Sadie turned 3 months old last week Tuesday. I can't believe how much she is growing! She is really starting to become a little person with her own unique personality.
She loves taking baths. I think she just likes being naked in general, but the bathtub is the only place she gets to be naked for very long.
Apparently if you don't use the flash in our bathroom, your baby looks like an Oompa Loompa!
I love all her expressions. I don't even remember what she was looking at that was so fascinating, it was just such a cute picture.
Everybody is getting ready for Christmas, even Miller!
Here's the view from our patio door onto the deck the morning of the blizzard. Yes, this was taken BEFORE it continued to dump 16 inches that day.
This is from Sadie's first parade. There was a Christmas parade going by only a short block away from our house, so we bundled up and walked down. She slept through the whole thing, so we just waited until the Big Cart went by and then we went home.
Sadie is really starting to work on sitting. Apparently Dad thinks that riding Miller will help with that!
She's starting to hold herself up pretty well in her Bumbo. At first she could hold her head up, but her body would slouch to the side. She really likes this Santa Claus, too. He's fiber optic so the lights change color.
She can sit pretty well in her Boppy, but usually doesn't really care for it.
Apparently she feels like learning how to crawl already too. Here she's leaning on the foot rest of the couch. She was able to notch her feet in the fold of the cushion, and almost launched herself off the end! Dad was watching her closely though. She's just so cute because she's watching the Packer game here... she really likes watching the TV. I think the 65 inches of light and motion make it pretty eye-catching!
She has also started to suck on her bottom lip which causes her to make very silly faces!
She's starting to respond to her name a little bit, but I think she's still really just responding to our voices. She's always very interested in the camera, so we can usually get her to look right at it when we take her picture.
She has really cut down on her naps... we can usually only get her down for about 30-45 minutes only about 3 times a day. She sleeps best in her swing, but sometimes falls asleep in funny positions...
I moved her hand out of her mouth only to have it end up in her ear.
She and Miller are starting to be better friends. He does really well with her. Sometimes I have to remind him to Stay, but he keeps a close eye on her and makes sure she's doing OK.
Here's her 4 month picture.
Some of her new things... a backpack from Great-grandma for Christmas.
Her bouncy chair that lights up and plays music. She is also reaching and grabbing for things now so she can make it go all on her own. She still doesn't really bounce, but she likes playing with the toys on it.
Her first pair of shoes! Pink Chuck Taylors from Dad. She did NOT enjoy them. They are way too big on her now, so hopefully they will work a little better when she actually starts standing and walking.
