Sarah went to her first school birthday party this weekend. Christopher was turning two and invited both toddler classes. It was in a massive kids entertainment complex but we were just in the inflatables area. We all thought it would be a little less busy and crowded with older kids, but we commandeered one of the smaller ones and all the kids played in there (with some parents).
Being the youngest kid there she did pretty well. By the end she was trying to go to the big inflatables where the boisterous big kids were. I made sure Sarah was wearing socks but didn't think to bring my own. But by the end with her going into the ones with the big kids I had to go to make sure she didn't get smushed. Here are some pictures!

January Excitement
Here are some family updates...
I started a new job this week. So far everyone has been great and the work is interesting. I am glad to be entering this next stage of my career. (Also, loving my weekends in the winter that I didn't get to enjoy before!)
Sarah is a dancing maniac. She can do freeze, wave her little bum around, and twirl. We have started having a dance party at least twice a week.
Sarah had a change at school with teachers (they didn't expand on why). So far with her new teacher (who was already the other toddler afternoon teacher so Sarah already knew her) she has come home super happy ever night. So far so good. This teacher did tell me that Sarah's old teacher had gone and stolen the back up pacifiers that we provided when Sarah has her hour long melt-downs and nothing will stop her. She found them when cleaning up the room. She had already used them during her normal 5pm meltdown. Too funny!
Supposedly, the kids at school like the Wiggles. I have always heard of these creatures but didn't care/want to listen to them. I guess I need to do a test run and order a DVD.
Sad news. Our house that we tried to buy as a short sale came on the market as a foreclosure. Multiple offers and we lost in the bidding process. Very very sad about that since super super insanely strong offer. Hopefully the market heats up with good, well-priced homes in the spring. The upside is that my commute is great and no stress!
Here are a couple of recent pictures!

Doctor Visit
Sarah Stats
31 inches (compared to 30.5 at 12 months)
23.5 lbs
She is in the 50 to 60th percentile in height and weight. She must have had a gross spurt before the last doctor visit and is back to her average self... Her head was closer to the 75 to 80th percentile though....
I told Sarah no shots for this visit but I was wrong. Whoops!!! Also, we were told to cut off from the bottle ASAP. For the most part the temper tantrums have stopped... Nighttime bottle will be the last one to go. We will see how that goes this week!
