thankful

I have always had so much to be thankful for. It is nice to take some time to remember and enjoy them all. To list just a few

I am so thankful for my own little family I just love them!

For a husband who is so motivated and works so hard and puts in some long days.

To be a mom staying home with Sadie everyday & just doing pretty much whatever we want.

For great families that are so close and we get to visit them often.
For the basics in life (house, food, clothes) there are so many that go without or have lost them.

I AM GRATEFUL
everyday.

JAMES & SADIE

It was meant to be an ode to James & Sadie. I realized the few pictures I took this weekend were of them. These 2 are so cute together.

Sadie & James are starting to have more in common. James has been so quick to do all the baby things. Sadie is by no means caught up but she is getting closer and they are both starting to realize they have a few things in common and are going to be seeing a lot more of each other so they might as well be friends right?!

Just for fun a few random things about these 2

• both bad sleepers (Lindsay & I have exchanged stories, tips, good nights and bad nights way too often) they are both way better now.
• both have extremely blonde hair
• neither of them have a ton of hair (I know I will be corrected for this YES James definitely has more)
• James is as pasty white as can be and Sadie looks like she basking in the sun all summer
• both have worn dresses see Lindsay latest post
• both were sick yesterday yuck
• right now Sadie eats like a lady, James like a total boy
• both make some funny crazy faces
  
• both love having baths and playing in the water
  

It is fun to see what James is up to because it makes me see what will come next for Sadie, which is exciting & also makes me enjoy some phases just a little more.

• This is James' awesome face that totally cracks me up
  

Sadie's nose crinkle face (I think I'll being seeing a lot more of this one)

a sweet moment of sharing

As soon as we got to my parents James was already there he walked on over saying "saDDiee, SaDDieee, Sadddiee. and totally checks out her shoes, her shirt and gives her a hug. I love it I hope he always looks out for her you know in a big brother sort of way. They played together which meant actually sitting and playing sometimes or him bringing her some toys, them battling it out for the same toy (sadie not giving in). James occasionally slowing down trying to hold her hand to help her learn to walk. Aren't this two so cute?

I love not a toy in the tub and they are as happy as can be.

I'm excited these guys are coming up for a visit tomorrow, I just don't think we could EVER get sick of them.
