Enjoying Life.....

So I just wanted to share a few pictures with everyone.  Sadie is such a happy little girl and loves the water, so this is from this past weekend.  She is finally sitting up by herself, we just have to keep an eye on her because she doesn't quite understand that when you lean back you will fall if mom or dad isn't there.

She also thinks that everything that she gets a hold of, is meant for her mouth.  This should be fun when she starts Mother's Day Out in 2 weeks. 

Then this past weekend we tried out our new bikini while hanging out with our friend Madison in the pool.  Daddy and Sadie had a blast splashing around.  When she got going her little legs were kicking away under the starfish.

Well hope everybody is doing well.  Just wanted to post a few pics of our little girl who is growing up way too fast!

The Big 6 Months!!!!

So it has been a while since I have posted and life has been very hectic.  Sadie has decided that she loves tummy time and is scooting and rolling all over the place.  She definitely has become more mobile and independent over the past month.  Sadie talks constantly, although we are not quite sure what she is talking about, but she is extemely excited to share her thoughts with anyone that will listen.

I have been making all of her baby food at home and so far I have not come across any veggies or fruits that Sadie dislikes.  She has a very healthy appetite.

Daddy is feeding her some yummy rice cereal and squash.

We are going to register and start her in a Mother's Day Out program that begins in September.  She will be going to school Monday and Wednesday, which I am really excited about.  It will be nice for her to interact with other babies and have some time away from mommy!

She has started to sit up on her own. It is only for a few seconds and then she kind of leans over, but she is getting it.  I have no fear that she will be sitting up and on the move in no time.  Her ability to scoot and roll amazes me.  It seems no matter where I put her in relation to her toys she is going to get over there to play with them.  It was funny to me that as much as she hated tummy time, she just rolled over one day and decided it was her favorite position. 

She also loves her jumper, thanks Nan!  It is her second favorite place to be.  She cracks herself up jumping around and playing with the lights on the front of the jumper. 

Well she is going to the doctor for her check up and shots on next Tuesday, so I will have some new numbers for her weight and height then. 

Talk to you soon!!!!

4 Months and time is flying by.....

So every month it seems, I get on here and say I am going to do a better job of posting.  Obviously I am failing miserably at being an avid blogger, but I am still going to keep trying to improve.  Sadie definitely eats up most of my free time, but I am loving every minute of the time I spend with her.  I do not remember life before her, that is for sure.

We went for our 4 month check up yesterday.  She is 15lbs and is 25 inches long.  Needless to say she has definitely grown a lot in the past 2 months. We were given our first taste of applesauce today, and I think she wasn't quite sure what to think about it.  Sadie talks constantly, and is so serious about the conversations she is having.  I always get a laugh when I am in another room and I can hear her talking to the animals hanging on the activity center.  She also loves to talk to people on the tv.

This past weekend we went swimming for the first time.  She loved the water and her little legs were working away under the floaty.  After  a day outside in the water, Sadie had a very good night sleep.  We finally wore her out. 

Her favorite place to be is in the bouncer, thank Nan.  She entertains herself with the lights and bounces back and forth while randomly talking to herself.  James was amazed at how long she will stay in the seat without getting fussy.  She gets easily bored with anything else we give her.  While she is not a huge fan of tummy time, still, she does love to stand up.  I am amazed at how strong she is.   Her pediatrician was laughing yesterday saying that she will probably skip crawling and just start walking around.  I can only imagine the things she is going to get into.

As I said I am going to try to update more frequently.  I know that everyone is constantly looking for more pictures of Sadie.  There will definitely be more to come soon...

3 Months Already!!!!

So time has just been flying by and Sadie is more and more amazing everyday.  She is talking her own language and laughs constantly.  She definitely makes our day everytime her little face lights up with her laugh and smile.  Sadie has been sleeping through the night for the past few weeks, which is a huge sigh of relief for us, sleep deprivation is no fun.  She is growing like a weed.  She notices everything around her and has a very concentrated look whenever something crosses her eyes. 

We have been going into work on Mondays and Fridays, so the shop office has become her personal play area. Sadie enjoys Daddy time and it is always interested in whatever James is looking at on the computer. I definitely do not pack light to go into work.  We bring all of her toys and chairs with us to keep her entertained. 

Her neck is getting more and more stable everyday, so it will only be a matter of time before we are moving on to our bigger toys.  Which will be great because she is not a fan on laying down.  She wants to sit up and take it all in. 

This past weekend we took advantage of the beautiful weather and hung out in our backyard. Toby, Daddy and Sadie were enjoying the breeze off of the water. 

Easter

So Sadie did make her first visit to the Easter bunny on Good Friday.  Luckily the photographer was quick because the first picture was the only one she didn't cry in.  When I look at her little face she makes me laugh.  It is as if she is pushing her cheeks out as far as possible.  I felt bad for that poor bunny though, it was really hot. 

Easter Sunday we spent at my grandmother's.  We were finally able to take a decent five generations picture.  Our ages range from 93 yrs old  to 9 weeks old, which is pretty rare.  Sadie was a trooper and was completely mesmerized by Maw Maw Dot.  It was an eventful first Easter and Sadie was definitely exhausted when we got home later that evening.

Time has flown....

I know that I am the biggest slacker when it comes to posting pictures on here! I drive Sadie crazy with the camera in her face but I just never seem to sit down and actually upload them.  Well enough about my slacking....let's talk about Sadie!  She had her 2 month check up and shots last Monday.  She is 11 lbs and 10oz.  Her shots went well, she screamed during the actual shot, but quickly got over it.

 Hanging out with Grammie!!!

 Getting ready for Miss Gabrielle's birthday party!

 Having fun at the house with Momma! Miss Smiley!!!

Everyday I am more amazed at how fast she is growing up.  She is definitely developing her own personality and attitude...lol.  I have been trying for a while to capture her turning over on video, and it finally happened last week.  It takes her a minute but she doesn't give up.  I get so excited when she hits milestones and I can actually catch her doing it.

1 Month Today!!!

So it has been a month!!! I can't believe how time has flown by these past four weeks.  Sadie is getting more and more alert everyday.  She looks at you now when you talk to her and she is developing her own little personality that I am finally getting to understand a little more and more each day. We took our first outing just mommy and Sadie yesterday to Hobby Lobby.  She slept the whole time which was nice because I was nervous on my own.  We are getting into a schedule now and it is great.  We are only getting up once a night which allows for some sleep for mommy! 
Sadie is lifting her head and doing what I like to call baby push-ups during tummy time.  I don't want her to grow up too fast.  Well I hope everyone is doing well and we will keep you all posted on life with Sadie!!!!
