4 Months, Preschool, Eye Patch, etc...

Well, baby Addie is now 4 months old. She weighed just over 12 pounds (26%) at her well-check and was in the 78% for height. She is doing great. She is a cute little baby and I really enjoy her. She doesn't like me to rock her to sleep though, and I am kind of mad at her for it because I want to rock her to sleep. She also loves her thumb.


She is blowing out spit and making funny sounds.
We got a train table from some friends and the kids have enjoyed playing trains.
They also gave us some tunnels and Bensen won't go in it, but he will throw things into it.
I actually got her to snuggle with me and fall asleep one time, sometimes at church.
I think this was the day she turned 4 months and picture time was not going great :)
Bensen's "tricks" on the train table.
No, no Bensen.



Parker helping Dad mow the lawn with his bubble mower. He got sweaty too.

Watching the neighbor boys jump their bikes over ramps.
More watching.
Watching Saturday morning cartoons while Daniel was gone playing soccer.

No wonder my baby swing doesn't work very well...
Coloring Grandma's birthday cards.
Staucie started her second year of Preschool on September 7th. Her teacher's name is Miss Candy and Staucie thinks she has the best name! Staucie is loving her class this year.

Aaahhh.
Addie is now wearing an eye patch for an hour everyday. She alternates eyes. She will do this for 6 weeks and then see her opthalmalogist again. She has what they call Crossed Eye Fixation. The disorder that she was born with has some fancy name and I forgot it. Starts with an A, I think. Anyway, if she does not show improvement she will be having surgery to fix it.
Bensen was very concerned the first time Addie had to wear her patch. He didn't like it.

I turned 21... or maybe I am older, I forget. The kids love birthdays! But mostly Staucie wanted to know what holiday was coming next. Halloween! Yeah!
Daniel made me a cake. Staucie wanted it pink with sprinkles.
