Red Rock and Ft. Shirley

This last week was decently slow. Sadie and I ventured onto a local transport to travel to Calibishie, where Red Rock is, on Thursday and then on Friday we walked the 3.5 miles from our apartment all the way to Ft. Shirley. The walk wasn't bad until we entered the park and then, in order to get to the cool buildings and cannons, we had to walk half a mile up a really steep hill made of old cobblestones.

Sadie's vocabulary continues to impress me; there are so many times she'll say something that I had no idea she even knew what it meant, let alone how to say it.  She is really good at carrying on conversations, but it still sounds mostly like babble to me when she talks in her long sentences.  Remember that video, way back, when we first got here and Sadie was moving the cans of food to the floor and back to the shelf? Well, she still does that, but instead of putting the cans on the floor, she sticks them on top of the counter. Yes, that's right, she can reach the top counter.  I need to get better at writing down all of the new, amazing things she discovers.
