Easter And More

Eric — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 15:08:55 +0000

This Easter Sadie enjoyed herself so much more than last year (pretty much because last year she was almost completely immobile…a lot has changed in a year). She knew exactly what to do. Her mommy showed her one time how to put the eggs in the basket and you would have thought she’d been doing it for years! She also found out real quick how to openthe plastic eggs, and that it was in her best interest to open each and every one!

Party Time

In honor of Sadie’s First Birthday Party I have changed our blog up a bit.

For Sadie’s First Birthday we had a Minnie Mouse party with a bunch of Sadie’s friends and cousins. It was a blast, and Jen and I were more excited about throwing Sadie her own party than we’ve ever been about celebrating our own birthdays!

Sadie’s First Birthday, January 28, 2010

It is hard to imagine our lives before Sadie. She is our life now. It is hard to believe that her first birthday has already come and gone. It was not long ago that we were creeping down the freeway bringing home our sweet, tiny little Princess. Now, less tiny, our Princess is sweeter than ever! We made sure to snap lots of pictures on her first birthday:

We had to let Sadie practice tearing into her cake so she would be ready for her birthday party!

She did NOT need the practice. She was a pro.

10 Month Old

Well, time sure is flying! Sadie’s hit 10 months now. She is now crawling, eating real foods (mostly), walking around tables and just as fun as ever! I’ve finally found my long lost video camera so hopefully I’ll be able to start posting videos of her (check back for Sadie’s first Christmas video)!

Here are Christmas card pictures we took with Jen’s parents and brother.

It’s that time again

It must be a new season because another blog post is upon us! Here are some pictures of the family with Grammy who came in from Maine to see her first great-granddaughter and we had a great time visiting with her. Here are some pictures taken while she was here, including a 4-generation picture! Enjoy!

Baby’s First Tooth

Eric — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 16:21:11 +0000

For months now Sadie has been drooling and chewing and showing numerous signs of teething (luckily no(t much) screaming and no fever!) and finally her very first tooth is in! We don’t have photo evidence just yet, it’s only barely pushing through, but you can definitely feel it in all its glory! She got it in last Saturday, the day Jen and I returned from our trip to Cabo! We went down from the 7th through the 12th for my best friend (Jacob) and his wife (Jennifer’s) wedding! The wedding was beautiful (with the beach and the Sea of Cortez for a backdrop, of course it was) and we had a lot of fun. We came home Saturday just in time for Sadie’s Baby Dedication at our church on Sunday! It was such a fun day and I will put up pictures soon!

So cute

Our Little 6-Month Old

Eric — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 20:15:45 +0000

Here are some updated pictures of our 6 month old baby girl (soon to be 7 months old).

Here she is with her little boyfriend Jonas. Jonas is the son of some friends of ours (Joey and Natalie) and was born two days after Sadie just down the hall! He’s her oldest friend!

Here she is being adorable with her mommy holding her (after they just went swimming with Jonas and his mommy).

Here is her Uncle Josh holding her. She has recently discovered her tongue and lips and loves to make noises with them!

And Sadie taking a Daddy Nap. (One of the favorite parts of my day!)

And here she is showing you that she has a belly button!

Picture Dump

I just dumped all the pictures off my camera, which it seems only happens once every couple months. Here is a little bit of foreshadowing to our eventful fireworks show:

This is Julia – Jen’s cousin’s daughter – and her dad (Brian) feeding Sadie (Julie just loved Sadie! Such a natural!)

And here is Sadie taking a Mommy Nap

And this is from a couple weeks ago. We had Sushi night at my brother and sister-in-law’s house a couple of weeks ago where my sister-in-law (Luisa) made us homemade sushi. Not only is it a lot of fun and way cheaper to make it yourself, it tastes great too!

Celebration

Last night we decided to have a small celebration for Sadie’s Half Birthday at our signature restaurant, Margarita and Peppers (this is the restaurant where I asked Jen’s parents for their blessing to marry their daughter, the restaurant we ate at after I proposed to Jen, the restaurant we had our rehearsal dinner, and many other occasions as well). Since Sadie is not old enough to pick Chuck E Cheese or Libby Lu, we chose for her. We even had cake to celebrate (Sadie only had icing).
