stuck in a laundry basket

okay okay okay i lied when i said the next post would be after her first birthday. today was a funny day and i thought i would write about it. so our laundry area is downstairs and there's a kitty door at the bottom of the door so when i go downstairs to get laundry and other stuff sadie usually follows me but can peek through the door to see where i'm going. usually when she sees me she backs away from the door so i can get out but today as i was trying to open the door with a huge basket of laundry she would kick the door shut with her feet then peek through the kitty door to see if i was still there, then i would tell her to move a little so i could get through, opening the door a tad, then the whole game would start over again. i could hear her laughing and babbling as this went on about two minutes. i didn't want to knock her over so i didn't push very hard. it was pretty cute though. she figured out that i couldn't get out until she moved so she was messing with me. stinker :)

i also uploaded some pictures of her doing her thang lately- pulling as much stuff as she can off of any sort of table or counter. from one of the pictures, you can see her path of destruction, books, dvd's, nothing is safe. she loves exploring, opening drawers and cabinets. there was even a time last week she got stuck in the laundry basket. i'm not sure what she was going for but she leaned over too far and couldn't get herself out of it. my first reaction was to take pictures, not get her out of the predicament she was in.

one more thing she does that i'm trying to capture on tape is to furrow her eyebrows, it started out as a joke that one of the youth ministry kids taught her but i think now she does it because it makes us all crack up laughing. she gives us this look that can only be described as "whatc-you-talkin-bout-willis" it's almost give, seriously mom is that was you are going to wear look, "oh no you didn't" i have yet to get it, but i'm still trying. sadie and i have also been having lots of dance parties, one of these days i will get her shakin' it. happy thanksgiving everyone :) love and peace!
