Family Time

Once again it has been a very long time since I have posted anything. Time seems to fly by. Mike has just about completed his job in Salmon and last week we had him home for the first time in five months. Sadie loves having her daddy home to play rough with. We are just grateful that Mike still has a job when many do not. Sadie is definately in her terrible twos or terrific twos depending on the day. Some days I feel like all I do is chase Sadie around and clean up her messes while she is making the next mess. She seems to know what she is not supose to get into. Sadie is very bossy and likes to tell Mike and I or anyone around what to do. She has had alot of fun interacting with her new cousin and helpin take care of her. Whenever Twylie cries Sadie says "Sh, Its alright I'm here"as she rubs her head. Being her mother is one of the greatest joys but also the greatest challenge. We have also been busy making Christmas presents as a family, trying to give more meaningful gifts. It has been alot of work but also fun working together.
