a little bit of this, a little bit of that

Ok, so I've been doing pretty badly with updating this blog. Apologies to anyone who has been wanting new pictures of Sadie. Sadie went to her 6 month appointment a few weeks ago and here are her most recent stats:
Height--26 inches / 50-75th percentile
Weight--15 lbs 2 oz / 25-50th percentile (she went up a percentile!!)
Head--16 3/4 inches / 50-75th percentile
I'm so proud of my little bug; she gained 2 pounds since her last appointment just over a month ago. She's no longer the tiniest baby around and finally has some good chub on her body. Such a cutie.

In other news Sadie has officially moved into her own room and into a nice new crib. That's right, she is no longer sleeping in a pack n play at the foot of our bed. While it's not as easy to give her her binky in the middle of the night, it's so nice to have our own space again. And she LOVES her crib!!! There's so much more room for her to roll around and play. Plus we get to use super cute bedding we got from Teresa.
We've been nice and busy this month; we've had lots of snow, some sunshine, library trips, hospital trips to visit Sadie's poor cousin Rosie who had pneumonia,
lots of trips to the store, and lots of family time. We splurged this month and bought a new tv, finally laying to rest our huge, boxy and heavy tv. I bought Zumba Fitness 2 for the Wii and have been enjoying working out with latin dancing for a few weeks. It's a great workout!! Sadie had become comfortable with solid baby food and really likes her vegetables; she doesn't spit them at me anymore. :)
She's also become comfortable with sitting up
and has really strong arms and back when she has tummy time. In addition to her Exersaucer, which she still loves, she likes to play with water bottles, the tags on her stuffed animals, electronics cords, the basket that holds her toys, and lots of other things that she's not supposed to play with. She enjoys reading before naps, baths, having her picture taken, watching daddy make silly faces, going for drives and walks,
and chewing on my sweatshirt's hoodie strings. She hates having her face cleaned off after eating and having the boogers cleaned out of her nose. We have lots of fun together each day. She's my best little pal!! Such a sweet little girl. We love her.
