A Lot

Still unpacking - someday we'll be moved in. Someday. But it is starting to feel more like home already. We've already enjoyed swimming in the pool at our complex and I love being able to take Sadie for walks during the day without getting chased by turbo mosquitoes like we did at our last place. But the best part, not having to worry about Ryan commuting everyday.

We finally bought a crib this weekend. Little did we know it came in the largest and heaviest crib box ever! And yes, Ry and I carried it across the parking lot, up the stairs, and into our quaint apartment by ourselves. He's strong enough - me on the other hand thought I was going to die, or drop it on my husband since I was going up the stairs first. So awkward. I took pictures, but have yet to unpack my camera cord, so this pic from the net will have to suffice. We love it though - it is so pretty and very solid! And Sadie loves it too! She sleeps with all her limbs sprawled out & for some reason she has this habit of lifting both her legs up high in the air and kicking them out very quickly and hard in her sleep. I think she must be dreaming about swimming. Now with the crib she doesn't kick into anything and doesn't wake herself up in the process. Hooray!

This next part is mostly for Grandma F since she made a special request...some random pictures of Sadie.

Are you used to the jets yet or do you still turn to see them? :)

If I came down to hold Sadie, you and Ryan could swim at the same time.

Love how you said Sadie lifts her legs and kicks out, like she is swimming.

She will need a new suit next year, and lessons too.

Maybe even I will need a new suit next year.
