Happy New Year From Addie!

As is evidenced by this series of smiles, Addie is feeling much better. She's wearing an outfit worn by her Daddy when he was a baby! It was a bit tight on her so this was probably the last chance for her to wear it--Daddy Steve was even more of a peanut--he was only a bit over 4lbs when he was born! According to the docs at the hospital this weekend, Adeline was 75% in her weight and 85% in her height! Even though her virus caused her to lose a bit of weight at the hospital, as you can see by her cheeks, she's not starving ;)

One of her many nicknames is "little bear" and we think this outfit made her look like a cuddly little cub!





Smiling at Steve and Uncle Dan :)


Happy New Year, everyone!

We're going home!

For those who haven't read the previous post or heard the news yet, Addie wasn't feeling well Thursday night after coming home from a wonderful Christmas in NJ. We headed straight to the hospital after discovering she had a fever of 103. Due to her very young age, they had to do a series of invasive tests, including a spinal tap :( and the results of those tests takes 48 hours, so we were admitted to the hospital and she was hooked up to IV antibiotics almost the whole time.

Well friends and family, luckily, the test results we were waiting for came back negative, so we're heading home as soon as they let me check out of this place! They think the fever was caused by a gastro-intestinal infection.

Here are a few pics documenting Addie's first (and hopefully last) hospital stay.

She loves listening to her Daddy singing to her.

The "cast" on her hand is to protect her from ripping out or damaging the IV line. See how blurry it is? She is such an active little fussbudget, that she kept hitting herself in the head and face with this thing! :)

Don't worry, mommy, I'm feeling better and we're going home soon!


Thank you for your well wishes. :) Love you all!
