So, what have we been up to???

Sadie turned 1! She got her own cupcake and enjoyed pretty much every morsel. At first she didn't know what to do with it, but when she discovered it tasted pretty good, it was a feast!

Sadie got a baby doll for her birthday. I handed it to her one day in Wal-mart to keep her happy while Isaac was looking at toys. She cried when I took it away to put it back. So I let her keep it and when she got tired of it, I wrapped it. She was so happy to see it when she unwrapped it. She calls it "baby" and loves to hug it and carry it with her.

Sadie started to walk about a week after seeing her cousin walking at their birthday party. It was like "hey, I can do that!" and so she did.

She now has enough hair to style and so far she is pretty good about holding still as I style it. She loves her pretty hair (so does her mom).

Isaac continues to love school and was devestated the few times that we had a snow day.

Isaac and Ty go to the Lowe's Build and Gro sessions every other week or so. Isaac enjoys building things (we've collected quite the stash of handmade gadgets and toys) He gets a patch to put on his apron. We are on our second apron.

Isaac has become quite the little puzzler. He LOVES to do puzzles. We started him on the small 24 piece puzzles. He is now to the more complicated 100 piece puzzles. He needs a little help the first time he puts it together and then he'll take it apart and put it together again and again and again.

He also got to go with his dad one Saturday and spend some time with some firefighters. They let the kids try on their fire suits and hats AND ride on the fire truck. He had a blast.

I have continued quilting. I really do love it and love that it is "quiet time" for me. In fact, Isaac has said to me on a number of occasions "Mom, it is a good day to sew". I had to agree.
