Sadie’s interest in crafting and design is expanding as of late. To hold her off until her birthday surprise, we got some barrettes and ribbon so that she could make her own hair bows. Lots of discussion centered around the fact that these same bows which cost us about $1 each (maybe) were being sold at the local shop for $8! Let’s hear it for creativity and frugality!
It was called to my attention that we hadn’t made peppermint patties in a while. With a baby shower upcoming, Sadie and I made a batch for the party and then some to keep at home.
Elijah was more than happy to help her lick the bowl.
While waiting on baby shower goodies, Sadie sat down with Mema who showed her how to weave with paper. Sadie was very excited to weave like Mema who is a weaver/fiber artist/artist and stood below one of her creations in this photo.
Loving to write, Sadie often dictates messages and stories which I write on dry-erase boards for her to copy over on her cards or illustrated books. She is slowly learning to recognize words through her writing. Like her mama, the brain seems to be directly connected to the product of her hand.
