1 week old!

Sawyer is 1 week old today & I can't believe how the week has flown! She is such a good baby! She sleeps A LOT of course, and even at nite! Yay! ;o) We go for our 1 week checkup tomorrow. I'm anxious to see what she weighs since she's been eating so much!

Anyway, here are some more pics from the week.

Peyton is such a proud big sister! And she is always so willing to help me out when it comes to the baby. I truly do have 2 wonderful daughters!

Mommy & her girls!

Floor time with Daddy & Peytie!

What we do best... ;o)

Similarities & Differences...

Joe & I have been talking about how much Sawyer looks like Peyton when she was a newborn. In fact, Joe said "How the heck did we manage to have 2 kids that look so much alike, 4 yrs apart?!" I see A LOT of Peyton in her, however once posting these pics - I also see a lot of differences as well. Nevertheless, we have 2 GORGEOUS girls!

Just a quick baby update...

Well, as most of you know - STILL no baby girl!! Last Tuesday was my official due date but she, evidently, is going to be fashionably late! ;o) (I think the toughest thing about this is that her sister -our first born- came a week early so I'm just a little surprised.) I saw the doctor yesterday & we scheduled induction for this Tuesday at 6:30am. So, unless it happens on it's own before then - that'll be the day! Unfortunately my body has not cooperated at all (as in, my cervix is still closed! DARN IT!!) so we find it highly unlikely that it WILL happen on it's own... :(

Nevertheless, contrary to what people have been saying - "Sawyer Jane" WILL be here before Christmas - Thank GOD!

Will update you all next week!!

~Love, Sarah

A visit from Great Grandpa Ben!

Peyton's Great Grandpa Ben came for a visit this weekend. He lives in Texas and rarely EVER makes it back. Him & G-pa Matt are going grouse hunting this week. (It's an annual thing that a group of guys do & they decided to join them again this year.) He, of course, had to spoil Peytie by bringing her this really fun blow-up playhouse... complete with 100 balls! (Which will, no doubt, be the highlight of her mom's daily cleaning from here on out! ;o) Below are some pics of them setting it all up.

Thanks Grandpa! We love you & were so glad to see you!!

Crazy 'static' hair!

There's a detachable roof on top so she was loading the balls up there & then pulling the hatch & letting them spill out! How fun huh?! ;o)

This is just a pic of one of Peytie's new school shirts. The lighting was terrible & the pic obviously didn't turn out very well but I think the shirt says it all! "Mommy's Cutie"
