Sawyer's 2 Month Birthday

Two months ago today, our precious baby daughter was born.

isn't that outfit too cute! it was a gift from my friend Jennifer

Sawyer is already emerging with her own personality. She...

• can stand up in your lap and hold her own weight (okay do all 8 wk olds do this???)
• sticks her tongue out when she smiles

• sleeps great at night, well she gets up to eat but immediately goes back to sleep
• sleeps with one eye open (I think she is keeping one eye on us!)

• can fan her toes out (me & Brennan do this to gross Michael out)
• is VERY grumpy if you mess her nap up
• is very ticklish
• loves to be outside
• is blessed to have a big sister who adores her to pieces

And to update on Brennan (you know I can't leave her out). She...

• can stand almost perfect
• sticks her tongue out when she concentrates (just like Michael)
• has always been a GREAT sleeper
• sleeps with both eyes closed
• can fan her toes and is a part of the "Monkey Toes Club"
• is also grumpy if she hasn't had enough sleep
• is EXTREMELY ticklish
• would rather be inside reading a book
• is blessed to have a baby sister who will adore her more than anything
  
  

hahahahahahaha!!!!! I felt like I couldn't update Sawyer without updating Brennan.

These two months have flown by. Sometimes I wish time could slow down just so I could soak it all in. Sawyer is a beautiful little baby. She is amazingly strong; okay, I haven't been around that many babies to remember this age. But, trust me...she is strong!

This month is a big one for us. At the end of the month, we will dedicate Sawyer at our church. This a commitment for us to raise Sawyer according to His will. Then, the following week in October the adoption will be finalized. We will be completely done with all paperwork, social worker visits and phone calls to check on us! That has been relatively minuscule in the big picture, but we are just ready to have it all behind us!
