Day 21 of 31

Since it's the 21st I thought I would use today to blog about the 21 things about Addy. So here goes:

1. Addy spent the first four and a half months in the hospital.
2. Addy was born with an imperforate anus and chronic lung disease.
3. Addy found her "Forever Family" on August 6, 2007.
4. Addy wakes up in the morning, peeks over her crib and immediately starts laughing and smiling!
5. Addy LOVES Avery. She adores Jarika and Cooper, but Avery is definitely a favorite right now.
6. Addy LOVES to watch the Food Network with Daddy, especially Down Home with the Neeley's.
7. Addy throws everything, EVERYTHING!
8. Addy will put food in her mouth now but still isn't swallowing.
9. Addy loves the wind, she claps and claps when we go outside and she can't stop laughing when it's windy.
10. Addy sleeps in many positions but almost always one leg is bent.
11. Addy can sign "more, bath, dog, mommy, and all done" when she really feels it's necessary.
12. Addy does not think communication is necessary very much.
13. Addy loves to look at us over her non-existent glasses.

15. Addy has the cutest, tiniest little ears and nose!
16. Addy does not like to bear weight on her legs at all and acts like PT is pure torture.
17. Addy loves to turn around on her little booty, it's too cute!
18. Addy has a palmar crease on her left hand and both pinkies are crooked!
19. Addy's eyes always change color, some day they are green and some days they are brown.
20. Addy loves her bath and playing in water and thinks it's hilarious when I am soaked after bath time!
21. Addy is a gift from God and no family could love her more!
