sadie and the ice cream cone

so it happens at one point or another we break down as parents and say its okay to have some refined sugar because we know you will run for the next five miles
and that is what happened
we had a big weekend filled with lots of running and playing
and looking back now very little sleeping
but that is what summer is all about
playing until you fall down exhausted only to wake up and do it ALL over again
Silas had his first play date with Niles
they talked and yelled at us......but it was fun
sadie ran through the house singing "there are 2 babies" "2 babies"
so of course everyone had to be hugged and kissed until once again meow meow became the focus of attention
as grandma says meow meow deserves a medal for bravery and 9 lives........
since the weather is getting nicer we have been taking our nightly walks to the beach, sadie went to the zoo twice last week and rode her bike or ran depending on the mood
aside from that we are collecting rocks and enjoying life
silas as rolled over a few times and can talk non-stop about many important things
sadie woke up this morning and pointed to herself and said "big"
so i suppose she had a dream about being a big girl

enjoy the week of sunshine and lilacs
PS. cutie story:
we can finally put sadie's hair in bunny tails.....b/c pig tails are scary
