Snow Bunny


My precious Snow Bunny yesterday

Spin Toy Spin

Sarah just went crazy spinning her toy! She had a moment of extreme concentration. :)

Snow Day!
















Ok, I know I am not the only one posting about our snow day today but it has been amazing! It has been snowing non-stop since about 9:00 this morning ( it is now 6:00 in the afteroon). We have about 2-3 inches of the pretty white stuff! Sarah enjoyed being outside and watching Dylan run and play with Jordan. I copied my mom and put Sarah in a ziploc bag so her feet did not get wet...an old trick pulled by Cindy when it snowed in SA in the 80's.
We had another "first" today...Sarah rolled from back to front!

Lots of posts today....




Watching the 2010 Olympics with Daddy! Go USA!






Sarah had the chance to love on Grandma and Grandpa Maddox on Sunday and enjoyed Grandpa reading her new ABC Art Book. She loved playing games with Grandma and gave big smiles when she was bounced in the air!






A First











Sarah had her first taste of rice cereal on Friday. She also had the chance to hold her cup with and without the sippy cup lid on. She was distracted from the cereal and kept eyeing Daddy's beer. Nice. Every night she is getting a little better at using her spoon. You go girl!

Let's Rodeo San Antonio!







We went down to SA for the rodeo on Saturday night and enjoyed the finals with some very dear friends. Sarah was dressed to "support" us going to the rodeo! (she did not attend...she is too tiny this year) Uncle Ryan provided Sarah with her cowgirl outfit...boots and all! Thank you Ryan!

What?!?...I'm already 4 months old?


Sarah turns 4 months (officially tomorrow) but we had her appointment today and she did great! A happy, healthy little girl!


13 lbs 10 oz. ( 50%)

24 1/4 inches ( 50%)

head circumference 40.1 cm. ( 30%)


She got 4 shots and one oral vaccine today and did great! She was shocked by the first shot and by the 3rd she was crying and then stopped once Mommy had the chance to pick her up. She then decided to smile and talk to everyone as we checked out. Such a tough little girl!

Growing so fast!

Today is Sarah's 4 month appointment but before I head out to take her to the doctor I wanted to post her previous stats: ( this is basically for me so I have record of her changes!)

At 2 weeks old:
7 lbs 9 oz. (27%)
20 inches (75%)
Head circumference 34.2 cm. (30%)

At 2 months old:
10 lbs 4 oz. ( 40%)
21 3/4 inches (25%)
Head circumference 37.6 cm. ( 25%)

Sarah, you received 5 shots and 1 oral vaccine, all of which you did not like one bit. Daddy came with us since I knew I couldnt do it on my own. When Dr. Terwelp ask me if you had rolled from tummy to back I said, "Not yet," and then you decided that there was no time like the present and rolled on the exam table. Before the shots, you chit chatted with all the nurses and cooperated with whatever they ask of you!

To sleep or not to sleep....

Poor Sarah...she is having trouble with sleeping during the night. She has been waking up to eat and then wanting to hang out and play instead of going back to sleep. Momma is getting tired. She did however have a better night last night and only woke up once and then went right back down until 7:00! I say this as I listen to her fuss in her bed as I am trying to get her to take a nap since she was tired playing out here with me. She is NOT a napper... Fellow moms, any suggestions?

Flipper Floppers




My sweet Aunt Kristen and cousin Audrey sent Sarah some Flipper Floppers as a baby shower gift. She is finally big enough to wear them and LOVES watching them ( not sure if she has figured out her feet are in there) and grabbing them. Great entertainment.

My loves!
