weather worked in your favor, as I'm glad the entire family got to go to the Dr.'s office. Little Addison is rapidly approaching the mark of doubling in weight since birth!
Yeah, Brian was happy too, since Addison had to have shots. We all know how he doesn't like needles! :)
