Play Dough

I made some playdough for Sadie a couple of weeks ago and it turned out really well! She loves playing with it. We got a bunch of cookie cutters to use with it and she loves to roll out the playdough with the rolling pin! She knows exactly which cupboard I keep it in and is begging me every day to play with playdough now!

Having fun!

Attempting to cut out shapes. She usually makes an imprint
of the cutter on the dough and that's as far as she gets.

After she makes a shape, she always points to
it and says "What's that!"

Trying to use the rolling pin! She does pretty good with it!

A New Toy!

We got Sadie a new play kitchen! She loves it and plays with it all the time now! Its just a cheap one from Walmart - it took me three hours to put together! I guess its a good thing I enjoy doing stuff like that! All of the pieces were still connected in the plastic sheets and you had to snap them apart and put them together. It took forever, but it was worth it to see Sadie's face when she woke up the next morning and saw it. It was priceless!

Here it is, brand new, never been played with!

Sadie playing with it! Notice she knows exactly how to work the
microwave - I don't know who she learned that from, I always
cook our meals from scratch! ;)

We found the perfect spot for it between the
kitchen counter and the back door.

Finger Painting

I tried out a finger paint recipe for Sadie a couple of weeks ago and it turned out really well. This is the first time she's ever done it. She liked it though. She was concentrating so hard on what she was doing though, she didn't hardly make a sound the whole time! Here's the video of her fun!

Rain Storm

We had a big rainstorm last month and I'm just now getting to posting the cute video of it. I had just taken Sadie outside to play when it started to rain, so we just stayed out there and she played in it and had a good time!

This is what she did when it stopped raining!

And here's the end result!

Happy Birthday Tanner!

Tanner's birthday was a couple of days ago! He's 27 now! Woohoo! Getting to be an old man :) He had the day off so we had fun, just relaxing and spending time together. We went out to eat and rented some movies to watch and got an ice cream cake. Then the next day we had somebody watch Sadie so we could go see "The Time Traveler's Wife" at the theater. It was really nice! Here are some pics!

The birthday boy!


The birthday banner Sadie and I made him.
I printed it out and she colored it - it was cute!


Sadie and her daddy at the restaurant being silly!

Sadie got her own little drink of fruit punch!
She loved it and got it everywhere!

We got an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen for dessert! Yummy!

Big Girl Bed

Sadie's in a big girl bed! She climbed out of her crib a week or so ago, so we took it down and had her sleeping on her mattress on the floor until today, when we got her a toddler bed! Its so cute but I can't believe she's so big already! I thought the side rails on it would be longer though, so hopefully she learns to stay in it and not fall out! She moves around a LOT when she sleeps, so we'll see. When she slept on her mattress on the floor I had to put her toybox and some of her larger toys around it so she wouldnt' be rolling all over her room throughout the night - which she did a couple of times! Hopefully she'll sleep well in her new bed!
