I'd say one theory I have to back this up is that Germany was briefed by Russia about the imminent invasion and Germans were asked to stall sanctions until Sunday (3rd or 4th day of invasion) as it will be over by then. When it became clear that invasion is not going to plan, Germany changed their stance 180 degree. Unfortunately I cannot give source for that, but you can follow official German briefings from when the invasion started until Sunday to see the behaviour matches.

Do you have a source for this? I can't find anything to support this, then again the internet is quite flooded with articles with similar search terms.
It seems far more like a slow surge offensive, siege technically. Look at US in Iraq, shock and awe was more akin to "blitzkrieg" and even that campaign took 3 weeks to secure Baghdad.
