October 2017

October 2017
Such a long month!  First up was Addison’s 6th birthday!  This little girl was spoiled rotten by family & friends.  We had Addison’s party at a roller rink this year.  My favorite part of the party was the giant cotton candy tower that the kids got to eat.  Most of the adults thought it looked gross, but I thought it was delicious!  The following weekend we went to the pumpkin farm with Nonna & Grandpa because they were still in town from Addy’s birthday.  It was fun bringing Hailey to the pumpkin farm for the first time and although she was happy she seemed pretty unimpressed!  Next up Hailey turned 9 months old!  The poor girl got a nice fever the night before her 9 month birthday and was on the out’s for a day and a half.  She had a cold, cough and high fever and really just wanted to be snuggled with.  Daddy stayed home from work to do just that for the day.  That same weekend, we had our annual Halloween party at the Brearley’s.  Hailey went to my parents because I didn’t want her out and about having just been sick, but Addison went as Mal from the Descendants and had an awesome time.  Justin & I dressed up as Brand & Andy from the Goonies while putting in minimal effort!  We had a great time and the weather was perfect! 
Addison’s 6 year old stats –
            Weight – 52.5 lbs (83%)
            Height – 45.5 inches (54%)
Addy had a great 6 year well appointment.  She was really worried going into it because she knew she had to get a flu shot.  The tears started rolling down her face when I picked her up from school and her nerves went into high gear.  As soon as we walked through the doors at the doctors office she got even more upset and wanted to get the shot over immediately.  Thankfully, once we got into their room, they gave Addy her flu shot ASAP and she was completely fine 10 seconds later!
Hailey’s 9 month stats -
Sleeping – Hailey has great moments and horrible moments!  Of course when she is sick, nights are tougher and longer periods of time are spent being awake.  She is still sleeping in the ‘ol rock and play sleeper but hoping to transition this coming weekend.  We were going to try this past weekend, but of course she got sick!  I’m not going to lie, it’s going to be brutal!
Eating – she still loves eating her puffs and now also her yogurt melts.  She has tried mashed up avocados, bananas, sweet potatoes and carrots.  She still has a hard time with some of these foods, but she’d rather feed herself then be fed her pureed food.  She wants to be independent!
Clothing – she’s still in 9 month clothes but she’s so long!  She also wears some 12 month clothes.  12 month tops are a little long on her arms but 12 month pants & jammies are perfect.
Stats –
Weight – 20 lbs 6 oz (82%)
            Height – 29 inches (92%)
            Head – 44.5 inches (60%)
Loves – We have a crawler!  Her first official day of crawling was Sunday, October 22nd!  It was so exciting to watch!  She loves her new found independence and being a little more mobile.  She loves “bee-bopping” as Addy calls it when she hears music.  She loves to clap her hands, shake her head yes & no and high five everyone.

Hates – she hates being put back to bed after her night time bottle.  She gives Justin & I a run for our money!  We are so tired and would just like her to be a better sleeper!
