20 months





I think it is so crazy how much love you can have for your own child. Every day I spend with Sadie I feel incredibly blessed to be her mom and be in her life. It seriously blows me away how much love I have for her. I know this is kind of cheesy but I love this little girl SO much. I really can't explain it. Anyway, here are a few facts about Sadie right now...

-She is talking non-stop. She says any word we ask her to and is even talking in sentences. She is very easy to understand and always lets me know what she wants. I feel like we communicate really well with her.
-She loves to sing (one of her favorites is 'Elmo Song;" she can sing the whole thing by her self) sometimes she trades other people's names for Elmo's. It's too funny.
-She loves to dance. For some reason this girl loves to listen to "Carmen" which is this opera-type song and The Blue Danube Waltz. I guess it started when we would waltz around the house with her months and months ago kind of as a joke and know she always asks to listen and dance to Carmen and all this classical music.
-She loves to help me clean and cook. I can't make dinner without her on the counter helping me. (Jello and eggs are some of her favorite things to cook)
-She can't wait for her little sister to be born. She talks about her all the time.
-She is crazy about animals, always has been. But recently she asks to go to the pet store all the time.
- I started taking her to gymnastics and she loves to walk on the balance beam and jump on the trampoline
-She is still a shrimp. Less than 5% for weight and in the 10th% for height. She is 20 months and only weighs 18 pounds. The doctors still have me slapping tons of butter on all her food.
-There are these 2 older boys across the street and they are always outside playing ball. When we go out in the front she says "hey guys" over and over and it gets louder and louder each time until they acknowledge her. I think they kind of ignore her. But it's really funny

I could go on and on, but there is a little glimpse about Sadie right now.

That whole "hey guys, HEY GUYS!" thing made me laugh. What a funny little thing. Those are some darn right pretty pics of her, too. She's very good for you when you're taking her pictures, huh? She's had lots of practice, I guess.
