Sadie's Blog: It's Spring Aleady!

These pictures are all out of order since I'm so behind on blogging that I forgot how to load them appropriately! We are doing well and have been loving the weather lately. Sadie has been very healthy this winter. She seems to finally be over the hump of daycare sickness and she has apparently built up some immunity. She still has some allergy issues but they are not too bad.

Sadie is always coming up with funny things to say these days...or pulling out words I didn't know that she knew! She told me the other day something was dangerous. She also has discovered the question why! That one's challenging. The other day she grabbed my arm and hugged it and said, "you're the best!!"

More stories about happenings in our life are below!

We've been keeping my brother-in-law's dog, Chloe most of the winter. Sadie loves Chloe. Chloe tolerates Sadie.

We had a playdate today with Simon who is a friend of Sadie's from daycare. Simon has been in her class since Sadie started there at 13 months. We hung out at the mall today where htey have a little play area with some miniature ranch houses. Could do without the gun in the background, but...

this is Simon on the train ride through the mall.

Last night we went to dance Marathon at USF! We didn't marathon but Sadie had a great time dancing and showing off for a couple of hours!

Sadie made a new friend named Eva at the party.

She spent part of the night wandering around with this beach ball looking for boys to play ball with her. There are a couple I would like to hire with babysitters!

This is "Miss Dance Marathon"

Sadie kept calling her Cinderella!

She was very sweet...

At home in her Tinkerbell outfit!

Last weekend we went to our friend Salay's birthday party. It was a perfect sunny day and the party was at a park so a good time was had by all! Her is Salay with her cousins Garrett and Lexi.

This is Miss Edy. She is 3 1/2 months old.

And this is Salay's sweet sister Hadley who is 2 1/2 months.

Lyla, Anna, Sadie, and cake

Sadie likes the icing best...

Cute...

I kind of dread going to the park because getting Sadie off the swings is sometimes a chore!

Her hair looked really cute in french braids at the beginning of the day...

Back at Salay's house playing with all the loot!

Bobby and Shawna, my niece and nephew came for a visit in early March. This is at Parkland Farms where you can get some ridiculously large but delicious servings of strawberry shortcake!

Sadie loved spending time with her cousins!

Okay, the servings arent' quite this large, but they are big!!!

Eating lunch on the beach...

Our first bisit to the beach this season...Sadie had a ball!

It was a gorgeous day with a wonderful breeze--no sweating but not cold....ahhhhh....

I always like to get a picture of Sadie in front of the azaleas when they bloom, though combing her hair might have been a good idea...

Sadie got to sleep on the floor of my room when Shawna and Bobby were here. She's testing out her bed here...

We went to a little children's festival at USF a few weeks ago and Rocky the Bull was there! I forgot to tell Sadie to make the Bulls symbol though!

Anna, Lyla, and Sadie waiting patiently for the start of the Laurie Berkner Band! Her first concert!

On the carousel at another mall...

Sadie loves taking Chloe for a walk. And Chloe is tiny enough that Sadie can hold the leash...

More lovin' on Chloe

Chloe might be ready to go home...

Edy and Hadley. We had Chrismas with our friends late this year--in February. Mainly due to these two and their entrance into the world on either side of the holidays!
