the one where Sadie meets everyone

This little girl has certainly been meeting quite a few people these days. She is very popular. 

I have been able to capture quite a few of them on camera, but sadly, not all of them.

Honorable mentions of those not caught on camera: Merkley cousin Tiffany (she also brought pizza and a blanket she made because she's the bomb). My YW. Our entire ward. Nathan's bosses. Our neighbor. The nurse who worked with me my whole pregnancy. Random lady at Michaels who made me uncomfortable.

Now they don't have to feel left out.
Because I know they did.

No on to those I cared enough about to take pictures.

A couple weeks ago we went out to my Aunt Jill's house so she could meet Jill and my Nana and Papa. It was a really fun afternoon. These 3 people have been some of my biggest supporters and prayer-sayers this past year and a half as we waited for Sadie. I am so glad they finally got to meet the result of all their hard work!

One Sunday we went up to Bountiful to introduce Sadie to my Aunt Beth, Uncle Scott, and my 4 cousins. I love seeing the people I love hold her! They are very precious moments to me. We also cowed down on some awesome food, so it was all around a good time. My cousin, Brennan, left on his mission just a week after this happened. It's crazy to think she will be 2 when he comes home! I am glad they got to meet before he left!

Today Sadie got to meet her first uncle! My in-laws and Jaden were passing through town and stopped by. When they call came to meet Sadie at the hospital, Jaden wasn't allowed in. With the entervirus going around, they weren't allowing anyone under 14 back to the recovery rooms. Well, Jaden is THIRTEEN AND A HALF. But they refused to let him back. So stupid. But I am glad he got to meet her this time! He was so sweet. He was so nervous to hold her because he said he was afraid of breaking her, haha. It was also great to see Grandma and Grandpa Merkley again! 

As you can see, Sadie has been very busy. She's quite the social butterfly. You can schedule a meeting to see her if you'd like. Just have your people call her people.
