1, 2, 3, 4. 4 months old! Ah ah ah.

Addie turned 4 months old last Monday! She had a check-up and weighed in at a whopping 15 lbs (75% for her weight in her age group) and 26 inches (90% for her height in her age group!). Who knew?

She also rolled over by herself for the first time, yesterday! Watch out world, here comes mobile Addie....

Look, I can stand!...with a little assistance...


Most of the photos we took had her hands in her mouth, one or both, it doesn't matter, they just taste SOOOO good.


She's our gigglepie :)


Steve and his brother Doug have baby photos with a blanket over their head, so we re-created it here with the newest Silvestro.


Perhaps Addie will be a ballet dancer?


Laughing at her silly ol' daddy


Addie's sooo happy that the weather is warming up and we can spend more time outside!



Addie has been grabbing her toes for a month now, but it still makes for diaper changing fun.



"You, mini-man, takin' on the jellies. You've got serious thrill issues, dude. Awesome."


Contemplating the solution to world peace. Or...whirled peas.


Whatchu lookin' at??? Spitting up is cool, oKAY?


Hugs with mommy.


Cuddles with Daddy.

Life is good, friends, life is really good :)

Addie on the Road

First Grandma S came to visit us, and then we took a weekend road trip that felt like we were gone for a week because we hit so many places! Addie got a lot of lovin' and we had a lot of fun. Here are some of the highlights!

The Grams loves up Adeloo.


Addie--the new poster-child for an anti-landmine campaign:


Piggy back ride!

After the g-ma visit, we headed up to NJ. Ads shows how happy she is to be in Hamilton by flashing a cute lil' grin.


Papi putting Addie through some calisthenics. Today she was SO close to rolling from back to tummy...coincidence? I think not.


I took a side trip to the Jersey shore for my friend Beth's bridal shower. Here's Beth with her sister Meghan and Meghan's adorable daughter, Abby.


Ad-zooks!

After spending time with the g-parents, we headed north to visit Uncle Doug and Aunt Alli.


We loved visiting them! Addie slept SO well at their house, we may just have to ship her up there so she can learn how to sleep through the night.


On our way back to DC, we stopped in PA to visit Jodi, Chris and the now 7.5 month old Shannon. Shannon is SO grown up now--she can sit on her own and does this cool lunge-for-objects action and is eating solids. We can't imagine Addie doing all that, but it'll only be a few short months before we're posting about such cool things.

Jodi and I like playing "baby switch" the minute we walk in the door.


The daddy's playing with the babies.


Phew, all that traveling tired the little one out!


(And us, too. Off to bed!)
