Your mum says she likes to roll your little fingers in between hers.  “They’re sooo little”, she says.

You must like to roll her finger around in yours, because her fingers are so big.  🙂

Addison holds Mamma Cat's finger

Your mum’s friends Jackie and Laura stopped by to visit you today.

Here’s a picture of you and Jackie.

"See how strong I am? I am the Amazing Amazonian Addison!"

Your mum’s breast pump works great.  We got the right nipple for the bottom (slow flow) and presto!  A little bottle of milk.  You mum says, “this stuff is gold”.  Referring to the milk.  Your Poppy and other family and friends can feed you too now.

It’s fun.   You look up with your big blue eyes and make cute noises as you feed.

"How long do I have to sit here?!"

You and your mum spent the night with your Aunt Rachael and I.  While your mum put on her makeup and did her hair, Aunt Rachael cooed and sang to you.  This is what you mum tells me.  I was at the store.  Geez, I hope your Aunt Rachael sang softly….she does have a crackle for a laugh.  🙂

Perhaps you will grow up to help your Aunt Rachael sing well.  Perhaps you two will become a capella hip hop artists!

I don't usually like babies. But I like this one.

Today your mum and Grandma Sherry took you to the Health department.  They examined you as part of the process in giving your mum a breast pump.  You are now 9#6oz. They said you are longer and weigh more than the average baby.

You’re going to be an Amazon Woman!  Amazing Baby Addison.

A famous and radical feminist writes, “Within a culture possesed by the myth of feminine evil, the naming, describing, and theorizing about good and evil has constituted a maze/haze of deception.  The journey of women becoming is breaking through this maze–springing into free space, which is an a-mazing process.”

OK, this is a little heavy…but it’s true in that we live in a culture of mazes.  You will be a-mazing.  Breaking free of the mazes with your super intelligence, happiness, graciousness, and all around beauty!
