week 32 and x-mas right around the corner

8 weeks or two months to go before omen #2 comes out and says hello
how are you?
and considering the linguistics skills sadie is expressing it would not be a surprise if he does come out saying hello and a manuscript for a short novella
yes sadie is amazing us daily with her ability to speak in three languages including latin
she is currently learning how to spell her name
she can identify most letters in the alphabet when written and is learning to identify the numbers when written
so we are enrolling her into the graduate program at harvard next semester to learn about advance economics....
which by the way omen #2's official name is "buddy bud first bank of koonce" figure it would be a good time to get our feet wet with economic bail out right?
anyways all the silliness aside (b/c we are really a serious crabby bunch here in cleveland)
what has been happening......
the odd thing is we are ALL exhausted but when i look back at our days i come up with little
sadie is preparing for #2
she is learning how to make soup....her favorite is turtle soup she makes with her mimi
it involves running bunnies over with her toy car than stirring them in a pot.....
she is also learning how to put her clothes away, and has figured out how to tickle herself and those around her so watch out she has magical fast tickle fingers
she is also going take her mimi and bumpa to go see ELMO LIVE in downtown cleveland in feb
so she is learning how to drive.....yes her brand new car!
that is our big excitement we bought a new used car
new being a 2008, used being there are already some miles on it.....but it is FUN
it is a big car sorry SUV
(but aaron i both feel like we are driving a tank which means all you little mini cooper style cars out there be very very careful.....we gotsome power now)
yes we have joined the ranks of the gas guzzling people out there trying to figure out how to put two car seats (maybe three), groceries and stroller into any kind of vehicle.....thus we have purchased a ford escape
we are among though the big SUV drivers that is trying to help the economy and the american car industry so before you yell at us......think about all the good we did
now that is off the list now its a matter of sitting and waiting
#2 can get very very active at times to the point where i can not sit down
so i have learned a trick or two
when at work he gets to listen to one of my headphones while i listen to the other
currently he really enjoys 80's pop rock though is not a big fan of belinda carlisle, he LOVES duran duran and pat benatar
not sure if this is going to become a part of his profile when he does emerge but it is interesting either way......
that is all for today and perhaps this week

Welcome to the true driving experiance. A FORD and a SUV. Believe me you can not kill one of these things. I am driving my 2nd one and they both went way over 100 thousand miles. I get about 18 in town and about 22- 26 on the road. It helps to have a tail wind. Remember they blow over easily so if the winds blowing hard slow way down. Sadie sure is growing . What a sweet little kid. wish I was there to see all of ya'll and spend Christmas with the family. Hope to see you all soon Love Aunt Cyndie

Hi! Are you taking Sadie to Penitentiary Glen to the Candyland exhibit? I saw information about it on NBC today and this is the last year. It looks like a fun exhibit to go through. If you want to introduce her to the creatures of the night and underground, "The Wild Nights Exhibit" is at the West Woods Nature Center in Russell Twp on Rt 87 through March 1. There are lots of hands on for little and big kids. Have a fun weekend. Michele
