Happy Father's Day Dada

Happy Fathers Day to Dada! We love Mark very much, and think he's a great dad. Of Course she has great grandpas too, but since this is Mark's first father's day we want him to feel special. Unfortunately this weekend he's been working ALL the time so we haven't had a ton of time to hang out, but Sawyer got her time in when she could. As I've said before, I think she is quite a daddy's girl - not too many people can make her laugh and smile like her daddy. Since both Mark and I have been busy with work, we are both looking forward to the upcoming 4th of july holiday so we can spend some time with our girl.

Sawyer-girl has been in a good mood this weekend. We have spent a lot of time playing, and she has spent a lot of time crawling around. Now that she's mobile she doesn't insist on walking ALL the time, but she does still prefer it, I think. Sawyer's crawl makes me laugh - she isn't fully up on her knees yet, so she army crawls on her stomach. She's pretty fast too, but the best part is she really only kicks off with her right foot - the left one just kind of hangs there.

This weekend has been a lot of Sawyer and me time since Mark's been working. On Saturday she came with me to the Museum of Science and Industry to check out the Harry Potter exhibit. We had a date with some of my friends, and Sawyer was really good while we were there. Afterwards we went out to lunch with some friends. We sat outside at lunch, and though we were in the shade it was pretty hot....poor Sawyer did not react well to the heat - she turned increasingly red and hot throughout lunch. When we got home I put her in a cool tub for a swim and then down for a nap. Thankfully she was back to milky white and cool when she woke up.

These are some pictures that we took on Saturday afternoon after the nap. Sawyer loves George and Porter - she typically eats/kisses their noses. She was tackling George for much of our photo shoot. My favorite is the one above where she looks like she got caught doing something she shouldn't...girl has got some great faces.

So not a whole lot else for the weekend. It was hot again today so we mainly just stayed in and cleaned. In between my cleaning, I took a picture of Sawyer taking her nap - i love to see her sleeping. She prefers her tummy and often looks like Mark when she sleeps. Thankfully I took this towards the end of her nap because the flash woke her up...whoops.
