Sadie is a nut. Plain and simple, no denying it. We love her like crazy, but there’s no two ways about it–she’s a hilariously goofy kid.
I came upstairs the other night at her request to judge the girls’ costume contest. I’m still not quite sure what prompted the costume contest, but it might just be that the costumes themselves called for a viewing. They had been playing dress up for much of the afternoon. Josie was slow to warm to the idea, stating that she didn’t want to wear a dress! Sadie finally talked her into playing along, but I couldn’t really tell that J was wearing a costume. Lil was dressed like she was headed out to a party. Annabelle donned her Queen dress from Halloween. Sadie…well, she had Lil do her makeup, and I think I’ll let the pics tell the story…
We spent another afternoon at Spring Creek Park. It was warm enough for us to ride bikes down. The young’ns spent most of their time playing on the climbing pieces. Sadie loves the monkeybars, even though she got blisters from hanging on. She tells me that she’s working on her moves, and that she wants to hit the YMCA for some rock climbing soon.
*I have no idea why some of the pics are rotated. They aren’t like that when I load them…
The other day Kim took Sadie to WalMart for some shopping. Sadie went out the door dressed like a nut. I can’t believe that Kim actually let he go out in public looking like this:
As they were checking out, the guy made some comment about Sadie being from another planet. Kim passed that on to her, saying that he thought Sadie was from Mars. Sadie, having just done a report on one of the planets, quickly responded:
“Mom, I’m not from Mars…I’m from Uranus!” *insert maniacal laughter here*
Oh yes, yes, you are.
She wants to go hunting with me next Monday, so I took her to get some gear tonight. She walked into the house wearing her camo gloves and blaze orange hat. She would have worn them all night long if she hadn’t had to practice her cello.
What a piece of work. And she’s all ours!
