The Boogie Monster

Well our miss Sadie has a case of the boogie monster, the last few days, almost a week she's been waking up covered in boogers, all over. it got so bad one morning that josh had to cut some boogers out of her hair (i of course wouldn't have gone that route, however he was home i wasn't) i don't have any pictures of our little booger face, i didn't figure that most people would want to see what we see in the morning. usually sadie is standing up in her crib with the hair mashed and sticking to her face, up her nose, all over her cheeks, etc.
one thing we've noticed is that sadie LOVES pens, no matter where we hide them, sadie will find them. she loves to carry them around in her hand, while we are trying to take them from her of course. she also loves batteries, again we aren't sure where she's even finding them, and as closely as we watch her she seems to end up holding onto them while she's crawling.
sade climbs stairs like a pro, one minutes she's sitting (probably holding her batteries or pens) the next she's halfway up the stairs to her room or the bathroom. she loves to empty cabinets, drawers, and any sort of counter or table space. we've learned what we need to to clear out of the room so she won't throw it on the floor. gone are the days we could have a drink on the table near the couch, gone are the days books or writing utensils could lay idle on the floor. we have one busy bumble bee in our house now :)
we've tried really hard to keep up with healthy eating habits, we've noticed that sade will eat just about everything but she doesn't really like corn. today for lunch i strained homeade chicken noodle soup for lunch and she managed to pick out all the other vegetables, meat, and noodle from around the corn. she even started to create a pile. just about everything else she will eat.
one other lesson sade is quickly learning is that she needs to be quicker than the dog. if sadie's holding a piece of food willie will quickly be her best friend, until he gets the food then he goes back to being very wary of her. it's pretty cute.
probably the next time i will write will be for her birthday. wow. it's unbelieveable to think it's already been a year. how blessed we are.
