Scooter Mania!!

I know I'm a little behind in blogging, so much happening so little time!

So a couple of weeks ago I found the most adorable little scooter for Sadie. She's been asking me ALL summer for a scooter or a bike and I just didn't find the right one. So finally, (at the END of the summer, of course) I found the perfect princess scooter! And the cool helmet elbow knee-pad set to match. We spent some time putting it together and then it was outside we went.


She is SOOOO proud of her new scooter! She carried it all around the house and asked if she could sleep with it in her bed! For several days the scooter was ALWAYS in her sight. And if ever she wanted to ride, she HAD to have all the gear on!

So then while riding, the greatest thing happened. She was scooting along, when out of the blue she pushed off with one foot and with the other did a beautiful arabesque! (for those of you who aren't up on the dance terms, that's balancing with one leg extended behind you)

I can't tell you how proud I was to see the little dancer in her!! I'm looking forward to her 3rd birthday when I can officially enroll her in dance class. She's a natural already.

So even though today was a RAINY day...I look back on this fun day and smile! :) Sadie is my little ray of sunshine. She scoots sunshine right into my heart! Don't ya just love her?

P.S. Thanks Robyn for helping me remember I needed to blog about this today!

Yeah...I'm impressed with the arabesque! She looks so stinkin' grown up in that first picture. What happened to your cute little chubby baby? She's almost THREE! Yikes! I love all the pink, princess gear, too. Girls are so fun! She'll be the cutest little dancer.
