Both daddy and Addelynn were taking a nap last night after Mark came home from work. I wanted to get out of the house so I convinced the two of them to come with me while running errands. It was not really a positive experience for us as Addelynn decided to scream repeatedly even though her nuk was in place. If one of us would reach back and touch her, then she would stop. It's a good thing Mimi will be riding back with us for Thanksgiving to be that loving touch. I'm sure Mimi won't be able to keep her hands off anyways! Just kidding mom!
I put Addelynn on the scale today and my eyes almost popped out when it read 10 pounds. I figured that could not be right, so I picked her up and figured I would try later. As I picked her up she spit up a large quanitity of milk on my shirt, so that had to be the extra ounces the scale measured. Later tonight I put her on the scale and she was around 9 pounds, 11 ounces. That is still pretty impressive considering she was "only" 9 pounds last Friday. It's so hard to believe that our baby was 6 weeks old yesterday.
Mark leaves tomorrow for a business trip to Arizona, so Addelynn and I are planning on going up north to stay with Steve, Liz, and Will at Liz's parents and grandparents. Steve is going up there to hunt so we are just tagging along so we won't be lonely here. Mark will come home on Wednesday night. I'll have to post how that goes when we return.
