Took this picture at the literal crack of dawn at the Keeper of the Plains in Wichita, Ks. This is located at the confluence of the Big and Little Arkansas River. Dawn said I should try to find someone to buy pictures I take like this. She said something to the effect that it looks like a postcard. I wished the clouds had been a bit further off the horizon and I could have taken the picture about 5 minutes later for just a bit more light on the horizon. Unfortunately, the lights that illuminate the keeper were turned off about 4 minutes after this picture was taken.

Sitting and Reading 21/365
Already sitting up and reading books. If you look close (click on the picture and the all sizes link), this is a children's book on pregnancy! One of these days i am going to have to put a brick on her head to keep her from growing!

Priveleged view 20/365
I figured for today I would let you see something that I see and let you see it how I see it. This is what i see when I hold my little baby.
My wife has a couple ideas that we may have to try as we get going further on down the road. If you have any, feel free to get ahold of me by commenting, calling, emailing or however you communicate so I can make it a reality.

Where's Adelaide? 19/365
Addie is the bigger one of the two in case you couldn't tell. I think she has about 1/2 an inch more reach than the doll finally. Nothing fancy today, but it was a busy one.

Price of Admission 18/365
We had some good friends come for a visit tonight. They paid the price of admission, food, and got to hold little Addie. Thanks for the pizza, yummy. Oh, and the good company rocked as well.

First trip to the park 17/365
It was such a nice day, we just had to go to the park and play for awhile.
A few quiet moments 16/365
Shhhh! Actually, when she is sleeping she can sleep through lots of noise. Don't worry, even when I don't get them uploaded right away, I am still snapping pictures of the little one every day.

A Visit from The Great Grandpa 15/365
Addie is two weeks old today and she got a huge gift, a visit from her Great Grandfather. Great Grandpa came bearing choclate, cookies and dollars bills for her sisters. Great Grandpa came claiming to want to see if Addie could talk and showed how ornery us Sauer men could be playing with everyone.

My Friend Flicka (aka My Sis Addie) 14/365
One of the things that Dawn does for school is read chapter books aloud to the kids. Today Anna held her little sister, Adelaide, while Dawn read a couple chapters from, "My Friend Flicka".
Bathtime 13/365 and an outtake
Originally, today's picture was going to be a cute capture of Mary holding Addie:
However, Dawn had a different idea for today, March 12th, and she didn't even realize it. This project isn't just a chance for me to do really cool edited pictures or make things that visually "Pop". Yes, I love to do that kind of thing but this project is about catching the first year of a little girl's life, one frame and one day at a time. Little Adelaide will grow so much over this year. If you are reading things, thank you for following along on the ride. Yep, I couldn't help but catch the first bath.
