Mommy at 28 Weeks Pregnant!

Here we are at 7 months! It has flown by! I will be here before you know it! I have been moving around in the womb like crazy!! Kicking and punching mom every chance i get! I weigh about 2.5lbs! The other night i had the hiccups and dad was snoring pretty loud, so needless to say mom didn't get much sleep!

Mom is taking break from school so her and dad have more time to prepare for my arrival. Mom has been feeling pretty good, not too uncomfortable yet. Although her ankles turned into "kankles" after a very long day on her feet for the first time last week and her belly button is starting to "pop" out!! Gross!! TMI??

Aunt Rima and Aunt Kathy are planning a baby shower...so mom and dad better hurry up and register for all the things they will need to take good care of me!! My room is coming along, all that is left is the decorative touches! Mom and Dad are going to start child birthing classes so they know what to do to get me out of this joint!


I better get back to growing!
Love,
Addy


Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Addy!

Greetings from the underbelly! I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Mom, Dad and I celebrated Christmas this year with Ron, Kathy, Colleen, Laura, and Jordan. We had a ton of fun playing Catch Phrase, opening presents, and eating!! Thanks everyone for all the gifts you sent us and we missed seeing our family in Ohio and West Palm Beach.


Here is one of my favorite presents! An ornament from Kathy and Ron that says "Baby on the Way" (ME)!






Here are some more gifts that Mommy and Daddy got for little ol' ME!

Thanks Dyan and Dan for the Missiouri onsies, i will make sure i wear them when we come to visit you! And i can use all my other travel accessories you sent too!







Thanks Grandma Lee and Grandpa Jack for my really cute sleepers and all the diaper wipes! I love the duckies on the feet!





































Mommy, Daddy, and I got to spend New Year's in LONDON!! This was my 4th time on a plane!! I am quite the traveler!! Daddy had to work there so we went a week early and were typical tourist and spent time with mommy and daddy's friends: John and Ericka and their two kids; Adrian (2 and a half) and Marco (5 mo.).

Mommy, Daddy, John, and Ericka on New Year's Eve in London!

We had a wild adventure trying to get back home after the subway closed unexpectedly! I learned that John is really from Jamaica that night and not afraid of the London Police!! :)
