fall

it seems longer than just two weeks ago that i posted anything about our dear sweetie sade. this might sound redundant but she really does change so much even in a week. today i discovered that when josh puts her on the ground with her bottle she can hold it herself, something she's been doing for almost a month, i however just found out today. sade also is a pro now at standing up, something she really just started to do yesterday. she loves to crawl out in to kitchen, even when the lights are off. we are discovering our litlte baby girl has no fear, or at least we haven't seen it yet. next door at grandma and grandpa wilsons they have a toy bear that sammy (sadie's cousin who is 2) used to cry and cry at when it was turned on, sadie on the other hand tried to kiss it tonight. she's happy 99% of the time (unless of course there's a meal around the corner, then watch out!). on thursday when i took her to day care, she started squirming to get out of my arms to get inside the room, then when i opened the door she laughed and laughed. no matter where she is, she loves being there. she is playing shy lately. anytime she sees someone new, whether its someone she's seen two minutes before or never, she puts her head into my chest and plays coy. that stinker :) ten minutes later, she's won everyone over and they love her.

when sade was over at grandma and grandpa flaherty's today, grandma run upstairs to get something only to discover that sade had climbed to the third step, yes the third. she's a daredevil already. she's becoming more and more verbal, mostly just momma right now, but also babbles quite a bit, especially when she's calming herself down to sleep.

sadie is very excited for halloween, we are still trying to figure out the perfect costume for her.
she still loves the dog more than any of us, and is getting really quick on her knees chasing him, it won't be long before he will have to find better hiding spots than the top of the couch.
