First week of day care :(

Wow what a week! This week was Lanie's first time to go to daycare and for mommy to leave her and go back to work. Sunday night was the hardest thing in the world. I feed Lanie her bedtime bottle and then continued to hold her while she was sleeping sobbing the entire time. Mark came down and reassured me everything was going to be alright. Monday morning bright and early I woke Lanie up for her bottle. We had some nice quite moments and then Mark finished getting her ready. I told Mark to dress her cute because she was going to have a photo session!

 Right after this photo was taken I was a mess. I love the next picture because it's like Lanie is saying ahh Mom it's gonna be just fine :)
 Day 2 of day care with Ms. Julie and Ms. Andrea she loves it there already and they love her!
 So if going to day care and Mommy going back to work wasn't already a huge week Lanie also had her first party! The day care she goes to had a Easter party and Lanie was the life of the party. 

 She is already coloring eggs and writing her name Mark and I knew we had a smart baby :)


Lanie also had her two month doctor appointment.  She is a healthy girl and doing fantastic the doctor said she is perfect.  At two months she is 11lbs 3 oz (56%) and 23 ½ inches (86%) it looks like she might be tall just like her Daddy. Lanie also had to get three shots today; it was not fun at all.  The poor little thing let out the loudest scream ever, but the nurse was great she got it done super quick and then I scooped her up for snuggles to make it all feel better. I think it was harder on me than it was Lanie.  So to recap this week was full of first….first time at daycare, first party, and first round of big shots.  This weekend is a big one too as we celebrate with family and friends the resurrection of Jesus. Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter J

This is Lanie saying lets not do that shot thing for awhile o.k. Mom.

Alright so my first attempt at posting some videos.  First of all let me say sorry for the annoying talking done by me in the back ground.  I am one proud Mommy and Lanie does her big smiles when someone talks silly to her so if you want the smiles you gotta talk silly :)

Big Doings

The Wade family had an eventful weekend/week so far. I had my 6 week check up and everything looks great. So I successfully carried a baby, delivered a baby, and healed from having that big girl (although not as big as some of my friends who recently had babies kudos to Jamie :). This weekend Lanie attended her first wedding. One of Marks friends was getting married so we traveled up north for the event. She got to meet our very good friends the Corrells and before the wedding she got some much needed Grandma Sandy time up in Plainville. Before heading home I was putting my sweet baby girl in a cozy sleeper while I was still in my fancy wedding attire. As I was picking Lanie up off the changing table in the bathroom she decides to spit up, not a cute little spit up but a all down my arm in my hair dripping everywhere spit up. Of course she was all smiles after that and I was covered and of course the burp rag was out with Dad. Thankfully Kristen just happen to come in and help me mop it all up we had a good laugh and I proudly wore the badge of motherhood.



This week has been all about how much time I can spend with Lanie because I go back to work on April 18th.  I keep telling myself it is only 5 1/2 weeks until I am on summer break (yeah for being a teacher), but I think in reality it is going to be the hardest 5 1/2 weeks EVER! This week has been all about play time, walks with Mommy, and cuddles as much as possiable.  I did however go out with my moms group on Monday night from my church for a mothers night out. It was so much fun to talk and laugh with the other ladies.  When I came home at 9:30 I walked in on this adorable scene. Daddy and his little glow worm :)




Today Lanie and I are off to meet her sitters and go over her schedule. I am so lucky to have found such an amazing daycare so hopefully that will make everything a little bit easier on Mommy.

Cousins and Smiles :)


While I am on maternity leave I realized I might get more than one post up a week. Lanie is so cute its hard not to show her off! On Sunday some of my cousins came to visit and meet Lanie for the first time. We were so excited to visit with family and so happy they made the trip. Lanie was in her normal relaxed state and was such a good girl. She is such a good baby I keep wondering when the other shoe will drop, but maybe just maybe she is, dare I say it a good baby :0 I am sure she will get me back in her teen years :)



Cousin Madison holding baby Lanie. She has a new little sister so she is a pro!



This is my cousin Jen holding Lanie and I am holding her baby girl Wren and the big man standing is Drew my cousin Carly's son he just turned 1.
Daddy and Lanie at 10:00 p.m. bottle. After this she goes down for the night and usually stays down till 5:30-6:30 amazing and she is only 5 weeks old!

So Lanie melts my heart she has since they put her on my chest as soon as she came into the world, but I have been waiting for the smiles. The smiles that every mom talks about. The ones that no matter how many poop diapers, sleepless nights, or the hundredth time I had to change her because of spit up makes it all disappear because the smile just make you melt! Well they started and her smile is the best thing EVER!!!

Two fun facts I have discovered this week of being a mom.


1) I told my friend one time that when you can fart on a guy it is true love. Well Lanie takes it a step further and poops on me and then smiles about it I guess thats her way of showing mommy some love.


2) I don't think Lanie likes the ladies of the View. Everyday when they come on she gets a little fussy and then wants to go down for her nap. I guess she doesn't like their hot topics :)

Lanie Bug



Lanie is here and already a month old gesh time is racing! Last night during dinner I told Mark I wanted to start a blog for our friends and family that don't get to see Lanie as much as they would like to. Also I thought it would be something neat for her to one day look at when she is older and see how clueless her parents really were! I named the blog Lanieweekly because I am a huge US Weekly fan and also because I know I most likely won't get a post up more than once a week :) Mark and I love this little girl so much every day with her is exciting, new, scary, smelly, and just a huge adventure. We thank God everyday that he gave us such an amazing healthy baby girl. This blog will be full of misspelled words, horrible grammar, and funny stories from a first time Mom and Dad that just want to share every special moment that Lanie lets us partake in every day! So here are a couple pictures that make me smile ....until next week :)
