Where has the time gone?

We've seen July 4th, a few more cousins, and survived a week without Daddy! Man, has it been busy!

I screwed up royally on July 4th. I left the rice cereal at home and boy did she let us know that she was NOT happy about it. She screamed all the way from CK to home and then some. I didn't realize how much she really does depend on it.

She stares at everything...so hard you'd think she can stare through it. I'm hoping that makes her smart. :-) She gets excited around certain people now, especially Zoe. Big sister can do almost anything and Sadie loves it!

The last few days have been rough. Aaron went camping for the week in NC. I didn't realize how much I depended on him! I haven't submitted school work, cooked a decent meal, or gone to Wal- Mart all week. :-)

Sadie squeals, laughs, coughs, and sticks her tongue out. She has lots of new hair starting to come in, too. Everyone now has a different opinion about who she looks like. We are trying to absorb as much of her as we can each day.

Sadie Saying "Hi"!

Three months old yesterday... Wow, has the time flown by! Things are pretty good. Sadie teases us all with her lack of consistency. Just when I think we have some sort of schedule...she goes and changes it. I never know when we can eat, grocery shop, go to the bathroom (lol), etc...

She has been 'talking' to us a lot lately. She LOVES to lay on her changing table to talk and squeal. We've learned to lay her there when she's fussy and low and behold....she calms right down.

Overall things are going well. We are looking forward to getting a pool, which should make for some really good Sadie footage. :-)

Yippee!!!

New good habits by Sadie equals happy mom and dad!!!

Sadie has found her thumb, slept through the night, and has stopped crying (for no reason)! It has been a really good week and a half. I feel refreshed now that I've gotten some sleep. I look forward to getting her in the mornings because she now smiles at me! My mom has been promising me that things would get better at 12 weeks. She is 12 weeks tomorrow!

Sadie coos all of the time and actually tries to mimic your sounds. This has been quite a fun change from just staring at us all like we are crazy. Although, I've broken the rules by giving her rice cereal AND sleeping her on her tummy, she is happier and well rested.

Happy 4th of July!
