5 months!

This last week, Sadie reached her 5 month birthday.  I cannot believe how big she is, and how much she is growing.  It seems like yesterday, they placed this beautiful bundle in my arms, and I realized that she was mine forever.  Here is a little list of her favorite things:


  1. Oatmeal cereal-She attacks the spoon for every bite
  2. Sleeping in a fluffy blanket-she loves the feel of a soft blanket underneath her while she naps.
  3. Blowing raspberries-Sadie's new trick is blowing raspberries.  She still thinks she can do it and suck on her binkie at the same time. :)
  4. Kicking her legs-we are completely convinced that she will either be a swimmer or a soccer player (something her Grampa Mike would delight in).
  5. Bathtime-Sadie gets really excited at bathtime, and loves playing with her duckie in the tub.
  6. Being nakie-if Sadie could be nakie all the time, she would.  
  7. Her toes-Sadie is always grabbing her toes and trying to eat them.  It was hysterical to watch her realize they were hers.
  8. Her sheepie-Sadie has a sheep pillow that she talks to, laughs at, and tries to eat whenever she plays with him.

We love our little love bug more than we can say.  She's the most beautiful thing I have ever laid eyes on, and I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for bringing her into my life.  She's the happiness in my days, and makes me laugh and smile all the time.  Our family is so much more complete with her in it.  Happy 5 months, my darling little girl!

Longer Update

So, here is a little more info about our adventures in life.  Sadie fell off the growth chart at around 2 months, and didn't make it back on until she was around 3 months old.  Here is a comparison of her size:


She grew so much, I was so proud of her.  She is now back at the 50% where she should be for her age.  We had to stop nursing, which was hard for me, but as long as my darling girl is happy, I'll do whatever it takes.  We have been having so much fun lately, although we don't have many new things that we do.  We go to work each day, and the girls I nanny just LOVE Sadie.  She loves them too, it is fun to see them together.  Here are some pictures of her recently:

Loving her oatmeal cereal.  She thinks she's so big, she's trying to feed herself. 
My super happy beautiful little girl

She usually hates being on her tummy, but has gotten a lot better lately.  She's so big.

Everything goes in her mouth.  She looks like she's attacking the pig.

First time out to dinner.  She loved looking at her daddy's  strawberry lemonade.

She battles that turtle everyday.  She can't  quite get his head in her mouth,
but she sure tries.  Also, this is her first ponytail :)
We love you all!

Rollin Rollin Rollin

So, my darling little girl started rolling yesterday, and I can't believe how big she's getting.  Here is a little video of her rolling.
I will hopefully get up some more videos and pictures later tonight.  I'll try to write about our latest exploits later tonight.

We Love You!
