Luke Trio

It's been awhile, and I feel like I don't have much new news to share. I guess that is a good thing. Sadie is doing great! We are finished having the home health nurse come. Even though Sadie doesn't need this anymore, I will miss the times with our nurse. She was always very encouraging, and now we won't have the weekly weight check. Last Thursday, she was up to 9-5. She is doing really well for being off her
O2 during the day. She seems the same as always! It is SO nice not having our 25 foot range of tubing to be tied to in the house, and it's much easier going somewhere. Sadie is full of smiles and loves to look at faces and coos quite a bit, too, esp. when you sing to her. Maybe she is telling me to be quiet. :)
Sadie is sleeping well at night, and I like the schedule we are on. She goes to bed between 6:30-7, and then I feed her before I go to bed. I am only feeding her once through the night, and then she gets up between 7 and 8:00.
I have decreased the amount of formula I am putting in her bottle (shhh...don't tell my doc!), and I am giving her some Reliv (a nutrition formula the whole family is on). She is doing great - not gassy and backed up like she used to be. All our noses are thankful. :)
Since things are "calming down" in the life of Sadie, I thought I would expand this blog to include my other two daughters. My grandmother refered to my three girls once as a trio, and I like that. I always love reading my friends' blogs about their life and families, so I am going to head that direction. I will update about the girls and their activities, but I want to be "safe" and not share too much info, and I will try not to use other peoples names or pictures without their permission first.
As you can tell in the pictures, we decorated the driveway the other night with sidewalk chalk. The girls love it and have lots of fun, and I only allow them to do it on a bath night. After playing with chalk, their clothes need a bath, too!
This afternoon we went to the county fair to ride some rides, thank to grandparents. The girls had a blast riding rides with their cousins. Analise rode the rollercoaster, so she was thrilled. Maisie enjoyed her little rides; it's the first year she's been big enough to ride. She isn't afraid of anything, so we knew she'd have fun. The weather was 100 degrees, so we enjoyed snowcones, lemonades and the AC when we got back in the van. I hope you're staying cool where you are!
