One Landes Place

Oh Sarabeth , how you make me laugh! Lately you have been such a little monkey. You will climb on, over and under anything! Yesterday you climbed into the laundry basket while I was folding clothes. Then I found you wedged between the couch and the wall. Regularly you are found under your exersaucer . Daddy and I love to lay in the floor with you and let you climb all over us! You want to walk so bad. Today you just let go of the couch and tried to take a step. You landed face first on the floor...poor baby! You are a trooper though, you got right back up and tried again! You are making new sounds every day. Your first babble words were da da da da da da . Of course daddy's heart melts because he thinks you are calling for him. This week you started saying ba ba ba ba ba . I can't wait until it's ma ma ma ma! You are learning the word no ma'am. Daddy and I are working hard to keep you safe from the things you love to play with the most, blinds, out...

We took Lindsay to Space Center Houston and to Kemah before she left. I wasn't really into the whole Space Center thing but Matt and Lindsay had a great time. Afterward, we headed over to Kemah and bought an all day pass for the rides. It was about 115 degrees outside but we managed to make it fun. Here are some pics from the weekend with her: Of course this was Matt's idea, she doesn't look amused Sarabeth just kickin ' back and taking it all in I rode this with Lindsay but I didn't want my goofy face on here..so it's Matt's instead This I did not ride...only crazy people on this one. Matt and Lindsay are in the front row on the end. This thing goes all the way upside down and just sits there. I should have had something to catch all the money falling out!

When we were waiting for Matt to get home to leave for Arkansas last week, Sarabeth and I cleaned the kitchen...well she played in the pantry. Here is what happens when I leave my daughter in the room alone for 30 seconds: Yummy chocolate sprinkles. Let me just say that these sprinkles some how multiplied and are now all over the house. I thought I got them all.

Matt and I left Thursday night at 9:00pm on our usual 5 hours trek to his parents' farm in Arkansas. After 2 monster drinks and lots of snoring on my end, we made it...3:30 a.m. Sarabeth was all about being awake at 3:30! She went back down for a little while and was up and at 'em at 6:30a.m.! Matt's brothers Jake and Gabe were visiting with their families as well. It was all in the family for 3 days! The kids played and got really dirty and all I did was eat...seriously. Here are some pictures form the weekend.

Hey! For those of you that are bottle feeding your babies, Babies R Us is taking all bottles that contain Bisphenol -A and will give you full credit toward BPA -Free Bottles. They will give you a voucher and you must use it on BPA Free bottles only. I went today and got the Dr. Browns. Besides Dr. Browns I only saw Evenflo which are very inexpensive (we got 2 packs of those) and Born Free , which are very expensive. In April, the FDA recommended that some products containing Bisphenol -A could be harmful to babies. You can google it and read different opinions. I just heard that Babies R Us was offering this so I took advantage. You never know! Just a little info for you moms out there. Happy 4 th !
