Mommy is going to the Castle to fight a dragon....

... that's how I heard it. She sometimes goes to the Castle and she talks to people at a roundtable, like a knight. They discuss important grown-up things. Like President Lincoln's 200th birthday. He must be really old by now. And tired. But anyway, here is a neat video. I learned a lot from it.

I love going to the Castle. It's big and pretty and has cool stuff in it.

It's a GIRL...

... Baby Gorilla at the National Zoo!!! Isn't she cute? The parents are mom Mandera and dad Baraka. They haven't decided on a name yet.

You can see them in the Great Ape House in Washington, DC... but if you can't make it you can check out their website here. You can also learn a little Ape Etiquette too. I need to brush up on mine.

Mellow Music Moment....

*Sigh* It's Wednesday, but I'm thinking of Tuesday. My mommy read her mommy's blog, and afterwards, my mommy started hugging me more and told me how awesome I am. This song makes me feel better about the whole thing. My mommy doesn't know Tuesday's mommy, but she says that doesn't matter. There's a Mommy Club that once you are in it, there's a code to stick together especially when things get really, really tough. Tuesday and I were born around the same time, so my mommy is really sad for her mommy.

*Gasp* I WANT THAT FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

I'm turning the big 2 at the end of March, and I'm on the lookout for cool stuff that is "Sadie-approved". Mom wants to give her two cents, but really, it's MY birthday. Here's my big three:
This is a Baby Blackberry. Nana uses her Blackberry all the time, and I pretend Daddy's travel alarm clock is mine. But this is way cooler. And I learn my alphabet a little better. You can read more about it here. Unfortunately, it may not be out until Summer. But this is so cool, I'll take the raincheck and put my name on a waiting list.

I love Little Missmatched! Mommy says she hates wearing boring stuff to work because she has to look "professional". So, I figure, if I have to look "professional" someday, I might as well have fun now while I'm a kid and can get away with it. At my age, missmatching is "adorable". You can get that missmatchy stuff here.

And everyone knows I love Sesame Street. I can't get enough of Abby Cadabby. Elmo is pretty cool too. Anything you buy at the Sesame Street Workshop helps support programs for little kids like me in other countries. And I think that is really, really cool.
