Favorite Sadie Pics 6 weeks to 12 weeks old

Sadie is sleeping through the night!

I forgot to mention that Sadie has been sleeping through the night! She goes to bed around 8:30/9:00 and sleeps until 6:15am, when we wake her up for daycare! This morning since it's Saturday, I didn't wake her up and she slept until 6:30am! Yay!!! Mommy is getting more sleep :) :) :) We have such a perfect little baby. We are so lucky! Since she was 2 months old she was sleeping from 8:30/9:00 until anywhere between 3-5:00am... which is really good for 2 months old. But now at 3 months old she is sleeping 9+ hours. Way to go Sadie! I think having a bedtime routine has helped. She gets a bath every night, then a lotion massage and jammies on, lights on low, and bottle. Sometimes we play lullaby music too and read books.

Mommy back to work & Sadie at daycare :(

Well, it's official... I'm back to work! And our little Sadie is at daycare. Yesterday was one of the hardest.days.ever. I'm sure she will be in good hands, but it was just so sad to leave her. ...Do they know she is our most treasured gift? Do they know that she means the world to us? Do they know that she is our everything? :) I hope so!

I cried when I left. And I missed her sooooooo much throughout the day. I'm sure I thought about her once every second ;) When we picked her up they said that she did great!!! She had a typical day... took lots of cat-naps, ate good, pooped, you know... the usual. They said they liked how vocal she is and that she smiled a lot. Everyone loves her. ...what's not to love?! :) Last night she was exhausted, she slept a lot and wasn't in the mood to play. I am hoping this is just temporary from the transition. This morning was easier... each day it will get better I'm sure.

I wish I didn't have to work, so sad to think daycare will get to see her more than I will. Working for the weekends has a whole new meaning to me!!! Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!

Sadie is 12 weeks old!

Wow, time has flown since I last blogged. Sadie is now 12 weeks old and today is my last day of maternity leave... boo! Sadie has changed so much since I last wrote. She smiles all the time now and likes to babble/coo and we love to listen to her voice! She enjoys playing peekaboo and patticake too. She loves to listen to us sing songs like "you are my sunshine" and "twinkle twinkle little star" and she is starting to like books. Sadie really likes when we make funny faces and sounds. She shrieks when she is excited about something which is super cute. Her uncle Jared got her to laugh this past weekend but Jason and I haven't been able to do that yet. She has a ticklish rib on her right side that Jared found. She'll be giggling soon I'm sure... :) She is getting so big! I am in awe of how much she has changed/grown in 12 short weeks. Where is my little baby? She is starting to sit in her bumbo chair and put weight on her feet. She almost weighs 12 pounds and is about to grow out of her 3 month clothing. And tomorrow back to work I go... and Sadie goes to daycare. I am dreading tomorrow...
