Although Sarah was grumpy from teeth coming is (still) and perhaps some terrible twos, she did make some leaps and bounds in terms of words she can now say and things she can do.
I call this the week of 'yummy' because she says it all the time - particularly when food is involved. She doesn't just say 'yummy', though - she says, 'yummy, yummy, yummy' just like the Swedish chef on the Muppets. I'm not sure where she got it from, but it's sure funny.
She's also learned to pull a door closed using the handle (but still can't open it, luckily) and to blow bubbles in the bath. She also now says 'eyes', 'all done' (at the same time as she does the sign which is waving her hands around in the air) and she can now say 'apple' (which sounds like ah-puh). She has also added the number 'eight' to the other numbers she can already say ('two' and 'six'). Although she's been fascinated with my slippers for some time, she can now successfully wear them and walk in them - watch the video below.
On Saturday Sarah and I went grocery shopping and to the library. Dale went bike hunting. After 18 years it's time for a new one...besides - with the price of gas the way it is, he's decided to ride his bike to work as much as he can when the weather is decent for it.
On Sunday Dale and Sarah went swimming while I did the rpm class (cycling in a class for a hour) at the gym. Apparently Sarah wasn't very interested in following along with what the group was doing in the pool. She wanted to do the opposite. Not too surprising - that's the way she's been all week.
Sarah wanted to go out on the deck this morning to see what there was to see. Right beside Alice the goat was some left over ice so she picked some up...


...and took a bite. Apparently it was good because it got the 'ummm...yummy, yummy, yummy' designation. :o)


While Sarah napped this afternoon Dale went to buy his bike. They didn't have the right size yesterday so they built him one. When he got home, he took little Miss for a quick spin around the block. Here she is checking out the rooster that Auntie Connie and Uncle Ray gave her. When you press on the tail the beak opens and a light shines out of it's mouth and it does the cock-a-doodle-doo sound.
