Kentucky, crawling, and sweet Sadie Louise

This is what we see when we go get Otie in the morning now
Otie conveniently decided to start standing up on things and crawling when I was in Kentucky watching he and Owen while Heidi had the babe
bath time
This picture is classic Otis the whole trip- always watching to see what cool Owen was up to and trying to do the same. Owen is so much fun.

Oh sweet Sadie! I was definitely lucky in Kentucky to be able to be there when she was born. I LOVE this girl (and her mother) and can't wait to see them again.
I meant to have this pic first, but couldn't figure out how to change the order. Sadie was born 11 days early thanks to the magic of castor oil and Heidi doing lunges around her neighborhood.
The trip to Kentucky was the best. I thought I was going to die of exhaustion trying to feed, bathe and keep up with a toddler and my new crawler. I don't know how people do it. Unfortunately for the Maxfield's, Otis wasn't going through the best stretch of sleeping and I think he kept them up in the night more than Sadie did. But we're back on track now and he's sleeping through the night.

Here is a video taken the day Otis started crawling

Tell Heidi congrats! She's beautiful! Kids have the worst timing on everything, but he looks so sweet crawling!

Oh my goodness, Otis is SO BIG! I guess that's what I get for not checking blogs in four months... What a cutie.
