Soccer Game

We went to our friend's son's soccer game this weekend. It was fun, but hot. I am so ready for some cooler weather. Regan is really getting into soccer. She will sometime's ask Matt if he wants to watch soccer, which makes him very happy. And when we were at the game she said.....Mommy, I want to play that.

Regan and I are going through a tough transition. I have not been putting her down for nap's, because if she nap's we can't get her to go to sleep until around 11pm. But she is obviously tired during the day and can get really cranky. We have been having her rest, which helps a little but she is still much crankier than we are used to. I am hoping that this is just a transition, and once she gets used to it she will adjust. Until then, I am praying for patience. On the bright side, she goes to sleep as soon as we put her in her bed now. And she got her treat for listening every day last week.

Addison goes for her physical therapy consultation tomorrow. I am ready to get started. I think it is going to help her get on track. One of my friend's little girls went to speech therapy two times, and she went from me not being able to understand a word she said to speaking clearly. So, I have high hopes for Addison. Especially since I really think it is not that she can't, it seems that it is more that she doesn't want to. I am anxious to see what the Physical Therapist says.

Weekend

We went to New Orleans on Saturday. While Addison took a nap we took Regan to feed the ducks which were hard to find and not very hungry. But she had fun. Then we took her to another park to swing and slide.

Saturday night we stayed out to late, but had a very good time with some friend's at dinner.

ENT

Addison went to see the ENT today for a follow up visit. She said that her ear tubes look really good, and that her pallet looks perfect. As long as there are no issues inbetween, we don't have to go back for another three to four months. Yay!

Addison - 9 months

Addison's Nine Month Well Visit

Addison had her nine month well visit this morning. She has to see a physical therapist, because she is developmentally behind in gross motor skills. He said he doesn't think anything is wrong with her. Especially because while sitting she will bend down to get a toy and play with it. She just won't get herself to sitting. And she should be starting to crawl and pull herself up on furniture and she is not. He said it is better to get started with these things early in case something is wrong. We had to see a physical therapist when she was having trouble with the bottle, and it was a one visit miracle. We are hoping that this will be similar.

In other news..... she is growing really well. Following the curve like she is supposed to.

Here are her stats:

Height: 28 inches (67%)
Weight: 18 lbs. 14 oz. (48%)
Head Circ: 18 3/8 in (98%)

Happy Birthday Matt

Saturday was Matt's Birthday, and I think he had a good one. We went out to dinner on Friday night with a friend and he went to the LSU game on Saturday. We had cake for him yesterday, because he was gone most of the day on Sunday. Regan was very excited to give him his cake and sing happy birthday. She wanted to get him a prince charming cake, but they don't have those (not a lot of demand, I guess) so we settled on a cookie cake. Which is Matt's favorite kind of cake.

Pool

Regan was cleared for public pools, and she has been asking to go to the "big pool" for a while. So! This Sunday we went to our gym's pool for a couple of hours. It was Addison's first time and she was not to sure about it, but Regan had a blast! So much so, that we had a little bit of a meltdown when it was time to go. She even said she wanted to go underwater in order to be able to stay. Something she is already out of the habit of doing.

Regan's First Ballet Class

Regan had her first Ballet Class. It was too cute. They did Tap and Ballet, and were already learning heal together, etc... It brought back memories of when I took as a kid. I think Regan really liked it. I think she especially liked that there was a mirror all along the front wall that she could see herself in.

First Salon Hair Cut

Matt and I took Regan with us to get a haircut this weekend. I wanted him to clean it up. It was the first time she had her hair washed in a sink and the first time shehad product put in her hair. I think I am going to take her every few months. It's a better haircut, but it is hard for her to sit still for that long.
