x-mas and beyond.................

well someone slept in on x-mas day and got up at 7:00 am
she opened a bunch of presents got a little overwhelmed and had to take a few time out naps
but she knew ALL the colorfully wrapped presents under the tree were for her and she did squeal with excitement
thank you everyone for making this such a special x-mas for sadie

she loved all the things that require mommy and daddy to buy batteries and sing silly songs in our heads
aaron and i play name that toy song alot
aaron and i did get her a little aquarium which she loves
frankie seems uninterested which is good so we don't have to have that natural selection talk with sadie yet......
sadie is starting to crawl sort of.....it is usually going backwards but she can crawl backwards really fast
she also has the strength of a super ninja and enjoys pulling her daddy's beard A LOT
she is also experiencing people anxiety so breaks down in tears if you even look at her the wrong way......
grocery shopping is going to be a hoot!
lets see aside from that it seems everyday she changes a little more she has started to pull herself up to a standing position still real wobbly but her super strong ninja legs can hold her up for a long time!
she says maaa maaaa lots and daaaa daaaa.....she has totally discovered frankie much to frankies demise but i think frankie will be the motivation to crawl
we are signing to her and she seems to understand what we are saying
she loves drinkin' water and has been experimenting with more foods
her favorite like her mom and dad is CHEESE!
so we are raising her well she loves extra sharp cheddar though we give her only a very very small amount...clogs up the ole pipes and that is one thing we do not want a clogged baby
she thinks tofu has an odd texture but when mixed with other veggies really enjoys it....
so what are we planning now?
the holidays are almost over with the new year! soon school will start back up and some day in february aaron and i might see each other
the new schedule has been hard and sadie loves spending time with her daddy she is still adjusting to everything
her mimi is in hawaii and she does miss playing with mimi but she still has bumpa to nap on everyday so that is good.......
wishing everyone a happy new year
sadie sends her love and many many thanks for all the wonderful toys!

merry christmas!

sadie wants to wish everyone a very merry christmas!!!!














we are also selling ad space
all funds go to sadie's college fund





MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
what is more exciting presents or wrapping paper?

week 25!

someone is taking BIG cutie pills every morning
we think she knows that this time of year is the time for presents so....if she looks extra cute and says things like
"mom maaaaa" or "da" than she might get something that lights up and sings to her
sadie wishes for a baby grand piano but......
we are thinkin' about getting her a walker but keep it a secret.......we don't want her to know about it until x-mas day!
all is going well in collinwood
we have the tree up
bec is done with school!!!!! and she got an A in both classes which means she was able to maintain a 4.0 even with a cutie pie in the house distracting her
aaron is about to start a new shift at work (its temporary)
3 pm to 11:30 pm
bec is sad that she will not see aaron

for two months but aaron does get more daddy time
sadie does love her daddy
sadie has started to reach out or up for people when she wants a hug or to be picked up
her personality is really starting to emerge and she does have a sense of humor
sadie is teething so everything goes in her mouth....and everything has drool on it
she wakes up laughing and singing than spends about ten minutes telling you all about her dreams
what do you suppose she dreams about?
she has discovered frankie
frankie on the other hand has not discovered sadie or at least pretends sadie does not exist until a loud squeal of delight scares her away
sadie is trying to crawl her little legs and arms are going but she has not figured out how to lift her belly up off the ground
she also does secret undercover agent baby stuff......she will only roll over if no one is watching, she stops crying as soon as the camera or phone is within vision
she does say "ma maaaaa" alot and she loves to eat peas
the following movie is her first taste of peas

we like to call her green beard!
i think that is all the new news for now
we do wish everyone a relaxing time as we head into the holiday of food, wrapping paper, and festivities
