Sadie's 3rd birthday is coming up. She's cracking us up constantly. She must think we are total geeks because sometimes she comes up with things and we just look at her like "holy crap! that's OUR kid!"
While eating dinner the other night, Sadie points to Peter and says "daddy you have stripes and mommy doesn't." It took us awhile to figure out what she meant, neither one of us had stripes on that day. When asked to explain, Sadie points to Peter's forehead and says "daddy has stripes and mommy doesn't." ooooooooops!
Mookie and Pop-pop came for a visit and when asked what the name of her giraffe was Sadie replied "shaki-pani-poo."
On another night at dinner we happened to be listening to Bruce Springsteen. Peter says, "Sades, do you know who this is? This is The Boss, he's from NJ." So naturally she replied "the boss? do you work with him?"
My cousin got married in September in AZ. Sadie was so excited to go because she got to wear a pretty dress and mommy and daddy dressed up too. She thought the bride was going to be Cinderella. She still talks about it.
Originally for Halloween, Sadie wanted to be Glinda from Wizard of OZ because she had a big dress, sparkly crown and over sized wand. Then she found a dress at the store and insisted on having that. I was all set to make her costume but came to my senses and realized buying one was probably faster and more economical. She Sadie dressed up as Belle from Beauty and the Beast.
We had purchased a crown and wand for her to carry too but on Halloween day she said she only wanted her sunglasses because "real princesses wear sunglasses and not crowns."
Our kid is REALLY girlie. She only wears dresses, preferably tutus. Everything is either "beautiful" or "wonderful" or "gorgeous." All women are princesses. If Sadie sees a woman on the street in high heels she just about jumps on top of her to let her know that she loves them.
It's really fun to watch the evolution of drawing skills too. Things are becoming more obvious and the stories that go with the drawings are becoming more complex. Our walls are filled with paintings and drawings. I can't wait to see what happens when Sadie finally goes to school!
If you haven't heard yet, we are moving. AGAIN. 5 times in 7 years. Pretty funny, right?
Sadie's gonna be a city kid!
enjoy!
xoxo

That whole bit above gave me the heartiest laugh out loud. Good thing I'm alone at the moment!
I love this kid.
