Ball Dance 7/12/09
Sadie loves to hear the music and then "dance". It is hysterical. Sometimes she'll do it over and over...
Rocking chair 7/4/09
Sadie also has decided she really likes rocking chairs (and a remote thrown in doesn't hurt either)
1st Horse Ride 7/2/09
Sadie took her first horse ride at Hank & Betsy's ranch (and now that they have horses, it really can be called that) in Texas. Ginger was very gentle and Sadie loved it (then mommy had a turn). Andy had a bit of trouble holding the camera and walking the horse...
Pork & Beans 6/30/09
Sadie has officially gone country and apparently loves her first try of "Pork & Beans". She also decided this would be the best time to practice blowing kisses. Many will be very proud of my restraint by the mess she is making!!
Riding Gyffy 6/28/09
Sadie has a new friend named Gyffy Giraffe (their name, not ours). She was practicing for her real horse ride in Texas!

Sadie took a break from the pool to have a drink and snack. She even offered to share...
Water bottle 6/21/09
Sadie drinking from Auntie Kimmy's water bottle. She would not stop until it was all gone...
Hello? 6/21/09
Sadie playing with the telephone. I think we are going to be in trouble if it is starting already...
Happy 1st Birthday 6/13/09
Sadie's 1st birthday party was the Sat. after her birthday. Lots of her friends from her classes came and friends of ours as well. We had a great time! She didn't dig into the cake like in Chicago but that's ok...
Walker 6/11/09
Sadie loves cruising with her walker. She is getting really good at it but still doesn't want to do it on her own. She's lazy and just sits down!

Ball with Calli 5/28/09
Sadie has finally realized it is more fun to play with Calli than to torture her. They played like this for a really long time...and Sadie was cracking up the whole time!
Chicago - Steve swing 5/23/09
When I was little one of my favorite things was to ride on the Steve swing. Until recently he proved he could still swing me but the torch has now passed to Sadie, who also loves it!!
Chicago - Cake eating 5/23/09
It took a couple small bites before Sadie really got the hint and then went in full force!! She really liked that cupcake (notice it is almost the size of her head)!!!
Chicago - Birthday song 5/23/09
Singing Happy Birthday to Sadie!! A little off key and actually this was a repeat but still nice none the less ;)
Chicago - Ah ah ah ah ha 5/23/09
Sadie likes to sing this song but usually you look stupid doing it a couple times first (I edited out the first few times Andy did it for that very reason)
Chicago - Bday Present 5/23/09
Sadie's birthday present from Oma & Opa. She happened to be more interested in the paper though instead of the actual present. She'll catch on soon enough!

Sadie gets excited for her bath and has to make sure I am doing everything right...
Drumming 4/16/09
Sadie loves her magic wand and finds many uses for it (along with, you guess it, a recycled box)
Blackberrying 4/16/09
Great, now I will have 2 of them to compete with!! This was the only time she got to play with it and good thing. Already addicted!!
Playing with Recycling 4/14/09
Sadie loves to play in the recycling bin and found that a box is just as fun...Andy doesn't believe me that we don't have to spend a ton on toys!!

Sadie wresting with Giraffe 4/8/09
Sadie found my Giraffe on the rocker and decided to take it. She likes to wrestle with it which is pretty funny!
Sadie climbing stairs 4/8/09
Sadie started to take off up the stairs like she had done it a million times (and with a rattle in her hand)!! I think she must practice things when I'm not looking!!
Sadie with walker 4/4/09
Sadie grabbed her walker and just started to go. Hard to catch on video since I didn't want it to get away from her! The other times she has tried it she would to forget to move her feet...

Sadie "chasing" Calli 4/1/09

Sadie's Bear Crawl 3/8/09

Sadie in a NY cab 3/6/09
Sadie started doing this tongue thing the night we got to NY. Finally I caught her doing it in the cab. Of course once she realized I was filming, she stopped!
Sadie's Final Swim Lesson 2/28/09
Sadie had her final survival swim lesson in "winter clothes" including a regular diaper. The day before she did summer clothes. They do this to get them used to the extra weight and wetness since she will most likely not fall in in a bathing suit! They also practiced dropping her in various ways to make sure she could find up regardless of how she falls. Pretty impressive that someone so young can learn this!! She is a rockstar and now I am confident she would know what to do!!
BTW, the beeping is because it is the end of the lesson, that is the timer.
Sadie swimming 2/28/09
Sadie gets flipped to make sure she can re-orient herself and float back to the surface.

Sadie found Calli's ear and decided she needed to pull it multiple times and then try to eat it! Calli is quite tolerant!! (and gets quite consumed with her own itching)

Sadie & the magic wand 1/31/09
Noni* actually got this magic wand for Andy but he gave it to Sadie to teach her some magic tricks early. She'd rather use it as a drum stick...
Sadie's swim lessons 1/16/09 - Part 2
This is also the first week but practicing the roll. If she falls in, she needs to know how to roll on to her back to be able to breath. She is pretty good at the roll.
Sadie's swim lesson 1/16/09 - Part 1
This is the first week of Sadie's survival swim lessons. This is the float although most of the time she likes to kick but then gets water in her face. We are working on that so she is calm like in this video.
Sadie & Jack 1/16/09
This is Sadie's little boyfriend Jack from our Friday class. His birthday is in May (an older man!) and they met when she was about 2 months old. That class has ended but have no fear, Jack is in our music class on Sat.
Sadie & Calli 1/15/09

Sadie splashing in the bath 12/21/08
This was the first time Sadie really "played" in the bath and was having a great time! She is going to kill me for this later but it'll be a long time so here it is. She'll get over it...there's bound to be something worse to take its place!
