The fun is just beginning!

Sadie took her first steps last night with mommy and daddy. She doesn't seem to be progressing to quickly, but we are very excited. Maybe she will be walking by her first birthday! Here are a couple of video clips:


Sadie is feeling better now!!!!!

As most of you know we have had a very sick little girl this week. She gave a scare Sunday when she spiked a very high temperature. After several days at home, she is finally feeling better and the temperature is gone. This has really reminded me of how I should be thankful that I am healthy and to not take our health for granted. Thank you so much for all your e-mails, phone calls, and prayers. Here is a picture of what happens when you leave a sick baby alone in her room to play without supervision!

Somebody's got it made!

Pa-Pa wanted to install a seatbelt on the golf cart for Sadie, but we came up with a better idea. She was amazed and we never heard a word as long as she was riding with Pa-Pa!

Are they destined or what?

Logan and Sadie are already taking baths together (ahahahhaahahaha). Radez and Elizabeth watched Sadie the other night so that JJ and I could go on a date (what is a date:):))! It looks like her and Logan had a blast. Check out both of these videos. I am very impressed that the videographer even blocked out the important parts!!!! Notice how Elizabeth is nicely teaching Sadie to share in one of them and in the other one, Sadie is trying to teach Logan how to clap!



Sadie has her license in record time!

Okay, so some friends of ours GAVE us this car because they had a boy. How AWESOME was that. Sadie can't quite get it yet, but she loves the car. It sits in our house and she eats a snack in it every afternoon. Check out this SUPER cute video!

11 Months Old!

Wow, it is hard to believe that last year at this time I was walking my butt off trying to get Sadie out of me. Not much has changed, because I am still running my butt off to get the weight off that Sadie left me!hahahaha. Just kidding! It's worth every pound she has put on me. She is growing up so fast and she is so much fun now. Her favorite things to do are talk....talk....talk somemore.....and then talk. After that she enjoys playing with a variety of her toys. She weighs 17lbs9oz now and I'm not sure about her height. We'll be going in for her year check-up on May 8th. Her new words are papa, barking when a dog barks, and then she still says duck, bye-bye, all done, night night, and nononononono all the time. She has quite the personality on her and she is constantly getting popped for doing wrong things, but she is learning. One of the highlights of this month was watching her push her toy around the den and stopping at the things that she had been popped for and saying "no-no". It was really cute and very encouraging for JJ and I. We're hoping she'll start walking soon, but we see no real signs of that happening anytime soon. That's about it for now! The below pictures are when she is happiest.....NAKED!!!!!
