Accomplishments!

Sadie has accomplished some new things this past week so I thought I'd mention them.
She FINALLY got her second tooth.
She began to army crawl - which means she hasn't mastered lifting her tummy off the ground while in motion.
And last but not least....she began saying "Uh Oh".
It definitely was a big week for her!

Xactware Party

Mike's work party was at Thanksgiving Point this year. We went to Farm Country and showed Sadie all the farm animals. The turkeys were her favorite only because they gobbled at her and caught her by surprise. We saw horses, pigs, goats, chickens, turkeys and cows. They had a nice dinner for us and after was entertainment. Sadie only made it about 30 minutes into the entertainment and she was out...so we headed home.

Notice our matching Xactware T-shirts, even Sadie got one. (LOL)

Ready for bed!

Fourth of July!

I think we packed in as much Fourth of July celebration possible this year. We all had a good time but we were beat by the time the day was over. We started the day at the parade. Russell and Mike were kind enough to stake out spots the day before so that Sadie's first parade would be a good experience. Thanks guys! We wanted her to see it all, even if she won't remember it. This is the first year in a long time that almost the entire family came to the parade and that made it even more special!

She made it until about 20 minutes before the parade ended. All the excitement wore her out!

After the parade we headed home and had nice long naps to gear up for the second half of our celebration. We had a picnic at the park and then headed to the BYU Bell Tower to watch the fireworks. Believe it or not, Sadie lasted until it was over. She loved the fireworks and wasn't afraid at all. She just watched in amazement and clapped through them all. She was asleep by the time we got home, but I think she had a pretty fun day.
