Bath time sillies!

Adam took these pics of Sadie the other evening, when I was at a movie with my Mom. Sadie is always so silly during bath time, but I think he captured a good little slice. Not too much going on with us. We had a nice long weekend. Adam went down to Tampa with Bobby, to a baseball game (devil rays v the white sox). They had a great time, Adam got an autograph from John Jaso. Since Adam was going to be gone until very late Saturday night, Sadie and I went down to Ocala and stayed the night at Mama & Papa's house. It was so nice being down there and visiting with them. I haven't spent the night down there in a long time! Sadie had a great time getting spoiled (as grandparents are supposed to do!). Saturday (before Adam left, we drove down to Jacksonville and bought Sadie a plastic playhouse (I found it on craig's list). We got it for a real bargain and it's in great condition. Adam put it together last night and Sadie loves it. I haven't gotten any pics of her in it yet but I will try to tomorrow. I love craig's list. We got a new, real wood entertainment center off of there a couple of weeks ago! Sunday we went to a BBQ at Adam's parent's house and got to visit with all of them and Monday Adam worked, so Sadie and I just hung out. I went through her closet and took out all of the stuff that doesn't fit and re organized everything. Later we finger painted. That was awesome!! Other than that we just hung out. Very nice! Back to work today. Things were a little crazy since we were closed yesterday and it's the 1st!! It made the day go by fast, it wasn't too bad though, just a lot of phone calls to return and things to follow up on from the weekend, plus all my Monday morning stuff I have to do! I got caught up and had time to do a couple of extra things!

Adam is still looking all over for a job (he has his same job, just one with his new degree!). I hope he is able to find something that he will enjoy and can be happy at. Hope everyone had a safe, fun long weekend. Enjoy the 4 day work week!! Loves.

Fun Saturday

Yes, I know, there are a lot of pics from this weekend. Photobucket is being weird again so I just posted them all like this! Saturday morning one of my best friends (Jenn) had her baby shower. Unfortunately I only got one pic of she and our other best friend Vanessa. The baby shower was so much fun. It was so great to see Jenn open all of her wonderful gifts and see her mother (who is such a fantastic woman) and laugh and have a good time. Right after the shower, one of my other best friends (since high school) got married!!! Kristin and Benny had their wedding in an airplane hanger and it was so awesome. They put everything together themselves and it looked fantastic. She asked me to do the flowers, so I made her bouquet, 2 boutonnieres and a pomander flower ball. They turned out pretty well. The wedding was super fun too. Sadie enjoyed playing with Benny's daughter Ciara (they've played together before). Ciara was pushing Sadie around in her stroller and taking her on walks and dancing with her. It was so cute. After the wedding we just came home and hung out. Today we just ran a couple of errands and enjoyed not having anything planned. We took Sadie to the museum and walked around. Other than that today was pretty uneventful. Although, we did get to have breakfast and dinner with Adam's mom and that was really nice. We haven't seen her in a few weeks so it was nice to catch up (and talk about Grey's anatomy, which we both love!). Sadie is in bed now and Adam is watching tv. This week will hopefully be low key and then next weekend is a long weekend. And (Mom, don't forget) Thursday, a movie I am VERY excited about opens!!!! Mom and I are going to have a girls night and see it. Anyways. Hope everyone has a great week. Loves.

Sadie snack

Just wanted to post some pics of Sadie's cutie pie hair. I took these this evening. Adam had taken the dress she wore to school off because she had melted marshmallow all over it. I was kind of like "hmmm...they give you marshmallows at school?" Wouldn't be my first choice! Anyhow, we are all well. Adam is hanging out with his friend Bobby tonight and Sadie just went to bed. Mommy time! I was trying to put some songs on my ipod but it's frozen or something. It doesn't even show up as connected to the computer but the ipod screen is frozen like it is. Weird. Hopefully Adam can fix it for me. Hope everyone out there is doing well. Nothing too exciting to report (this is a good thing!). It's almost Friday! Woo Hoo!! I'm actually off this weekend. I have a baby shower on Saturday morning (my friend Jenn), a wedding Saturday afternoon (Kiki & Benny) which I am doing the flowers for (and am thrilled I was asked!). Then, Sunday, we may go to Animal Kingdom. We have 1 day left on our passes and they expire on Tuesday so it's now or never! (or at least until we get passes again). We'll see how it goes. Loves to all y'all.

Picture post...2nd post below, keep scrolling!

All about hair

So...today when Sadie woke up, her hair was plastered to her face with snot. She had a huge rat's nest in the back of her head and would not keep in the pig tails I kept trying to put up. Sadie had her first hair cut. It's a little shorter than what I wanted but it'll grow. Now, I know some of you out there are thinking 'oh, no!!', but I think, for the summer, this will be better for her. She is so hot natured and won't keep her hair up. We needed to do something. She seems to like it. She kept shaking her head around to make it fluff and smiling. We forgot the camera when we took her to get it cut. But, we went to my Dad and Carrie's house this afternoon and got some pics. They bought a turtle sandbox for her to play in at their house. After she played in that for a while we went swimming. We ate some delicious burgers on (Dad grilled) and went for a walk around the neighborhood. It was nice. I feel like I need another day off. I worked 6 days, off today and work 5 this week! I am tired. I have a baby shower and wedding this upcoming weekend and am making the flowers for the wedding! I am really excited about that. Work is going well, busy, but well. Adam is applying for multiple jobs every evening all over the country. It'll be interesting to see where we end up. I have tons of pics to post from last weekend (when we went to Disney, again, and Epcot). But, I'm not sure if I'll get them posted tonight. I wanted to get these up since she looks so cute with her new hair do! Sadie has been sick with a sinus infection. She was sick last weekend at Disney and Epcot but she mostly rode in her stroller was carried or was on a ride so she did fine. As soon as my insurance kicks in we plan to take her to see an ENT doctor. After thinking about it and talking with both of my parents I am convinced that she wouldn't have so many problems with breathing if we had her adenoids and possibly tonsils) taken out. From what I've heard, I had the same problems when I was her age and the procedures greatly helped me. I also want to talk to them about her ears. She still falls over easily and looses her balance and if you watch her you can see it's her equilibrium. She just has too much fluid in that little head. But, hopefully we will get that taken care of soon! I love that kid to pieces. Well, I will try and get those other pics posted. Loves.

Fun Sunday :)

Wow! what a fun Sunday! We went over to Cresent beach and St. Augustine today. Luckily it was kind of overcast so it wasn't too hot, it was nice. Sadie had tons of fun playing in the sand. The water was a little cold but we sat down in the very shallow area and played a little. Adam and I played pro kadima and Sadie ran back and forth trying to get the ball. We only stayed at the beach for about 3 hours, then we went in to St. Augustine. Admission to Castillo de San Marco is free this week and I haven't been in a long time; Adam had never been. It was really neat to see all of the history. It's amazing that the fort has been there so long and withstood so much. Sadie had fun running around. She went through this little door into an old ammo room (it was part of the tour if you wanted to crawl through). We saw them set off the cannons a couple of times and looked at all the neat stuff. It was a blast. After that we got some lunch and walked around in the old town. Sadie even got some of my ice cream. We got home about 6:30 and kind of just relaxed. Sadie went to bed and we start the week all over again! This coming weekend, Adam and I are staying at his parents to watch their dog. The whole family will be in Chicago for Adam's cousin's bat mitzvah. Unfortunately we are not able to go so we get to be on dog sitting duty! Maybe we'll do something fun next Sunday! Nighty night! Loves.

DISNEY!!!!!!

Photobucket is being weird and is driving me crazy so I uploaded all the good pics from Disney like this. We went last Sunday and had a great time. It was kinda crowded (spring breakers) so we only stayed from open until about 2:30. It was enough time to do pretty much everything we wanted to. Sadie did not like snow white or the peter pan ride. She was totally freaking out! She loved it's a small world and pirates of the Caribbean (except for the dark drop). I thought she was going to freak out on the haunted mansion but she fell totally asleep! (dead asleep...lol). We had a great time though. We still have 3 more days on our passes so we plan to go to animal kingdom and Epcot and maybe Disney again. I have never been to Epcot so I'm looking forward to that and I think Sadie will like all the animals at animal kingdom. We did miss the pooh ride and the jungle cruise. There was like 60 minutes wait times! We'll get them next time. Other than that nothing too exciting going on. We are going to try and go to the beach tomorrow and also the fort in St. Augustine. It's "national parks week" so admission is free! Unfortunately it is 11:54 pm and I haven't started packing up or organizing...so we'll see what happens! Nighty night!

It's spring!!

Yes, it's been a long time since I've posted. It's been craziness in the Shugan household!! I started my new job almost 2 weeks ago. It's been very busy and these 2 weeks have flown by but I'm enjoying myself. It's weird getting used to the way a company does stuff when you're used to doing and saying certain things (policies & procedures...even answering the phone!). Adam is almost done with school (knock on wood) He submitted the final draft of his thesis and is waiting for his final grade. He applied for a couple of jobs here in Gainesville. Now that he is done with his thesis he is going to apply elsewhere. We have both been looking for jobs for him around here but there's not a lot open. We kinda knew that this would be a possibility. We'll see what happens. I'm not making plans for anything besides what is happening this minute and within the foreseeable future! We still haven't been able to go to Disney with our passes. I was sick and so we weren't able to go, we were going to go this weekend but the part time person that works weekends is no longer employed there so that didn't work out. I told Adam, by the time we get to use them they will have expired! We are talking about going next weekend but I'm just gonna wait to even try and plan it! Don't wanna jinx it. The weekend of April 24-25 Adam's family will be in Chicago for his cousin's bat mitzvah (we'll be staying at their house to watch the dog :/ ) then the next weekend is Elliot's graduation in Tallahassee. Adam is definitely going, I'm not sure if I am. It depends on if I have to keep helping out on Saturdays.

We talked about renting a house. We found one right across the street from my friend Kristin. We really liked it and it would've been awesome to live across the street from Kiki and Benny. In the end, though, we decided to stay where we are. We would've had to pay deposits and all the jazz. Plus, if we do end up having to move we don't want to have any issues with getting out of a lease. At least if we do need to break our lease, we already know the breakage fees where we currently live. That makes it a little easier. Plus, I don't want to move again unless it's to a house we are either buying or a rental house we plan on staying in for the next few years...

Sadie is doing well. Her allergies are crazy right now but she is in great spirits. They had a "yay Sadie's walking" party for her at daycare (their idea). I made mini cupcakes for the kids and asked them to take pics. We took her to the butterfly garden on Easter and she had a GREAT time. She loved all the birds and butterflies. It was kind of crowded, so we'll have to go back some other time. I told Adam we should've gotten married there! It's so neat. Other than that she's just been playing and being a silly little monkey. She has been pee peeing in her potty. Not consistently but a lot. I think It'll be easier when she goes to the 2 year old class. They don't potty training until that class at daycare.

Well, I'll try to post again soon. Luckily not too much exciting stuff happens to us. I hope we'll get to go to Disney soon!

Miss Attitide!!

Here a couple of cute pics of Sadie from this past weekend. She threw up at school this past Thursday, so she stayed home on Friday (my Mom watched her-thanks Mom) and I was off on Saturday and Adam was with her Sunday (I worked). So she got lots of love and rest. We took this Saturday afternoon when she was starting to perk up. I love her facial expressions in both pics. Adam is going to Sebring this weekend with Ross and Elliot for the 12 hour Lemans race so it'll just be us girls this weekend. I work Saturday but we'll hang out after and snuggle! I re-decorated Sadie's bathroom, it's really cute. I have a couple more things to do so I'll post pics soon! Loves
