2 Weeks After Surgery & Doesn't She Have Great Hair!



It's been two weeks since surgery, we'll two weeks and 2 days as I sit and blog this. The picture however; was taken at two weeks exactly :O). The incision looks great and Addison is doing wonderful. We got the OK to take her to church on Sunday and we are excited about that. Although I am sure she has had a wonderful time with her Mommy over the past two weeks stuck in the house she is like her Mommy and big sister and is a social butterfly. She was fussing Monday afternoon when I picked her up and strapped her in her carseat to go to the Dr's. She immediately stopped crying and started smiling. I could see her through the mirror looking at everything as we drove to meet Jason and Peyton.

When we got to the Dr. office she was all smiles. While in the waiting room there was this holy terror of a boy screaming his 3 year old head off! The only time he was quiet was when his Mom gave him a bottle...did I mention he was 3? As he was throwing a hissy fit, arching his back, and smacking the poop out of his Mom while she held him I whispered to Addison, "If you ever act like that Mommy will spank your butt", she started to cry. I know it sounds mean but it was actually quite funny. I gave her a bottle too and she was just fine...heck if a Mom can do it to settle her 3 year old then I can certainly do it for my 7 month old.

We took Peyton to have her ear checked and she was fine. I also snuck Addie in there so the Dr. could see her and listen to her heart as he was the one who found the murmur but due to insurance is no longer her pediatrician :O(. Anywho, he was happy to see her and asked if he could say a prayer for our family right there in the office. We of course gladly accepted his offer and prayed.

She still has her follow up with her cardio on Monday the 9th, and an appointment with her new pediatrician on Wednesday the 11th.

Now for the great hair...

Our girls are total opposite when it comes to their hair and eye color...crazy, I know. I have noticed a lot of red highlight in Addison's hair too. it will be interesting to see how it turns out in another year. Although her hair is much shorter than Peyton's was at this age, and thinner; she still has a great head of hair with body too it! Peyton's was always stick straight...not Addie, she has a funky curl wave like her Mom. (I flat iron my hair ladies and gents).

Check it out, no teasing necessary...
(for the guys out there or the hair impaired girls, teasing is when you "rat" or comb the hair in a special way to make it stand up or more poofy.)

The red highlight may come from Corsetti side. I had auburn highlights and one day I was standing in our front yard and Poppop told mom that I looked liked his father(I was 22). It's great to hear of Addie's continuing progress. Love from the right coast. Mickey

She is such a doll, I love that she always has a little headband on. I wanted to say hello at MOPS today but it was hectic in there. I am so happy that Addison is doing so well, she is such a miracle baby!!
