Sadie Beth is lots of fun!

...so much fun that I have been a total slacker when it comes to posting on a regular basis. I have lots to put up from Christmas, but I thought I'd do an "interim" post with some pictures from the last month or so. Sadie Beth is 3 months old now...14 week actually. She has changed so much over the last month, her sweet personality showing more each day. I guess we should label the next few pictures, "Sadie Beth chilling out..."

Hanging out one Sunday before church. Sunday mornings are usually an adventure for us...we can't ever make it to church on time. It seems that Sadie Beth thinks it's the perfect time for messes. :)
Trying to wake up from naptime...aww...:)
Big smiles from the swaddled baby! We are slowly trying to move away from using the SwaddleMe blanket. It has been great to help Sadie Beth to sleep, but now she doesn't like it as much and tries to fight it sometimes. Right now she sleeps with one arm in and one arm out. Occasionally she will nap with both arms out, but they aren't usually good naps.

We still wake Sadie Beth up at 10:30 to feed her. She's always really cute because rarely does she wake up, but sleeps through the entire feeding. I don't care for this picture of me, but she is adorable...a little buddha baby.


Another buddha baby pose!
I walked out of the room for a minute and this is how she was when I retured. It didn't seem to bother her at all, which I thought was funny.
I loved this little outfit. Now she has outgrown it...amazing how fast that happens. We've put away almost all the 0-3 mos. outfits.
Here is Sadie Beth in her first pair of blue jeans that my friend Erica got for her. She acts like she's not real sure what to think about them when she wears them.
We get so many smiles from her...I love it! I try endlessly to capture them on camera. Sometimes I have more success than others. We have so many pictures of the same thing from where I am trying to get smiles. David says I have to erase some of them!
Her first spa treatment! Not really...just kidding. She has had some cradle cap and I read online the olive oil helped. So, here she is with her head smothered with olive oil. She looked at me like she thought I was crazy...though for awhile she did that during every bath. Now she loves them.
Daddy time...he sure loves his girl. And I think the feeling is mutual! Sadie Beth's new trick is that she has figured out how to scoot off her body when I lay her down on it like this. She gets a kick out of it. I will walk out of the room and she will be laying on the floor when I get back with a huge smile like, "Look what I can do!"
She's starting to get into toys a little bit more. It's fun to watch her check them out.
Hopefully more will come very soon. I have so much I would like to put up, but don't ever take the time to do it. I'm very impressed with those who have multiple children and post regularly.

Great pictures! It's cool to see how much her face has matured over the last 3 months - she's cute! Oh yea, I also make Jodee delete a significant number of pictures from our camera too...our second child is going to feel so neglected :)

She is so cute! It looks like she is doing very well. We missed you the other night, hopefully we can all make the next get-together. :)
