I love this hat on her... So cute! She is almost three months in these pictures!
Happy New Years baby! Her first new years... She was sporting her pink poka dots just for the occasion!

Here are a couple pictures from Sage's blessing. The Nance's were so great to let us hold it at their home. I think Stacy had a party at her house for a week straight in December and she still let Sage get blessed there. Thanks Stacy!

Eric did a great job as well. It was a little weird for me, being the mom of the baby, what a new but neat experience. I am so grateful for Eric. Sage is so lucky to have such an amazing Dad. It was a beautiful blessing. I had to post that picture of Dave because I thought it was so funny. Haha.
Here are some of Sage's wonderful Aunts, minus that chubby girl in the middle (me)

It was a little stressful trying to keep Sage from spitting up on her dress!! But she made it! And she was quiet during her whole blessing. I told her she could have as much Similac as she wanted for being so good!


Sage's first encounter with Santa... She did pretty good!

3 Months Old!

I can't believe Sage has finally made it to the three month mark. It's funny how she had only been here for three months but I can barely remember our lives without her :) She is starting to show so much personality and that has made things so much fun! She is still in the horrible habit of sleeping in her swing....Luckily we have got her out of the habit of swinging all night but I do find myself at 5 in the morning with my head on the opposite end of the bed half asleep pushing her swing to get her back to sleep. She can't resist the swinging! But I am getting nervous when she can't take a nap in her crib because it doesn't rock... What have we done!

But it has been worth it because she started sleeping through the night at about 8 weeks. That swing has been worth its weight in gold! When she grows out of it she will just have to get used to the crib. I think I will go on vacation during that week :)

Here are a couple pictures of her baby blessing, Christmas and New Years. She has changed so much since then. It's amazing how fast they grow. She has already started to wear 3-6 months clothes. Thank heavens Eric hasn't banned me from walking into baby Gap. She already has some pretty cute summer dresses! Wahoo for summer!

Katie Perkes, a good family friend, was nice enough to take some shots of Sage when she was only 3 days old. They turned out SOOO cute! I love them! I can't help but post them to show her off :) Katie did such a wonderful job. Thanks Katie!!

The Delivery, Sage just minutes and hours old.






Sage had a rough delivery as you can tell by her coloring in some of these pictures. The cord was rapped around her neck but they got her out and sent her right away to get some oxygen and put her in a little humidifier. She didn't need the oxygen for long but they kept a close eye on her and her lungs for a day or two. But she is fine now and is a happy and healthy baby. I couldn't be more thankful! We love having her in our home!

The delivery for me went very well. Epidurals are AMAZING!I don't know how the pioneers did it, or I could even say my Mom. She only had one epidural and didn't even really like it. Those women are amazing. What a blessing modern medicine is! My family and Eric's family have been so great to help out with anything we need. Stacy just bought Sage a new little swing and I think it is her new favorite toy. She actually had a decent nights sleep last night...including her mom! :) Wahoo!

Sage didn't have a name for about a day and a half but we were finally able to decide. Sage Elle. I love little baby Sage or as Eric calls her, little baby Sagey.
