Phew. Well, that was fast. April flew by in a whirlwind of new routines and lots of rain. Lots and lots of rain.
As of May 3rd, I've officially been back to work for a month, and I can honestly say, I've never felt better. Yes, it's definitely hard leaving my kiddos and some days are harder than others. However, I feel very much at peace knowing that they're in wonderful hands. It's because of these hands that I get to take on a new career that has reignited a fire inside me that I was worried was gone.
I plan to share more details about what I'm up to professional, but for now, let's just talk all things Sadie (and Lara, of course). This little soul is such a blessing to our chaotic world.
Lara has had a tough, tough weekend. She decided she hates her bed. Like, vehemently hates it. She wants nothing to do with her bed, or really her room in general. Saturday night was filled with lots of tears, and not just Lara's tears. During the knock down battle that ensued with bedtime, she decided to pick up her sound machine and proceeded to bang it over and over again on the inside of her door. All the while, Sadie snoozed away in the room next door.
I know this too shall pass, but when?
Speaking of time passing by, how is this little one quickly approaching half a year in our lives?!?!?!
Sadie June: By The Month
Today, Miss Sadie June is officially 5 months old!
Sadie Weighs .....13 lbs, 13 oz (34th percentile)
Sadie's Height.....24" (21st percentile)
Sadie is Wearing.....I squeeze her into my favorite 3-6 month items, but mostly 6 month and up
Sadie is Sleeping....ON HER TUMMY. Which totally freaked us out in the beginning, but per the doc, because her head control is so strong, we're not to be concerned. Over the past week or so, she's been needing a bottle in the middle of the night (somewhere between 2-4:00 am). We just started doing a little cereal in her bedtime bottle and we're hoping that will do the trick.
Sadie is Eating.....6-7 oz and still eating every 3 hours or so. More big news on the eating front...baby girl is working on solids! We tried peas and surprise surprise, she hated them. And listen, I don't blame her. When it comes to pureed peas, it's like I'm feeling my child her own diarrhea. Otherwise, just a little rice cereal.
Sadie Loves.....being tickled in her little neck rolls. And baths, she loves bath time. She acts so relaxed, and that's a far cry from her sis. She's our little water baby and I can't wait to see her test out the pool this summer!
Sadie Hates....this is always the hardest one for me to answer month after month, because she is literally the most easy going kid. She's had a terrible, I mean terrible (like bleeding) diaper rash and that doesn't even seem to phase her. The only time she really cries is when she's hungry. Or loud noises. She hates anything that surprises her.
