When Life Hands You Lemons...

So Sarah has had a bit of a tough time this weekend...poor baby got her very first bee sting. She was on our bed watching Sesame Street after dinner a couple nights ago and suddenly started screaming. She came out in the living room, and we checked her over, but couldn't figure out why she was screaming. Tim made her a cup and she took it and headed back to our room, still fussing. So I followed her, and sat her back on the bed, and then noticed her foot...her little foot was red and swelling on one side and there was what appeared to be a bite or sting. Problem was, we couldn't find the culprit...until mom went back to the desk and saw a big old bee (turned out to be a queen bee to boot...the thing did NOT want to die!). So we gave her some baby aspirin in her cup and restarted "bird" (what she now calls Sesame Street). Poor baby!
Last night we had dinner at Pizza Hut on our way to a friends' house. Tim gave Sarah the lemon from his ice tea...was quite funny!

Little Monkey

Sarah's new favorite pasttime is to climb up on everything in the house, especially the computer desk to play with all the fascinating gadgets or look out the window (our desk is now in the corner of the window looking out the big window).

Sarah also loves to play and sing. The other day we went to her friend Bradyn's house and she ran all over the place. She also loves to sing along to the "Elmo's World" theme song. We have tried to get her on video singing it a couple of times but she either hasn't sung or won't look at the camera. Hopefully we'll get it soon. In the meantime, here are some pics to hold you over of our little cutie bug.

Time Flies

Wow, time does fly! Sorry I haven't posted in a bit. Sarah is now up and walking...err, running, now. She is a year and a half old and boy is she full of it! She is more in love with Elmo and Sesame Street than ever (today I asked her if she wanted to watch Big Bird and she looked at me and said "bird"). She has lots of new words, including "baby", "eat", "GO GO", and if her brother or sister bother her, "HEY". She also calls Elmo "Mmmmoh".

I took her the other day to get her bangs cut (sniff sniff). I didn't want to, but daddy had been asking for weeks and it was his birthday so we decided to surprise him. To be honest, I don't really care for the cut, but I do like being able to see her big blue eyes. I think that is all for now, will try to post more often now that we have our new computer.
