Pink Motorcycles

Last week we pulled up next to a red motorcycle which sparked the following conversation with Sadie....

Sadie: What's that Mommy?

Me: That's a motorcycle.

Me: What color is it? Red?

Sadie: Sadie like red motorcycles. (she said this while scrunching up her nose and shaking her head, which translates that she DOESN'T like red motorcycles)

Me: Yeah, Mommy doesn't like motorcycles either.

Me: But do you know what I DO like? (I was going to say "I like Sadie!")

Sadie (nodding her head in response): I like PINK motorcycles!

Aaawwwhhh...now we know!

Swimming lessons

We just finished up a week of swim lessons. We did a Parent/Child class at the Monon Center outdoor waterpark. It was fun, fun, fun. By the end, Sadie was willfully jumping into the pool and kicking her legs in the water. She never really warmed up to the idea of blowing bubbles in the water, but we'll keep working on that one. We now have alot of momentum to go through the rest of the summer and enjoy swimming in the pool!

Showing off her certificate....

She thought I needed a closer look....

Very proud!

It's a .......

Or should I say, it's ANOTHER ......

GIRL!

We had our "big" ultrasound today, and besides getting to see our sweet baby, we were able to see that we are most likely having another little girl. We couldn't be happier! Daniel has said in the past that he'd be just fine having all girls because there is nothing he can't do with Sadie (or any other daughters) that he would want to do with a son. I am so excited for Sadie to have a sister to grow up with and have as a best friend. Of course I'm looking forward to going through all of Sadie's clothes that are in storage and getting to buy more girlie things (since the seasons will unfortunately most likely be off for the first year or so)!

Here is a recent pregnancy picture of me. I only took one good maternity profile pic when pregnant with Sadie, and it was when I was 38 weeks pregnant and HUGE. So here's to hoping we get a few more this time to remember and pull out to show when my GIRLS :) are pregnant one day. This picture is from 17 1/2 weeks (I think).

An update in pictures

Here are some pictures from the last month. (excuse the quality on some that were taken with Daniel's phone)

Playing in the rain....

First Wendy's Frosty....






All this water is making me thirsty....





Helping empty the dishwasher, can you tell what dishes she had already helped put up?




A bike ride gone too long...

While helping fold laundry, Sadie ended up with two extra pairs of underwear on, on top of her shorts...

After picking strawberries (though someone really enjoyed eating the strawberries more than picking them)...



And one last picture just because she wanted me to take her picture...





All else is going well here in Indiana. Sadie is officially potty-trained and doing so well! Yay! Pregnancy is going great. We're awaiting our big ultrasound next week and will hopefully know whether Sadie will have a little brother or sister afterward. Other than that, we are enjoying the warmer, longer days and loving being outside. This is really the best time of year! It certainly beats being holed up inside all winter. :)
