Christmas in Utah!

So this is going to be more of a picture update and not really in order, but we had so much fun in Utah for the holidays. We were able to spend about a week and a half there. While there, we got to see Sherlock Holmes and Avatar in 3D (hence the super stylish glasses we are sporting)
I sometimes feel guilty that Dodger does not get to "feel the love" of the blog, but he is still here and we love him.
This is Sadie after she has just eaten. Notice the mess on her face and the "budha belly". Got to love this baby!
This is Sadie's first time eating Peaches. By the looks of it, I think she likes them.
Sadie is quite flexible. See exhibit A below.
Me and the dog taking a nap.
While in Utah, Nate's brother-in-law was able to check Sadie out. He is an Occupational Therapist and tested Sadie. She passed with flying colors. And no, he did not just tell me that because we are family. He also nicknamed her "Fat Slapper".
Sadie with Grandma Fisher. Hanging out at the Christmas party.
We had a Pinata that all the kids, and adults were able to take a swing at. Mmm... Candy!
Nate's parents were extremely nice and told us that we could bring Dodger up for the holidays. It was going to cost quite a bit to put him in a boarding place so we took him. Much to my surprise, he did really really well. He seemed to take a liking to Nate's mom, ironic if you know Nate's mom. :)
Thanks to my sister-in-law Jana, she gave us this awesome food thing. You can put food in it and then Sadie can suck on it and get the flavor out without chocking on pieces. We started with peaches and she really liked it. We have also tried pineapple and a nectarine. She gets really sticky so we like to let her chill in her diaper while she enjoys this new "toy".
Such a cute and happy baby. I can't believe how much I love this little girl!!!!!
Yep, still bald and B-E-A-UTIFUL!
We went over to a my parents church on a Saturday to play broom hockey. It was so much fun and I am not sure why I didn't get pictures of us playing, but I got Simon and Sadie hanging out.
On Christmas, we went over to Aunt Cindy's house for lunch and presents. Thank you to all for the gifts.
Since we stayed with Nate's parents we spent Christmas morning with them. Sadie had a lot of fun opening presents. Really she just liked the sound and feel of the wrapping paper.
Dodger got a BYU football for Christmas. He doesn't look thrilled but he loves it.
Sadie got two sets of new pajamas for christmas. She loves them.
I gave Nate a list of some things that I wanted and he went an got everything without my help. And I have to say that he did a Fantastic job! He got me three pairs of heels and I love them all. I also got some jewelry that I Love!!! Thanks Nate, I love you. (and not just because of the gifts)



Here is Sadie sipping some "slush". Just kidding, she didn't get any. :)
Loves sucking on carrots and celery.

Dinner with the Fisher's. Mmm we had Ham and cheesy potatoes. So so good.

And here is Sadie hanging out in her jumper and you can't tell, but she is starting at the Christmas tree. It seems that she had a good Christmas and we loved being with family. Thank you to everyone for everything.

And yes, in case you did not know, we are moving back to Utah the end of January. Can't wait to come home for good. See you all soon.

Aaaaah! I forgot that I hadn't commented on your blog yet!

I love all these pictures. Sadie is such a fun, content little mama and cute as a button. I know Rajko likes to attack her face and chew on her binky, but we really really enjoy having her over to play with him, haha.

I'm pretty sure I could not be more jealous that you are moving back to Utah. You know that is my dream. But I'm really sad to see you guys go. Besides being our best friends, you also happen to be part of our AZ family. What will I do without you??

I didn't know you had a blog! I'm glad I found it. Your little Sadie is darling. Check out our blog at matt-jenny.blogspot.com. Hopefully we'll be able to keep in better touch now.
