One month (plus some....)

I have started a "one month" post several times and just can't seem to find time to finish it...so before she turns 2 months old I'll give a quick update:
She's incredible! She was 8 lb 6 oz and 20 1/4 inches as of the last appointment. She's growing at what we think is a ridiculous rate, she's finally fitting into all of her newborn clothes and has even worn 0-3 month outfits now! I'm sure before we know it she'll have outgrown all of those...everyone talks about how time flies when it comes to your children's growth and I can already see how true it is...just yesterday she was waking us up every 3 hours at night...oh wait, no that really was just yesterday...
Seriously though, she has changed a lot even in 6 weeks and we are so looking forward to more adventures the older she gets. She is looking more like her Daddy the older she gets (much to his joy although he tries to hide it)...but she is her Mommy's girl and inherited my personality so far. She's a girl who knows what she wants and lets you know it! She LOVES the outdoors and LOVES to move. Some might say she's already a little spoiled because Mommy walks laps with her most days...Granna and Papa (Sadie's parents) started that though, and it's really not her fault, she has two high-energy parents (and high-energy grandparents) who aren't very able to sit still so she was bound to like to move.
She's more entertaining than tv and is definitely Queen of the house most days. Her latest tricks have been "talking" and smiling intentionally...without a doubt the highlight of my day when I can get either of those to happen!
I could go on and on about how much fun we're having with her, but she's so cute and pictures are more fun anyway!

One of the pictures for her announcement....thanks to Granna and Papa for taking them!

Tummy time with Papa

Outdoor time with Granna (Yes...she has them both wrapped around her finger already)


Thank you all again for continued prayers, we are so very blessed. She's healthy, growing, learning, and never ceases to amaze us.
