What's New


So it's been a while again. We have had a rough August. Mommy and Sarah have both been sick. Sarah ended up with pneumonia, and was literally sick for 3 weeks. She is doing much better though, still congested but the doc says that will just take some time. Sarah's new accomplishments include blowing her nose with tissues, washing and drying her hands, climbing (gasp) on the fireplace mantle and other various make Mommy and Daddy extremely nervous "things", opening doors using the doorknob (another gasp), picking her own drink from the fridge (water, juice or milk), putting her blanket on Jake and "cuddling" with him and waving goodbye and blowing kisses to everyone. She talks ALL the time, though most of it still doesn't make complete sense to anyone but her. The list goes on and on. Everyday seems to bring countless new things, just too many to blog about. I think all in all we will be glad when it is September, kind of like a fresh start. We have decided to retire Sarah's favorite foods as it's time has come and gone. New blog layout and look is in the works, no promises though, as we have become kind of attached to our blog. Hope everyone is doing well! Thanks to Mommy for filling in with some posts of her own! Here are a few pics of Sarah on the mantle, at least she is sitting down, she usually walks to the end, grabs a hand, and takes a "leap of faith"!
