Addison's 14-Month Update

Well, it's been another month and Addison is changing so much that I don't even know where to begin. Once she started walking, there was no stopping her! She can't get enough of walking...across the room, across the furniture, on top of toys, everywhere! She's adjusting well to her new house and loves to get around. She's becoming a pro at going up stairs, but still has a problem coming down. She wants to walk down them facing forwards and hasn't figured out yet that she can get very hurt if she does that...and almost did!

We were outside one afternoon bagging leaves while we were letting Addison just be a kid...run around all bundled up without anyone saying no. That is until she starting climbing up the deck stairs. She got up one stair and I told her to get down. I looked away for a little while only to look back and saw that she was up four stairs. I yelled at her to get down...without remembering that she doesn't know how to come down stairs correctly...and tumble, tumble, boom! She fell down the stairs and smacked her head on the wrought-iron bench at the bottom. I immediately ran over and picked up my baby, crying without any noise coming out, so I knew it was bad. I held her so tight and I didn't want to look at the damage I caused. Adam ran over, looked at her head, and told me that she was fine, but that she needed to go inside. We brought her in, cleaned up the dirty scratch and bump on her head, and brought her back outside. She was such a trooper!

Addison isn't only getting around everywhere, but she's talking up a storm! I can't believe how much she's picking up from one day to the next. She now says:
"thank you"
"there you go" (though it sounds more like "taco")
"hi puppy"
"hi blankie"
"hi mommy"
"hi daddy"
"milk" (and demands it often)
"up" (which means up and down)
most animal noises, she'll repeat if you ask her to
"a book" (she always wants to read!)
"bye bye"
"cracker"
"cookie"
"Elmo" (she loves Elmo , even though she doesn't watch Sesame Street)

Here are a few pictures since the last time I posted so you can see how big she's getting. Don't forget to check out our picture site often! I've included the link to the web album at the bottom. That's all for now!

Addison: 12 - 18 Months

1-Year Addison Update

Two months is my new record for not updating this blog! It's amazing how little time I have in a day between work, a toddler, and selling our house. I have a lot of updating to do, so here it goes...

Since the last time I posted:
- Addison got a new tooth on 9/11 bringing her total count up to 8
- She got a cold on her birthday that led to an asthma attack on 9/19
- She turned ONE and took her first steps on 9/18!!!
- She had a fabulous 1st Birthday party on 9/20
- She was prescribed daily asthma medication on 9/22 ...so far, so good!
- She officially started walking full-time on 10/3
- She got another cold, but no asthma attack to speak of yet on 10/12
- We sold our house in Blaine and close on our current house and the one in Bloomington on 10/21!!! We officially move in to the new house on 10/22!!!

Stats from her 12-month checkup:

Weight: 21lbs, 13.5oz (63rd percentile)

Height: 2' 7" (95th percentile)

Head Circumference: 18.27in (85th percentile)

Needless to say, we are one busy family right now! Addison is all over the place and getting into everything...especially those things we don't want her to get in to. We still can't believe our little sweetheart is already ONE! Time flies by so fast! I know everyone says it, but it seems like only yesterday she came into our lives! Now she's walking, talking, and being demanding just like her mommy! I'm definitely anxious to have another one at some point just like her, but we're still enjoying the one we have now :) Check out her 11 and 12 month photo albums below as well as the album from her 1st Birthday party.

I promise to update this blog again soon once we're in our new house. We're anxious to get in there and start some new home projects! I'll make sure to take lots of pictures and we look forward to having guests soon!

Addison: 12 Months

Addison's 1st Birthday Party

11 Months Old and a Trip to the Hospital

I can't believe only one more month and Addison will be 1-year old! Babies grow up way too fast! Since the last time I posted, which was forever ago it seems like, Addison has been through quite a lot! Our little pumpkin is now walking along anything she can grab on to, crawling faster than anyone can catch her, and getting into everything she's not supposed to :) She went on her first Fuchs Family trip to Spirit Lake (check out the album link below), she now has 7 teeth, and this week she stood all by herself for about 5 seconds! Before you know it, she'll be walking all over!!!

On a bad note, if you can believe it, two days ago she had her second "asthma attack". The doctors still aren't willing to label her as having asthma just because she's so young, but it was scary again nonetheless. I was home alone with her all week while Adam was at a tournament in Moorhead, so I was fortunate enough to experience what a single mom must go through... Since my daycare was on vacation Monday and Tuesday and then Addison got sick Wednesday, I had 24-hours of Addison fun for 3 days straight!

So, back to the attack... on Wednesday morning, I knew she had a cold, but she woke up screaming and crying. I couldn't figure out what was wrong! I decided to keep her home for the day and keep an eye on her until I could figure out what was wrong with her. While she was waiting to eat her breakfast, I could hear her wheezing again from across the room. I thought to myself "this isn't good...not again!" I immediately got her started on her nebulizer treatment to try to get her breathing under control. Unfortunately, 3 nebulizer treatments and about 8 hours later, she still had labored breathing and was breathing quite fast. I decided to call her doctor to consult with one of her nurses as to what I should do next. They decided it would be best if I brought Addison in to the ER. What treat that was..........I HATE THE ER! After 5 hours in the ER, Addison and I finally got to go home after she had 2 more nebulizer treatments (5 total that day) and a shot of prednisone. She's doing much better now, but I still need to have a discussion with her doctor to find out what we can do from a "maintenance" perspective to prevent any more attacks in the future. I'll keep you posted!

Here are the links to her 9-month, 10-month, and cabin trip albums. Enjoy!

Family Cabin Trip 2009

Colds and Asthma

Well, we had quite the scare with Addison last Thursday! At 4am (rather than 7:30am), she woke up with a cold. I'm thinking "Great...she hasn't had a cold in 3 weeks, she must be overdue!" As a good mom that doesn't bring her child to daycare to spread germs, I kept her home with me that day. At about 3pm, I noticed that she was breathing heavy and starting to wheeze. I called Adam after an hour or so and told him I wanted to bring her in to get checked. I was worried the wheezing may have been the start of pneumonia or RSV.

So, off Adam and I went with Miss Addison to urgent care. When we got there, the nurse was concerned with the wheezing as her breathing could be heard from across the room. She took her pulse ox and found that it was in the low 90's. She immediately started her on a nebulizer treatment to help calm her breathing. The doctor then met with us and decided she needed a chest x-ray to confirm whether or not we were looking at pneumonia or some other kind of lung infection. The x-rays came back clear, so he determined that she was having an asthma attack. After a second nebulizer treatment, the doctor met with us again to discuss with us the risks of asthma and what to look for in the future. They gave us a nebulizer machine to bring home with us as well as a prescription for prednisone with the hopes that her bronchial tubes would become less contracted an allow her to breathe better.

When we got home, we fed her and tried to give her the prednisone. To our dismay, she ended up puking EVERYWHERE! The quantity of the dosage he gave us was absolutely ridiculous. He expected us to give her 15mL of medicine at one time, which is the equivalent of 3 syringes full...a little much if you ask me. The next morning, I made an appointment with her regular doctor to lower the quantity. I had every hope that a smaller amount would be easier on the baby...I was VERY wrong!!! I gave her a bottle and got no more than .25mL in her mouth before she gagged and puked EVERYWHERE again! I quickly called the doctor to inform her that prednisone orally was probably not going to work. All the while, Addison still wasn't breathing well even with the nebulizer treatments, so I knew she needed the medicine. The doctor agreed that I could bring her back in to get a prednisone injection that would begin working immediately. Sure enough, after 3 trips to the doctor in less than 24 hours, the prednisone injection worked! YIPPEE!!! Addison made a complete 180 within an hour after the injection.

Who knows if this bout with asthma is just the beginning or if she'll never have an attack again. I guess we'll see...especially the next time she gets a cold or allergy season hits! There's no way of knowing for sure what her triggers are, but you can bet we'll have the nebulizer on standby if we ever catch her wheezing again!

9-Month Update and Videos

Well, it's been a while again so I have a lot of updating to do. Addison is changing so much that I'm realizing that her days as a baby didn't and aren't going to last very long. Before you know it she'll be walking and talking and never look back. Makes me kind of sad when I think about it. I can barely remember her days as a "pod" where she couldn't make eye contact, couldn't smile, couldn't coo...those days didn't last very long at all!

Here are some of the changes that have happened since the last time I posted:
- She starting clapping on June 20th
- She went in a lake for the first time on June 21st
- She started pulling herself up to stand on June 28th
- She got her 4th tooth (top left) on June 30th
- She starting waving on July 1st
- She started waving and saying "bah bah" (bye bye) on July 3rd
- She saw her first fireworks on July 4th (duh...)
- She started saying "doe" (don't) on July 6th
- She started shaking her head "no" on July 10th
- She started saying "I did it" on July 11th

Addison also celebrated her first 4th of July a couple weeks ago! It was so much fun lighting off fireworks and watching her eyes light up in amazement! I can't wait until she gets older so she can really enjoy the 4th of July!

We also took her to the 3M Championship last weekend at the TPC in Blaine and come to find out, 9-month old babies are not very quiet when people are trying to golf. We definitely got some nasty looks from people, but seriously, it could've been much worse. We had tons of fun watching Lee Trevino and Chi Chi Rodriguez as we do every year. Can't wait until the PGA Championship in August and then the 3M Championship again next year!

Here are a few pics and videos since the last time I posted. She's changing so fast, so make sure to check back often!

Guess who's 9 months old?!?

I can't believe how fast time flies! My little baby is growing up so fast!!! Addison had a big week! She starting saying "up" which is super cute since she enunciates it so well, she went swimming in Meredith's mother-in-law's pool, she got her 3rd tooth (upper-right), and she took a couple headers while crawling causing her to bruise both cheekbones.

I brought her to the doctor for her 9-month checkup and the doctor was very pleased with her progress...she also knows that she's not abused since cheek bruises are common in babies learning to crawl, just like shin bruises are common when babies learn to walk. Thank goodness! Addison has to be about the most loved baby in the world, so I'm glad the doctor recognizes that. She did tell me we should start "disciplining" her though so she gets used to the word "no". She could tell that Addison runs the roost and may need some boundaries. I thought that was super funny! She also told me that we can start feeding her some real solids now like canned peas or carrots, chopped up canned fruit, bananas, bread, egg whites, etc. I'm super excited to see how she takes to "real" food instead of just bottles, baby food, and rice cereal all the time! Here are her 9-month stats:

Weight: 19lbs, 15.5oz (71st percentile)
Height: 29in (92nd percentile)
Head Circumference: 18in (91st percentile)

Here's a video of her making the most ridiculous noise on the face of the earth! It was too funny not to capture on video to use against her when she gets older :) I'm pretty sure she's possessed when she does this...that's the only explanation I can think of. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Lastly, here's a link to her 8-month web album. I just love looking back at all the previous months to see how much she's grown!

Baby Addison: 8 Months

Crawling Baby!

It's official! After several weeks working with Addison on crawling, she's finally done it! It's incredible to watch her accomplish such a major milestone! Now it looks like we're going to have to start child proofing since we definitely don't live in child-friendly home...no railing, floor lamps, cords, you know...

Here's a few pictures and a couple videos of our little pumpkin. What a big girl she is! They grow up way too fast if you ask me!

What beautiful blue eyes she has!
Thinking about crawling...
She'll put just about anything in her mouth...

Addison's first crawl (6/8/09)

Getting better after only one day!

Teething, Moms, and Raspberries

I feel like a broken record, but sorry it's been so long since I've provided an update on Addison. The Loch family is doing great! Our little one is now 8 months old and growing every day! Addison is now saying "da-da", "ba-ba", "pa-pa" (as in pup-pup for the two dogs), "na-na", and..........drumroll please.........."ma-ma"!!!!! As of yesterday, she is actually saying ma-ma pretty consistently! Definitely exciting for her mama!

Addison also had her first bout with teething. When her first two bottom teeth came in, she barely had any response whatsoever. Now that her top two front teeth are getting ready to come in, she was absolutely inconsolable last Thursday. I ended up staying up with her for an hour or so hoping to comfort her through her pain. A little Orajel and some Tylenol seemed to do the trick. I'll have to remember that when they actually punch through...not looking forward to that!

She's also so close to crawling it will likely happen within the next few days! I can't wait to see her take her first crawl...assuming she doesn't do it at daycare first :( So many people keep telling me how they had kids or know kids who were walking by her age...to which I want to say "great, but my daughter is going to crawl first". Developmentally, I know how crucial it is that a child learn to crawl before they learn to walk. I welcome crawling with open arms! That just gives us time to get our house "child-proofed" :) We are definitely not ready for a mobile child yet...pretty sad, huh?!?

Please keep Addison in your thoughts on Monday, June 1st. It's nothing serious at this point, but we have a preventative appointment with a Pediatric Opthamologist to have her checked for congenital glaucoma. Since Adam was born with glaucoma, we figured it was better safe than sorry. They told me the appointment will last 2-4 hours as we meet with a variety of doctors and specialists confirming that she either does or doesn't have glaucoma. Her eyes will be dialated and she will go through a host of tests that can see better into the eye than a typical doctor can.

As I believe I posted before, we are also in the process of trying to sell our house. You can't even imagine how hard it is to live in a "staged" house with 2 dogs and an infant. Everyday, I find myself cleaning the house and doing the same routine of dusting and vacuuming in the event that someone wants to see the house. So far, we've had 5 showing and an open house with good feedback overall. The only problem is we are charging more for our house than other houses in our neighborhood because we have literally updated the ENTIRE house...new kitchen, new bathrooms, master bedroom suite, deck, fence, driveway...you name it, we've probably done it. Buyers don't understand that though...and until we find one who does, we probably won't be moving any time soon...

Before I end this post, here are a few more pictures, videos, and links to albums. Check back often for more updates!

Addison Update and Bathtime Video

It's been a while again...sorry about that! Things have been pretty crazy in our lives lately. On April 17th, my grandpa was admitted to the hospital in Rochester with pneumonia following his open-heart surgery (less than two weeks prior). He was in congestive heart failure during the day, having difficulty breathing, and was rushed to the hospital almost immediately. After what looked like he was getting better, he took an extreme turn for the worst on April 21st when he "coded" twice. The doctors had to shock him, do compressions, and intubate him. My dad and his siblings were asked to come to the hospital and gather while the doctors discussed their options and the probability of my grandpa's recovery. The outlook was grim. They gave my grandpa a slim chance of survival, and thus, we prepared for the worst.

Let me tell you now that I truly believe in the power of prayer! On April 22nd, the doctors were set to remove the breathing tube from my Grandpa and the family was on pins and needles. However, when my aunt Mary Kay went in to check on him that morning, he was awake, alert, and waving at her as she entered the room. Not the greeting she was expecting! They extubated him as planned and amazingly, he's been on the road to recovery ever since! He was discharged from the hospital this past week and was admitted into the Lake City hospital to continue his rehabilitation before going home. He is such a fighter and I feel so blessed that he's been doing so well! After several trips back and forth to Rochester over the course of a week, Addison and I went to visit him in the hospital with my parents last Saturday. Here's a picture from our visit.

She is just the cutest!

On a lighter note, Addison also had her first experience in the swimming pool on April 18th! She did so good and absolutely loved the water! I suppose it helped that the pool water was extremely warm. We probably swam for 2.5 hours that morning before heading down to Rochester to visit Great-Grandpa. She had a great time playing with her new friend, Elle, who's only one week older than Addison. Elle's dad is our Loan Officer...that's right...we've been preapproved for a mortgage and are working on getting our house ready to put on the market!!! Ideally, we'd like to move to Bloomington, but it may end up that we'll stay in Blaine and get more house for our money...I guess we'll see once we actually get an offer on our house :) Anyway, here are a few pictures from her first swim!

She loved her lilypad! The "bath squirters" we brought were a big hit!Addison & Mama Addison & Daddy

Lastly, I just love sharing videos of our sweet baby. The older she gets, the more she absolutely loves bathtime! I just had to get some video of our little pumpkin splashing it up in the tub! Enjoy!

Easter & First Day at the Park

Hello again loyal blog followers! Thought I would post an update on Addison's first Easter and her first time playing at the park! I can't believe the number of firsts a child has that we take for granted every single day! Just before Easter, it was a beautiful day so we decided to see what Addison thought of the swings and the slide at the park. Not a whole lot of reaction yet, but at least she didn't cry :) Here's a couple pics from her experience.

Addison swinging...weeeeeee Going down the slide with daddy

Then came Easter... Quite the hectic weekend with family plans, but Addison was such a good baby! We tried to stick to her schedule as much as we could, but definitely didn't want her to miss out on some important firsts. My sister Erin and her boyfriend Nat were in town, so on Friday, Addison and I went to meet them at the airport with my mom. Then on Saturday, we went over to my sister Meredith's house for brunch and an Easter egg hunt. Afterwards, we headed down to my parent's house for some dinner and appetizers with the Van't Huls (my cousins). We had a very nice visit and enjoyed watching all the kids play...6 under the age of 5...let's just say it wasn't very quiet there :) Then on Sunday, we went to mass with my family and back to my parent's house for lunch. We visited for a while and said our goodbyes to Erin and Nat before heading over to Adam's parent's house for dinner. I must say, it was quite the jam packed weekend! We had a wonderful time and look forward to the next major holiday full of family time! Here are a few pictures from the weekend as well as a link to the full web album.

Addison Update and Videos

Hello again everyone! Just thought I'd update the blog with some more super cute pictures of Addison as well as a couple videos. Addison is changing every day, getting super good at eating solids, and is so good at sitting up on her own! It's like someone flipped a switch and all the sudden, she's an expert! It's such an amazing process watching a child grow up!

Such a good sitter! Addison just loves to eat EVERYTHING!

Last week, my family was also dealt a big blow when we found out that my Grandpa had to have open heart surgery to have his aortic valve replaced as well as bypass surgery. He did so well and is such a fighter that he went home after only 4 days!!! He's amazing and we love him so much! I'm so happy everything went well! The day he came home, my parents, Adam, Addison, and I when to Lake City to welcome him home. We had such a wonderful day visiting with my grandparents and some of my aunts and uncles! It was great to spend some quality time with my family! Here's a couple pictures from our visit.

Last but not least, here are a couple silly videos of my baby. One is of Miss Addison trying to take a nap at Great-Grandma Gloria's house. There wasn't much sleeping going on :) The other video is of our ticklish little munchkin. I just love her laughter! It's contagious! Enjoy!!!

6 Months, Baby Milestones, Cancun, and a Trip to the Emergency Room!

Wow! A lot has happened since the last time I posted...amazingly enough! Addison is still doing great with solids. She's made it through all the stage 1 fruits and I tried to introduce her first veggies this week, but I'll get to that later. She's now starting to sit on her own like a tripod, not for very long, but it's a huge step for her! She's also rolling over several times in a row...looks like we're going to need to get a railing up and a gate for the stairs! She also got her second tooth while Adam and I were on vacation! She's quite the biter now with her new little chompers :)

We had her 6-month appointment Tuesday of this week and everything looked great! The doctor was very impressed with her, as usual! She's a tall, skinny baby with a big head just like her mama :) Here are her 6-month stats, her 6-month picture, and a link to her full 5-month web album:

Weight: 17lbs, 7oz (75th percentile)
Height: 27.5in (>97th percentile)
Head Circumference: 17.5in (90th percentile)

Baby Addison: 5 Months

I've been working from home all week and spending time with Addison since her daycare lady is on vacation. Thank goodness because this week has been a doozy! As I said earlier, I started to introduce peas as of Monday. She loved them the first night, but was pretty iffy with them ever since.... On Tuesday, I got some sort of bug that had me laid up sick all day. Whether montezuma's revenge or the flu, it was not a very fun day. Thank you to Adam for working from home that day so I could get some rest! Then yesterday, Addison and I had an appointment at Babies R Us to get her 6-month pictures taken, so we had to get up a bit early. After showering, I had Addison sitting in her boppy chair and I heard her sneeze. When I looked over, she was absolutely covered head-to-toe in puke!!! Looking cute as ever with puke all over her face, I did my best to get her ready for her pictures so we could head on our way to Babies R Us.

On our way to her pictures, I called Adam to tell him that his daughter puked for the first time ever! What I thought was puke before was nothing compared to what I saw yesterday! While on the phone, I started to hear her dry-heaving in the back seat, so I let Adam go so I could pull over and check on her. Sure enough, she puked again! What in the world was going on with my little pumpkin?!? She seemed happy enough, so I continued on our way to her pics. Let me tell you, Babies R Us got some pretty awesome pictures of Addison! No matter how sick she was, she didn't let it show and looked absolutely adorable! (see the thumbnails of her pictures below)

After getting her pictures taken, Addison and I headed to my work for a visit and then headed home. Once again, her evening solids feeding with the peas didn't go very well. She didn't seem interested at all...so I gave up! Addison hung out for a little while in her Bumbo seat while Adam and I ate dinner. All the sudden, her face got really red...anyone who has or has babysat a child knows what that look means...get ready to change a diaper! Sure enough, blow out central! Although this time, it was more diarrhea than anything else...not a good sign after the day she had. After dinner, Addison and I headed to "The Wedding Chapel" to pick out my "best man" dress for Andy's wedding in October. She seemed to do fine, so I wasn't worried at all.

When we got home, it was time to get ready for bed and have her "nigh nigh" bottle. She got through about 3 ounces and then wanted to take a break. If only I had known what would happen next. While burping an coddling her close, it happened.............she puked for what seemed like forever and what seemed like gallons all over herself, all over me, all over the chair, and all over the floor. YUCK! No more messing around, it was time to call the doctor and head to the emergency room. The doctor called back and agreed. It was best to bring her in and make sure she wasn't getting dehydrated. So off to the ER we went. Let me tell you, the crazies definitely come out at night! We were probably the most normal people there :)

After tell 5 people the same thing over and over again about the kind of day Addison had, the doctor gave us some pedialyte to give her to see if she would keep it down. The doctor wasn't willing to diagnose what caused her awful vomitting and diarrhea, but it could have been a bug, the veggies, or a sudden aversion to her formula. There's really no way of knowing. By the way...she weighed a pound less last night than she did on Tuesday at her doctor appointment... Anyway, before sending us on our way, the doctor asked us to give her pedialyte for the next 24 hours and then slowly reintroduce her bottle and solids. Thank God our little one was ok nonetheless! After going to Cub Foods, we got home at about 12:30am...well past Miss Addison's bedtime. Just to be safe, our pumpkin slept in our room in her pack-n-play so we could keep an eye on her. She slept for about 6 hours before wanting more pedialyte and going back to bed. So far today, she's been doing really well and peeing a ton! A good sign for a baby who barely peed at all yesterday!

Now, on to a brighter topic! Last Wednesday, Adam and headed off to Cancun, Mexico with our friend Pat for 5 days of relaxing on the beach without a care in the world! This was our first trip away together without the baby and also a celebration of the two of us being together for 10 years!!! How fast time flies!!! After mechanical failures on two different planes (an oil leak and a cracked windshield), we got to Cancun 7-hours late and the fun began! We spent every day relaxing by the pool and beach, drinking some frosty beverages, and eating some amazing food! The highlight had to have been my 50-minute massage in a hut on the beach on the third day! The lowlight had to have been Adam getting second-degree burns on one of his hands that he apparently missed the sunblock on for an entire day... We checked on Addison at least twice a day to confirm that she was being a dream for everyone who was watching her. I say "everyone" because we had quite the babysitting schedule while we were gone.

Marissa stayed at our house the night before we left since we were leaving early in the morning and dropped her off at daycare on Wednesday morning. My mom picked her up on Wednesday evening and she and my dad stayed at our house that night. Then my mom dropped her off at daycare on Thursday, whereby Marissa then picked her up and stayed at our house Thursday night. Then, Marissa dropped her off at daycare Friday morning and my mom picked her up and brought her back to Bloomington for the night. Then, Saturday morning, my mom dropped off Miss Addison at Adam's parent's house where she stayed until we got home Sunday evening. Where were the dogs you may ask?!? They stayed with Adam's parent's the whole time...that was the only constant the entire trip :) Thank you to everyone for watching Addison and our pups! It was nice to get away, but we missed our princess like crazy and were happy to come home! Here are a couple of pictures from our trip and the link to the entire web album.
