a couple of nights ago sadie was playing nicely by herself while hubby and i watched. of course it was her bedtime so she was extra excited, and when sadie is sleepy she turns into a clown...it's pretty entertaining to watch. she tried to stand up and walk a couple of times, using her popper toy to help support her but the toy didn't offer her enough support for her to take a step. she would fall down after every attempt, and that was the funniest thing in the world to her. she would laugh, and laugh, and laugh so loud. then she turned her attention to her new favorite toy to practice her writing skills. hubby and i use this magna-doodle to introduce new words and shapes to sadie. she likes to mimic us, which i think in pretty AMAZING!
we went to a birthday party yesterday, and while taking pictures i was playing around with the artistic side of my brian. of course aj and sadie were my models. i'm grateful that they don't mind me taking pictures of them because it could be a little annoying having a camera in your face half the day. well, not really since my dad is a photographer, and i grew up loving the camera. anyway, i think i took some pretty good shots. they are going to look great in black and white hanging on my wall.
