Our little blessing

Addison Morgan arrived July 26, 2011 at 4:11pm. My labor wasn't quite what I expected, but she is worth every pain and discomfort I went through.

I've been in love with this little girl since I found out we found out were having her, but that love was multiplied hearing her first cry and seeing her for the first time. My heart is so full when I look at her and I feel so blessed to have brought her in to the world.

She just turned 7 weeks old this past Tuesday, and all the parents who told me to treasure every moment, are so right! Time is flying by! I teared up when she first out-grew a pair of pjs.

Brian and I love to hold her and sing to her - I hope she loves music as much as we do!

Here's a quick run-down of Addison at 7 weeks:

*She loves to sit in her swing and sway

*She coos in her sleep (and snores!)

*She loves to move her hands (perhaps she'll lead music one day!)

*She smiles all the time-ever since she was born! And no, it's not gas.... ; )

Confirmed news!

On March 17th, we had our anatomy scan, aka ultrasound to confirm our little one's gender. As most of you know, I've felt all along we were having a girl, but we wanted and needed to make sure. So, yes....it's a GIRL!

She's waving "Hi" or.... (giving us the finger here haha) : )

Pregnant!

Most of you already know, but we are expecting! Our little one is due November 4, 2010 and we are pretty excited. The first few weeks were a little difficult because I was worried about miscarrying. But after two doctors appointments, things seem to be alright. (of course I still worry - it's an inherited trait, after all). And finally! - the all-afternoon and evening, aka "morning" sickness has started to subside. Whew!!
My cravings seem to include anything with cheese like cheese pizza from Costco, grilled cheese sandwiches, and macaroni and cheese. And then at times, I just want fruit and vegetables - not chocolate anymore (and I don't miss it!).
I will post ultrasound pictures when they actually start to look like a baby. Right now, Baby Foust looks like a grape. Next appointment April 12th!
