Sadie has had a fever, cough and cold for the last four days. Our usually goofy girl would lie listless on the floor and moan. She has vomited on us, peed on us and has used us a human snot rag. If that's not love and bonding, than I don't know what is. It was pretty scary when her fever would spike but modern medicine has brought us all some comfort as did our pediatrician and friends. And then I got sick too. I think I'm a day behind Sadie in getting better. In our attempt to divert Sadie from her sickness, we took walks in the neighorhood and introduced her to PBS. Hey, when you sick, there are no rules. She wasn't that interested in the TV but she now knows how to use the remote. She also helped make Greg's first Father's Day card. Her handprint looks very nice. I'm going to keep this entry short. I'm feeling the need to lie on the floor and moan a bit like Sadie.
Sadie's Top Favorite Things To Do So Far
1. Eat cheerios from a cup, the table, the floor, the seat of her stroller, etc.
2. Eat veggie booty.
3. Get up on the couch and fall backwards into the unknown.
4. Take a bath and then roll around on the bed, stretch and giggle. It's extra special if she can hold her diaper ointment tube while doing this.
5. Look at dogs. All sizes and breeds.
6. Watch older kids.
7. Hold a cell phone up to her ear and babble.
8. Play with the remote. She really likes the blue button. I hope she's not ordering movies...
9. Look at her book about babies.
10. Chew on her toes.

Jackie and Greg,
I just love checking in every couple of days to the Sadie site to see what is new with your critter! Thank you guys so much for creating this for all of your friends that are so thrilled for news of your sweet family. Sadie is so so so cute...what an angel. And your descriptions of parenthood are hysterical and vivid - I love the diaper debacle!! You're right - Elmo should go in front for heck's sake.
Even though I am sure you two are elated, but wasted, please keep up with your Sadie site. It is beyond great.
I can't wait to see you ALL in a few weeks!
love kelly
Jackie and Greg,

Hey Jackie,
I hope it is ok saying hello. Livia and I were talking about old PS 15ers and you came up. She said you were doing fine. I am happy for you and for your new addition. Do not worry so much about the events of this child. You will see that your love will get you through all and it is a test of love too. Life really changes when a baby comes into the picture. But what a lucky baby this is to have you. God bless you all.
Take care,
John
