Longest Post or Greatest Post?

Sarah goes crazy being inside all day so even if it's cold, we go out for a few minutes. She's still getting used to walking outside on uneven ground but she loves every second of it.

She feels it's her civic duty to pick up any stray rocks and put them back where they belong. Why do kids love rocks so much?

Last Friday we went to Jumping Jack's for Kenzie's daughter Malea's 2nd birthday. Sarah would have gotten trampled so we stuck to the entrances.


But she had the most fun running along the floor. This might be how we finish our basement.

Along with scissors and food--women, falling down and men with boys are not allowed.

On to Valentine's day. Justin made me dinner. It was hot.



I made Justin cinnamon rolls. They smelled and looked better than they tasted.

The Towel Bandit rode thru my kitchen yesterday. She cleaned out the drawer and was off again.

Typical Sarah. She packs her milk around all day. (The Towel Bandit struck again)

Milk? Check. Tiny box of floss? Check.

Sarah suddenly started doing actions to the songs we sing all the time. I'm not sure if this was the song her actions go to but it was still cute.

And I love how she does Peek-a-Boo. Please no one try to correct her.

Sarah can get away with anything while I'm fixing dinner.

And I'm beginning to think she knows it. I swept twice and a third time wouldn't have hurt.

Sometimes I take Sarah's picture and she looks so grown up. It's like a sneak peek at the future Sarah.

And then she's all baby again.

Yes, that's the remote in her hand. She doesn't hit the trail without it.

No, I'm not a licensed hair-cutter.

I cut Sarah's hair today and instantly regretted it. I had been thinking about it for awhile and it needed to be done. (The back center was thinner and shorter from her bald spot.) I took off more than I had planned since cutting a 1-year-old's hair acurately is nearly impossible and it's going to take some getting used to. I miss her piggy tails. And it's taken months off her age. She looks 10 months again. But her hair grows fast so I know by the summer, she'll be all pig-tailed again. Of course, she had no idea even as I was cutting it nor has noticed a difference....other than being annoyed that I've touched her head like 100 times since.

Luckily she has a pretty face.
