A big day...

I am at daycare right now. Mommy dropped me off this morning for a trial run. When she left, I smiled and laughed with the other babies so she wouldn't be so sad leaving me there. I didn't see a tear, but she might have waited until she got in the car. I think I'm going to like making new friends here, and plus my buddies Riley and Olivia are here which is great! 

What I love about you at three months...

Dear Sadie, my sweet girl, you are three months old today, and here's what I love about you...

  • That you are going to bed earlier and sleeping later
  • That you are slowly getting yourself into a daily routine
  • You aren't peeing on us anymore when we change your diaper
  • How you spit your paci out half way then suck it back in
  • You are starting to realize we want to comfort you when you're upset
  • You like to hold and touch my fingers
  • How you smack your lips together after I give you mylicon
  • How you wrap your arm around my neck when I hold you
  • You can go to bed on your own, without "props"
  • You cry less and smile more
  • How happy you are on your changing table
  • That you are on the verge of a giggle, I just know it
  • How your personality shines through more and more everyday
  • I can make you smile all the time
  • Taking you on walks around the neighborhood
  • The super long hairs on your head, that must have started growing at conception
  • When you "talk" to me with your coos
  • How content you can be at times, just looking around
  • The noise you make when you smile, that isn't quite a giggle
  • Your smiles, and how I can't get enough of them
  • Your sleepers that have little animals on the footies
  • That you like watching TV, just like me
  • That you like watching football on TV, just like daddy
  • You smile at me when I come to get you out of your crib in the morning
  • The way you smell after a bath
  • How you put your arms to your side when you're ready to be swaddled
  • The way you smile & stretch in the mornings when I've unswaddled you
  • That you have found your thumb and love to suck on it
  • Seeing you take naps on daddy's chest
  • That you are such a good baby
  • That you were such a good girl at your trial run at daycare You know that I can comfort you
  • How you can reach out and grab things

Love, your mommy

What a day!

Halloween was so much fun! First, mom dressed me up in the cutest little pink puppy costume. Then, we went and visited daddy and the guys at the fire station, then mamaw (uncle Brandon and aunt Betsy also stopped by), and last, Susie and Eric's house where I got to meet Michelle, Hayley and Ethan. It was a long day and by the end of it, this little puppy was pooped! Can't wait for next year so I can actually go trick or treating and eat some candy!

Boo!

I'm getting excited about Halloween this weekend! I'm either going to be a pink puppy or a pink skeleton girl... Stay tuned!

Look at the roll tide pumpkin mom made... Pretty neat!
