And just like that our beautiful baby girl is 6 months old! In a year or so, I'll forget she even looked like this, she changes so fast. I say that, b/c I like to pull up Blake's picture of the same month to compare how they look and I can hardly remember him looking like that, although I do recall his 6 month photos not looking completely like him...maybe it was the outfit.

| Our little Sadie Jane at 6 months old!!!! |
 |
| Her classic move--pushing the butt up so she ends up slumping. Why do you do this Sadie?? |
 |
| And her classic look--sucking the lower lip |
 |
| Love this picture of her :) |
 |
| She also likes to grab her feet :) |
Well, I'm kind of exhausted today, so I'm sitting at the computer blogging when I should be answering e-mails...oh well. I like to blog on Sadie's month birthdays. :) I think I'm so tired b/c this weekend, for the first time in my life, I held a garage sale. Yep, never really thought I'd have enough stuff to do one, and still didn't really, so I invited my neighbor to do it with me. She held one several weekends last year, so thought I'd check with her. Turns out she was delighted to participate and tends to collect stuff to sell, so she had plenty to add. Our neighborhood was holding their annual garage sale for the neighborhood, so most of the advertising was done for us. I manned the sale on Friday, when it was cold and windy, and Linda got Saturday, when it was beautiful and sunny. :) I ended up staying outside with her a lot of the time b/c I just loved being outside (plus, she had to leave a couple times, so I had a couple shifts). We had good traffic and it was nice to get rid of some clutter. I also made homemade cinnamon rolls and cupcakes to sell, so that was kind of fun, but also added more work. Ended up adding a couple things to our stash and I couldn't say no to Blake on buying 4 of Linda's toys (a plastic tractor with loader, 2 plastic dump trucks, and an police SUV). They were $1 a piece, so I bartered with her for my cinnamon rolls for two of them, since she had mentioned buying me out at the end of the sale b/c she was enjoying them so much :) Glad she liked them!
I had been collecting my "donations" in one area and never actually donated them b/c we couldn't itemize on our tax return so I figured I'd wait until the next calendar year. Then I decided, why not give a garage sale a try, but I only did it b/c Linda went in with me, plus it made it more fun that way.
I was kind of surprised at what sold and what didn't...but overall, it was quite successful. :)
Ok, so back to the kiddos and then I've got to get back to being productive b/c my brother and his family will be here in a few hours and I need to get their room ready, tidy up a bit, and go grocery shopping...fun. ;)
So, Blake and Sadie at 6 months :)
Well, they both have about the same amount of hair, and about the same color as well (I think Blake's was lighter at this point), although Blake was born with a little darker hair than Sadie was, so we'll see :) Scott never had dark hair, and I never had light hair, but both our kids were born with dark hair and it is coming in lighter, so who knows what they'll end up with as adults!!
Poor Sadie gets company in her crib every once in a while...and sometimes in the morning when she gets woke up by her brother.

| Me & Sadie |

| Blake taking my picture while I was changing Sadie (only a small finger in the way) :) |
And my fun picture for the day. Every night I go in and cover Blake up b/c he usually has no blankets on him by the time he actually falls asleep. Well, this time I had to call Scott in and he insisted on a picture because this is how Blake fell asleep:
 |
| Yep, he's out cold. :) |
Have a great day!!
