Life of Addison - Day 4


Today was Addison's first doctor appointment since leaving the hospital. She did fantastic all the way through without fussing one bit. This is a big feat considering the doctor required her to be in her birthday suite the whole time. Even when the doctor asked her what color her stool was she produced one on the spot. While we're on the subject of stools, today also marked the first time Addison pooped on daddy. Although I blame this on mom because she had me take off Addison's diaper to try waking her up for her feeding. As for Addison's wardrobe she wore the one piece that Aunt Juli gave her (the one with poke-dots and "sweet" sewn across the chest.
I'm finding that through this whole experience I am more and more amazed by Kim. She is a wonderful mother and cares deeply for those around her. Seeing her with little Addie touches my heart and is what I always hoped loving my wife would feel like. Being able to spend the first week at home with the two people I love most in this world has been both euphoric and life changing.

  1. My mom told me that Addison arrived and I wanted to stop in and say "Congratulations!" She is so sweet and looks like her mama! It sounds like you are adjusting to parenthood well. As the mama of a 1 year old I can honestly say that your life will never be the same but it's also never been better!

    Keep the pictures coming, she's a cutie!

  2. So glad to see that you started a blog. Addison is so adorable!! Pooping on command; now that is impressive! Being a parent is the most amazing thing ever, although I have to admit, a little scary at times, when you really think about what you are doing. You just can never imagine or explain love like that till you experience it for yourself. You two enjoy your little blessing!
