The Merkleys: weekending

I used to be really good at updating the blog every weekend. I need to get better at that, because I have way too many Sadie pictures. It's a problem. A really adorable problem. I know the tiny details of every weekend may bore some people. but I love going back and looking at all my old blog posts and the things we did! Sooooo deal with it.

But this weekend was fun! The weather has been INSANE. Insane in a good way. So we really wanted to get out and enjoy the 60 degree weather. Because seriously.. this is insane.

Friday we got Cafe Rio and said was all looking like this

And Lady was deciding that the toilet is her new place to nap and hang out.

The best thing ever happened on Saturday morning. Sadie has been sleeping like CRAP lately. It has sucked butts. My doctor says a 4 month sleep regression is very common because they are progressing so quickly at that stage. I told her to shut up and make my baby sleep more. Just kidding, I only thought that. Okay back to the story. Sadie sleeps like crap. And Friday night was an especially bad night. She was up every hour and a half. She only calms down and goes back to sleep if I nurse her for a couple minutes so Nathan is really not much help. But when she decided she was going to wake up for good around 8, when she usually sleeps until at least 10, I started crying. Seriously. Nathan hopped out of bed and said he would take her and I fell back asleep before he even left the room. I slept for 3 more hours. It was heaven. When I came out, Sadie was bathed and dressed for the day, and already taking her first nap. Maybe she was dressed in a romper with leg warmers on, but she was dressed none-the-less. I have a sweet husband.

I did, however, change her outfit, haha. I couldn't pass up the chance for her to wear this freaking awesome cardigan. I mean, come on.

We went to Banbury Cross down town for our favorite donuts. Ahhh now I want donuts again.

Donuts give Sadie a severe case of "fat face"

Take a look at these donuts and realize that you will never taste anything as amazing as that cinnamon donut.

We walked and drove around, enjoying the sunshine, then headed to Pleasant Grove to go to a Vintage Market where our friends had a booth. It was really fun! Tons of totally awesome and weird stuff, and good to catch up with our friends Logan and Jacqueline.

We got Chick-Fil-A then came home so Sadie could nap. Then we went to take pictures for a couple of youth in our ward. Their parents could make it to take pictures of them before the dance, so they asked us. It was fun. I love these kids. The youth in our ward are the bomb.
