We like dolls and dirt bikes
This was one day a couple weeks ago when the weather was 20 degrees out and they wanted to ride their bikes and jeep. I stand from the kitchen sink and watch them and they love to see just how close they can get to the road when they turn their bikes around. I think its funny too how Sadie usually has to have a passenger. Its either duck duck or one of her dollies. They did this for an hour one day.
Oh Sadie Bug, You're our funny girl.
GLOVES AND SURROUNDED BY ALL HER "FRIENDS"
Sadie LOVES her gloves. She loves her dollies and her stuffed animals and all her stickers, chap stick, cookies and eating out of her monkey and hello kitty bowl, she loves her "star" cereal. That's what I get for taking them down the Cereal isle at the grocery store. I had a weak moment and bought them Dora cereal.
Sadie likes to burp...out loud. I told her "Sadie, I hope when you have tea with the queen that you don't burp like that"
I definitely think she's our tom boy.
A few things we are working on at the moment:
1)Trying to learn our ABC's..in the correct order. Sadie only likes the L M N O P part.
2)Chew with your mouth closed, don't eat while you are talking, burp with your mouth closed and say excuse me after.
3)Drink your water first thing in the morning
4)Make your bed in the morning
Boy...a few of those don't sound familiar at all, do they ;)

The Cousins Come for a Visit
England and Preston spent the day with their cousins on Saturday. It was a mad house. I also was watching a 14month old for a little bit while his daddy talked to chris in the garage. I forgot how active a 18 month old can be. She kept me hoppin....and into everything. What a precious little personality England has. She is a funny one. Preston is quite the bike rider too. He has a pretty quiet dispositon...at least he did that day:) They were both so good. We played, we watched Nature videos, we played outside in the 20 degree weather(not fun for me), we napped, we practiced our ABC's, we sang, we snacked and we had fun running around.
Enjoyed getting to spend some time with them.

Yup...we've been defeated
Should have known they were smarter than that. It worked well for a couple months. I think it was Sadie that figured it out. We've all been fighting this nasty cough. They had done so good all winter and then I got the flu and then the girls got it. Luckily they didnt get the flu but they did get my nasty cough. Funny how we do things are parents did. I found myself with a glob of Mentholatum on my finger that went up their nose. I'm 34 and I still do that!:) Ahhhh-- It always feels so good.

She sleeps...
Chris caught this rare moment of our little Sadie bug the other morning. Last week I was fighting the flu (NOT FUN with two active three year olds) but I must say they were so good. We just laid around on the couch and watched Disney movies all day. I took a long needed break from the gym and just vegged out with the girls. I must say I really enjoyed it. Luckily I had what is called the mommy flu. Its the kind of flu that really means mom feels awful but life MUST carry on. The laundry still needs folding, the monkey butt powder all over the floor in the bathroom still needs cleaning up, the tortilla chips broken in a zillion pieces in the carpet still need vacuuming, the lunches/snacks and dinner still need to be made, kinda flu! I am so thankful they have not gotten it....yet. I started pumping them with Vitamin C and multivitamins the day after I got it, which I think is usually too late. This particular morning Chris got up with the girls(this flu did give me a three day sleep in ticket)and Sadie seemed not quite herself. Maybe, just maybe it was a little CATNAP was all she needed. When Sadie was little Lara and I use to joke that she literally could probably exist on little catnaps during a 24 hr day cycle. She's usually the first one up in the morning, the last to bed and naps are almost impossible. But sometimes she caves, sometimes she gives in and sometimes she just needs that little extra catnap....and so....this was what we found. Love you Sadie bug!
