Family Life

Well it's been a week since Sadie came into our lives...already! Time has gone by so fast already. Our little family is doing great! Sadie is healthy and strong. Celeste is continuing to heal, she's really being a trooper through all the pain. Sadie has been to the pediatrician twice now. The first time was on Monday. The doctor said she had been scientifically proven to be perfect. She weighed 7 lbs 4 oz, 8 oz down from her birth weight. She went back today just because the doctor wanted to weigh her again. Today she weighed 7 lbs 7 oz. She's going back up in weight. Let the growing begin, but hopefully not too fast. She's a perfect baby and does everything that babies are supposed to do, including keeping her mommy and daddy up at night. Sorry about the overload of Sadie. Celeste is much better at this blogging thing but she doesn't feel up to it yet, so you're all stuck with me for a little bit longer probably. Once she's healed she'll be back and the posts will be much better. In the meantime, enjoy some new pictures and a couple of videos.

Being discharged from the hospital. I have to admit, I was very excited to go home with my family. Sleeping on a small sofa was not fun.

Sadie's first time in her car seat on the ride home from the hospital. So little!


Sadie's Arizona aunts, Giselle and Anissa.



I definitely got the short end of this stick! Dodger is great, but...really?
We absolutely love little baby feet!

Sleeping Sadie.
Sadie's first time in her swing. It kind of swallows her up.

A little video of awake time with Sadie. Awake time doesn't happen a lot during the day. The night is a different story...

And finally, Sadie's first bath at home with Grandma Brewer. Nothing beats the smell of clean newborn babies!

Nate, it does my heart good to see you being the typical daddy - with Sadie having you wrapped around her finger all ready! And I loved that Dodger is right there in the mix! I wish I could tell you a secret to getting them to sleep at night - but after almost 7 years - Jacee will still come climb in bed with us during the night - but I wouldn't have it any other way! Love you!
