Addison Rose

Hello, it has been a little while and as always life is never dull around our house.  For the past 5 months or so I have been meaning to do a post dedicated to each of our children to give you a little bit of insight into their personalities.  Tonight I have decided if I never start this process or I will never finish so here it goes...

Addison Rose the first of our trio to see the bright lights of this amazing world is certainly our little diva.  Up until a few weeks ago I had nicknamed her ice maiden, as it was hard work to get her to crack a smile, but thankfully she is a little grinner now.  Her father is completely smitten and that love is returned and her face lights up every time he enters the room.  She watches her big brother with joy and somewhat uncertainty as to what he will do next.

She is still our smallest little pixie weighing in 2 kilos less than the boys, at about 7 kilos at nearly 8 months corrected age.  Addison was the last one to roll but once the boys started she was quick to get going, however she is the first one to sit unaided and has been doing so for about a week now.  Addison doesn't tend to move unless required and once she has reached what she is after will stay there or roll back on to her back.  Her most favourite toy at the moment is this funny little soft toy pig that grunts and her little face lights up the moment she sees it.

When Addison is hungry and you pop her down to heat up her bottle she cracks it, big time!  Her little bottom lip sticks out and then she cries.  A lot.... She is still not a real fan of solids especially the savoury or meaty foods, but give her sweeter foods like banana ,or other fruits, or custard and she gets stroppy if you are too slow. 

Addison's dresses take up all the hanging space in their shared wardrobe and then some, thanks to some lovely friends who have passed on some clothes.  So we all have fun dressing her up...  She still has a gummy smile and her hair is so fluffy that it stands up.  She loves a good cuddle and would be a perfect singleton baby, actually they would all be easy babies on their own.  Addie loves a good cuddle and has recently discovered the joys of jewellery whether you are wearing a watch, earrings or a necklace she loves it all and will spend a long time examining it. 

So I will leave that there and that is what makes Addison Rose unique...
