Our first christmas as a new family

Dearest Addison,

You are now 1 month old! It's amazing watching you grow and see you learning how to hold your head up and smile. It makes my heart melt every time you look at me =). You are such a good girl, you started sleeping through the night only after a couple of weeks from coming home from the hospital.

We celebrated your first christmas with us this past Tuesday. We almost didnt have a christmas this year because it was so hectic with our moving to a new apartment and your arrival. But your grandparents came through and sent you a whole bunch of christmas gifts... so we just had to get a tree to decorate. We bought our first fake tree this year... lol. It's actually really nice, although it just doesnt smell as good as a real tree. I promise next year when your older, we'll have a real tree to put up. And, you'll even be old enough to help us decorate it!

Anyhow, here are some pictures our family from this holiday season.

I love you Addy!

Love,
Daddy

Welcome home!

Dearest Addison,

Welcome home my dear! You arrived on November 27, 2007 at 11:02 am. Weighing in at 6 pounds 2 ounces, you were a tiny little thing but your cry more than made up for it! It's now been almost 3 weeks, I'm now back at work and today is the first day that your mom is home alone with you. Don't give her too much trouble ok? I've already gotten a call from her telling me about your hissyfit this morning. Anyhow, I've compiled some pictures of the first 2 and a half weeks of your life with us in a slideshow. I hope you enjoy it in the future as much as I enjoyed making it today.

Welcome to our little family... my sweet.

With Love,
Dad
