These are a few of my favorite things...

Here are some shots of Sadie doing some of her favorite things- playing with her friend at the beach, taking a ride in Nana's walker, and helping Dadda drive!

Bathing Beauties

Sadie and her cousin Cali took their first (of many, I'm sure) bath together! Cali enjoyed all of Sadie's bath toys, while Sadie was more interested in finding Cali's belly button....

Swinging

A video of Sadie and her buddy Molly swinging together at the park this morning:

A Day At The Beach

...and that is exactly what today was! Sadie and I spent our first morning of the season at the beach today while Sean worked on painting the exterior of the house. Sadie had a blast, and loved burying her feet in the sand. Needless to say, the hot weather and salty air totally wiped her out, and she was asleep before we even pulled out of the parking lot.

Morning at the Park

Sadie and I enjoyed a nice morning at the park together, and surprisingly she kept her shades on the whole time!

Easter

Sadie has enjoyed quite a few Easter egg hunts, Easter bunny spottings, and eggs this Easter season. Here are some photos from Easter 2009:

Easter Egg Hunt

Sadie enjoyed her first Easter Egg Hunt at the park this past weekend, but was a bit unsure of the Easter Bunny...

Small Spaces

Unfortunately Sadie had an accident on Monday afternoon while going down the slide with her Mamma and injured her foot. She wasn't able to put any weight on it, so we brought her in for x-rays, and turns out the poor little girl has a broken growth plate! The doctor gave us a choice of whether or not to cast it, saying that either way she would be uncomfortable- either the cast would be uncomfortable or her foot would be hurting, so we decided not to cast it and to re-asses in a few days. We were told the not wearing a cast wouldn't be detrimental to the healing process. So that's that. She doesn't seem to be in any pain, unless she tries to stand or walk on it. She's been a real trooper, and it certainly hasn't stopped her from crawling about the house and searching for small spaces to maneuver into.

Aquarium

Yesterday Sadie took her first trip into the Aquarium with Mamma and Auntie Winnah. A good time was had by all, and although Auntie Winnah had to leave before lunch to get to work, we were very happy to spend the morning with her!

Bumpin' up and down in my little red wagon.....

Sadie has thoroughly enjoyed her new red wagon she got as a birthday present from Mimi & Poppa!

She loves to serenade us with her kazoo skills as we walk.

Sadie go braugh!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!

The Godfather

Sadie enjoyed having her Godfather, Marc, as a babysitter this morning. They apparently had SO much fun that she was completely passed out by the time I got home from work.

Sadie also enjoyed an extra-long bath tonight, splashing, blowing bubbles, and even doing a little performing for Mamma.

Snowed In

Sure enough March has come in like a vicious lion, and here we are snowed in on March 9th. Sadie has become a pro at pointing to her various body parts, as well as using sign language for "more" and "please."
