Matching Jammies!

Sadie and Carlie have matching pajama's and I just had to get some pictures of them together in them. My favorite part of the night....clean girls in cute jammies!

Sister's and friends
Sadie takes after her mom....she is fixing Carlie's hair!

Oops!

Last night dad and I went Birthday shopping for Sadie and had Aunt Rachelle watch the girls. When we got home I went to give Carlie a bath and thought to myself...."wow, Carlie is really wet - her diaper is sagging." Well, once I undressed her I realized that her diaper was perfectly dry and that Aunt Rachelle had put one of Sadie's diapers on her. Size 5 versus size 2 -Oops! HAHAHA!

"Quit laughing at me!"
Miss saggy drawers!

What A Blessing!!!

It had to end....maternity leave is over and I returned to work last Monday. I'm trying to work 3 days and longer shifts which means that I don't get home until about midnight on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. I was worried because Carlie wasn't sleeping through the night and I wasn't sure if my body could take the lack of sleep. Well, miracles happen, starting last weekend Carlie has consistently slept through the night - she has been waking up at 7:30 and we try to get her down around 8:00 or 8:30....could we ask for more??? This has been such a blessing. Sadie did the same thing when I returned to work after having her, we definitely have been blessed with incredible girls! Not sure what we did to deserve them!

These were taken when I got home from work last night around 1 am.....so sweet.

Lagoon!

Sadie had her first trip to Lagoon. We left Carlie home with Grandma and just had a night out with Sadie, it was nice to give her our undivided attention again. Every year Nu Skin has their summer party at Lagoon. It is so nice because they rent out the entire park for the night and it is just employees and their family and friends.....no lines and no scary people. HAHA! She had a blast! She would cry after every ride because she didn't want to get off! We spent quite awhile there and then headed home, she was exhausted. I can't wait to take her back next year!

Sadie driving a car.....scary!

The family on the skycoaster!

Sadie's first amusement park ride!

Waiting patiently

Sadie on the train yelling....she wanted everyone to know she was on the train!

2 Month Stats!

Carlie had her 2 month well baby check up on September 22nd. Dr. Later walked in and said, "Well, she looks to be a good eater." That is the truth. She is cute and chunky and we wouldn't have her any other way!

She recently found her voice and will jabber away, mostly when she is sleepy. She is the most smiley baby I've ever seen, every time you look at her she gives you a smile that will melt your heart. To top it off she sleeps through the night most of the time. Occasionally she will wake up once but other than that she sleeps from about 8:00 to 5:00 every night. We have been extremely lucky to have two good natured babies.....we should probably quit while we're ahead!

Here are her stats:

Weight: 12.7 lbs (92 %tile)
Length: 22.1 in (40 %tile)
Head: 15.5 in (68 %tile)

Short and round.....just the way we like them!

Sadie testing out Mom's Shoes

This is the first video post with much room for improvement but it works for now. Already into Mom's shoes although she has been caught in my running shoes. For that matter, if there is a shoe...Sadie's foot will be in it. Guaranteed!

Pictures of Carlie

So Carlie is only 5 weeks old and already neglected. We have pictures of her but not a ton. Sadie however had a million pictures by this age. Now I know why I have no pictures of me as a kid....I'm the youngest. I TOTALLY understand now mom. HAHAHA! I'm going to try and do better but here are a few we did get.

I've caught her 3 times now sucking her thumb. It will be interesting to see if she turns out to be a thumb sucker. The poor thing had mits on her hands for the first few weeks of life because she kept scratching herself.....she may have just been trying to find her thumb!

So Sweet!

Carlie's Two Week Stats.....Late

These are a little late....only 3 weeks.

Head: 14.25 in (54%tile)
Weight: 8.22 lbs (44%tile)
Length: 20.85 in (69%tile)

Personality that packs a punch!

I know everyone brags about their kids...bla...bla...bla but I just have to say that it amazes me each and everyday how much personality Sadie packs. It truly is a blessing to have such a fun and happy girl in the house. She is quite the character who loves to sing and dance even though she sounds a little drunk while singing....hmmm...what is Nat putting in her sippy cup???

Sadie in B & W

It was a pretty hot weekend that kept us inside for the most part but Sunday the weather was much nicer so we decided to venture outside with the little ladies to enjoy the cooler weather. I got the chance to snap some pictures of Sadie and caught this shot. Very serious. For just $.50 a day you can feed this child.
