14 months

 

 

 

 

Its that time again... the 11th seems to come too quickly every month.  Unfortunately for Sarah Grace she has pretty much spent the last 4 weeks sick & didn't disappoint us today after another visit to the doctor. Yep, we've got asthmatic bronchitis again, right before we fly.  We have 3 flights with as much nebulizing in between as possible. I am so excited! The doctor is also starting her on a steroid treament that will be given everyday for 2 months through the nebulizer to help her transition from winter to spring. Apparently she is prone to wheezing. Haha, I guess we kinda figured that out the hard way. Besides being sick, she has changed quite a bit in the last month.  She is becoming more sassy and demanding. Hmmmm... who does that sound like? She is climbing on everything, she's been climbing up the stairs for about 6 months now and onto my parents fireplace & jumping off for quite some time.  But I have caught her up on side tables, coffee tables, chairs and the other day I found her sitting in our bath tub! OH boy! Sarah Grace is also very observant and we really have to watch what we do and say around her...she's always been really big into mimicking us, but she is even better at it now. While at the beach I was putting on my make-up, which she has seen me do a million times, only this time I left the room for 5 seconds and came back in to find her finger all the way down in my bottle of foundation.  I guess the dresser there was too low! Anyway, I cleaned up her hands and noticed she had smeared it all over her face. A girly girl she must be! Sarah Grace cracks us up, Eric & I just watch her and roll in laughter.  She is definitely a showman and loves to dance. If the girl hears any kind of beat her little body is moving. Hands waving, fingers snapping, bum cheeks shaking...even changing her diaper she will dance if she can hear any music. In the car she just bobs her head to whatever we are listening to, I must admit I think she is a big fan of Paramore.  Gracie, we are so glad to have you & I really do hope you feel better soon little love!
