happy halloween – a day of many firsts

Sadie wore her first Halloween costume today.  As soon as I heard that the kids were to wear costumes to daycare so they could go trick or treating in the building, I started thinking about options.  I decided pretty quickly what I wanted her to wear – scrubs.  I figured she’d be comfortable and I [...]

sadie is 17 months old!

We celebrated Sadie’s day with a trip to the shoe store for some real shoes.  Until now, Sadie has been wearing mostly Robeez or Pedipeds which are cute but not the most supportive shoes.  Sadie scored 3 new pairs of shoes, some slippers and some socks.

I was the first one in the theater for the first showing on opening day.  Embarrassed?  A little but I loved it.

First trip to Disneyland – September 7th

3 months

We have been a family for 3 months today.  I can’t believe how quickly the time is flying by.  Even though it is hard at times, and I’m dog tired most of the time, becoming Sadie’s mom is the best thing I will EVER do.  She is such a blessing!
