First Doctors Visit

Addison had her 2 weeks check up today. She now weighs 8 lbs 5 oz and is 19 3/4 inches. The doctor said she is as healthy as can be. She had to get a heal stick blood test and wasn't very happy about that. Grammy B was there to carry all the baby stuff - who knew you would need at least 2 more hands just to carry the car seat, diaper bag, etc.

July 12th - 8:13am

Addison Mae Tavera was born on Monday July 12th at 8:13am. She weighed 8 lbs 1 oz. After 17 hours of labor she finally graced us with her presence. Today she is one week old - my how time flies. Mama Meg is healing and Addison is trying to get the hang of nursing. Grandma Cindy is helping with all the domestic duties - laundry, cleaning, cooking - while Maegan focuses her time and energy on little Miss Addison. Grammy B will be here soon to help out too. Addison is such a doll and loves her photoshoots already.

40 Weeks and Still Smiling

We are 40 weeks now and still waiting.....

Addison Mae has not made it into this world just yet. We are anxiously awaiting and know that God has planned a healthy delivery very soon- we just don't when exactly that will be. So for now we will be patient and trust in God.

Bitter Sweet Moment - Grand Daddy Dave

As we approach the arrival of our little girl emotions are strong. We are anxious and excited to finally meet our baby after nine months of waiting and prayer for her arrival. As every BIG event in my life, this is another bitter sweet moment. It makes me sad that my dad will not be here to experience this moment in our lives. He would have been such an awesome grandfather. We plan on making sure Addison knows what a wonderful Christian grandfather that she has and plan to keep his story alive and well. This is a picture of me and my dad the day I was born.
