week 5 & 6...baby containers!

the one thing i never expected to learn about was how many ways one can contain a baby!
for example:
we have a bassinet to contain in the bedroom, a crib for her nursery, a pack-n-play for the living room, a bouncy chair for the dining room, and a cradle for the study, (so mom or dad can sit on the computer with one leg rocking the cradle....otherwise it is the fine art of typing with one hand which i have gotten really good at!), a stroller for walks (she's not a big fan of the stroller though), a car seat to contain her in the car, and baby bondage otherwise known as her baby backpack which she loves!
oh i forgot a baby bathtub for water containment!

anyways sadie's development at 5/6 weeks....
time does go quickly it is hard to believe how much she has grown in just a few weeks.
she has started saying goo and aaaaa, she loves kicking in her crib and has added a new sound a scream of delight!
she took a swimming bath with mom last night and loved it!
she went shopping at IKEA and picked herself out a little rug for the nursery
aside from that she is wonderful she is sleeping about three hours at night so mom is getting a little more sleep, she can lift her head up real high and keep it up for a LONG time, which stills scares us.....she is super strong
she has started launching herself off of bellies by getting her toe into the belly button and pushing which is great fun for her
she loves napping with mom and dad any chance she can get
our napping days are almost over though
it is time to think about work and school once again (bec is trying to put off the home improvement for a little longer...though we did start to go through the basement, the study, and the garage in attempts to get organized once again)
that is all for now!
sadie goes back to the doc's august 18 and bec goes back the august 2 to find out if she is allowed to go back to work...
if sadie starts walking and doing our taxes in the next week i will let you all know
otherwise we are on parental time which means i have no idea when i will update it again
until than
love!

This baby gets prettier every time you post!!!! I hope to see you all in Sept. Hopefully she will not have gone off to college before I get there. I hear she's just pretty darn smart.Can't wait to spoil her alittle and to see the two of you. I will let your mom know when I have all the arrangments made. Love to you all! Aunt Cyndie
