More pics of Sarah and her BFF Charlotte from the Cruise.

5/25/08

On the cruise, Sarah met her new BFF Charlotte and followed her around everywhere she went. Daddy never heard Sarah squeal so much as when she was with Charlotte.

There was a CCTV camera mounted above the dance floor which broadcast its signal to all the monitors across the dining room downstairs. Daddy held Sarah up to the camera for a few moments while baby made faces. Evidently, she was quite the celebrity when she made her reappearance in the dining room. Joan said everyone "awwwed" when they saw her on the monitors.

Gosh, Granddad, ya'll just got here to visit me today, and you already stuck me in pillow prison. I haven't been that bad, honest (fingers crossed).

This is what Daddy likes to see when he comes home for work - the St. Pauli Girl. Only problem is she's empty handed. It'd be lots better if she had 3 steins of beer in each hand.

We didn't realize it when we bought it, but this reusable elastic bandage package had a baby magnet in it, as so many household objects do, yet this one was stronger than most. Even with a milk bottle next to her, she was still irresistibly drawn to this package.

Sarah loves her singing lion. She grabs the tag on the bottom of the lion and puts it in her mouth to fall asleep. These pics were taken on 5/15/08 & 5/17/08.

Sarah, you're going to put that puzzle back together, right?

Sarah says, "That's what you're for Daddy!"

Sarah and her BFF Mr. Clown. Joan had wanted to give Mr. Clown away in a yard sale we had in April, but no one was interested. So after the yard sale when Joan was packing up the car to take the remainder to Goodwill, Brian salvaged Mr. Clown before Joan could get it. Since then, Sarah & Mr. Clown have lived happily ever after.

Sarah & Mommy went to Kidsfest at Cranes Roost Park. Sarah said, "This is boring & hot. Why don't you bring me back when I'm older so I can play with the other kids? Geez, mom, I'm not even 1 yet."
