the Farm


Sadie had such a good time visiting Ma-ga, Pa-ka, and Auntie at the farm in August. Though we never actually went on a canoe ride, she practiced wearing her life jacket.

young intern




Sadie visited the studio of her friend Laura Paulini in Oakland and had a pretty good time with her colored pencils, and just generally helping out around the studio. She ate lots of plums and apricots from the trees just outside the door.

July 4th BBQ in Astoria




Thanks Jess and Karun for the awesome party. Sadie spent most of her time catching up with her pal Marta which allowed her mom and dad to have some grown up talks (and drinks)

Heating up



These two have been seeing each other since just about birth. Notice how Sadie's kind of giving the evil eye to big kid trying to take Bruno's truck.

Canarsie pier

Sadie had a little glimpse of the Jamaica Bay, some fish, and what boys do for kicks...puzzling I know

the green guerrillas are here!


I'm starting to feel like I am intruding on my daughters social life. Maybe that means there's a social life for me again in the cards.

The Whole Family

Here we are in a rare appearance, together, at the Washington DC zoo. Sadie's great uncle Ira took this picture while she devoured a pint of frozen red dye #5.3 which she did not like sharing with young William her first cousin once removed. Sadie decided that she would like to invite the donkey, the shrew and the golden monkey to her birthday party. She also wants bubbles and balloons.

Take your pick, boy

Sadie and Bruno had a little date on the new highline park last week. You would never know from this picture that they each had like 5 scremaing tantrum/breakdowns. Thanks to Bru's folks for the pix and the grown-up conversation.

10 Years




We spent memorial day weekend at my ten year college reunion. It was a lot like college except Sadie was there. These amazing pictures were taken by the beautiful and talented Hyla Skopitz

Sadie helped her grandma with the gardening the other day.

Sadie's Dream



In the morning upon waking I ask Sadie to write down her dreams. I know it's hard to believe but this was done by her own hand, I didn't help at all. This is what she dreamt last night.

Gloucester

Here is the little photographer herself, a little bit emotional you might notice. And below are the pictures she took all by herself. I showed her how to use my camera.

Two peas in a pod



Sadie and her grandpa (he's the little guy on the left in the B+W photo) are having lunch together and he's teaching her some questionable manners.

Hiding away in the country from the swine flu...

Who's that lovely little Amish girl? That is Sadie in Bow NH hanging out with some girls we don't really know.
