Ian and Judiet

Current Mood: Ecstatic

Right, so this has been coming for a while now and eventually we have got internet at home again and im able to upload some pics. So here are the quick things that you may need to know:

1.) Addison has got 2 teeth. Here is a picture

2.) She wants to stand most of the time so we got her a cool bouncy playring.

3.) She is eating cereal for breakfast now - within a week it will be at night as well. Veggies are next

4.) She is almost crawling - needs a few more co-ords and she will be there.

5.) Judiet and I celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary with a nice picnic.

That is just a brief run-down of what’s been happening, here is a list of galleries with more photos in them.

Ill try remember to upload some videos tomorrow, but no promises

I hardly ever browse iafrica.com as a news source, but was looking around today and saw that they have a featured article about inflation still being high and what struck me about this article was the picture assosciated with it.

Its different you have to say…

Here are some quick videos of our daughter. Starting with the best video ever, please have your sound turned on!

This is just a quick update to say that things are going quite well at the moment. Judiet and Addison are back home and settling in nicely. I must say that being at home is VERY different from being in the hospital but I dont have any complaints. Judiet is still in some pain, but verything biologically is doing what its supposed to so things are good on that front.

Addison has slight Jaundice which has required 3 blood tests in as many days which is more disturbing for Judiet than Addison and its not over yet, tomorrow there will be another one which will hopefully show that the billirubin levels are dropping and she wont have to have phototheraphy. The only bad thing about tomorrows tests is that they require that she not be breast fed for the next 24 hours, so its going to be bottles until then.

I have uploaded some new galleries of photos:

• Addison Day 1
• Addison Day 2
• Addison Day 3
• Addison Day 4

More details about everything to come soon, as well as some videos which are awesome!
