Eight years ago today on September 18, 2000 at 5:10am, Sadie Jean Bastinelli came into the world. She weighed 6 pounds, 15.8 ounces and had tons of dark hair. She was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen. And she is now an eight year old girl, still beautiful on the inside and out. Sadie is energetic, kind, funny, spunky, loving and very social. She is the best big sister to Zack and Drew that I could ever have asked for, and she loves her mom and dad fiercely. Sadie loves to play sports, especially softball and soccer, ride horses, play with her dolls and Barbies, ride her bike, sing songs and do arts and crafts. She has a knack for noticing very small details about people (how they are dressed, hair, jewelry, mannerisms) and it will be fun to see how this unique trait is used later in her life. She loves to talk about Jesus and is sad that she goes to a school where God cannot be mentioned. Tony and I are so proud of the young lady she is becoming and we continue to pray that God uses her for His plan through her entire life. We love you Sadie!
Here is a special sneak peek at the last 8 years of Sadie's life.

Ah, I love it!! I can't believe she's already 8 - she's a beautiful girl, and you two have done a wonderful job raising her to be just that. I still remember you calling me telling me you were pregnant, on your way to the hospital, and finally that little Sadie had arrived! Man, how time flies. :) Fabulous job with the slideshow - you know what is really funny? I recognize some of those clothes as clothes that were in Emma's drawers a year or so ago. :) Looking forward to watching her continue to grow into the woman she will become. Happy Birthday Sadie!

Elissa,
I can't believe it's been 8 years already! You have a very beautiful daughter. Loved the slide show.
Ok, make me cry! It just kept thinking, "it goes TOO fast!" I am sure you agree.
What an absolutely beautiful and amazing girl you have Elissa! I can tell what a blessing she is in your life. Uh oh, tearing up here...I've only known Sadie for a while, so it was so nice to see pics of her when she was younger. Happy Birthday Sadie (a little late!)
