Monster in the House!

I no longer have a baby. She's all grown up now. But, not into the little princess we expected. Oh no,... we now have a monster in the house! This little bundle of joy can throw a tantrum like none of my other kids. Take her toy? Suffer her wrath! Course, she hasn't figured out yet that tantrums on wood floor just hurt herself, yet still have no affect on mommy.

Then, of course, there is her surprising growl.  It doesn't sound like a normal baby growl, and it sure cracks everyone up who hears it.  She can even laugh her growl.  Crazy crazy child.  To top that off, Daniel showed her the possibilities of stair climbing.  Therefore, we have to be on the lookout constantly, due to our very steep set of stairs leading to the kids' rooms, where they often disappear, and Sarah wants to join them.

Oh ya, I can't neglect her other fear factor.  JAWS!!!  She now has six teeth, and she knows how to use them.  The kids tried pulling a "Charlie" act the other day.  (that's the little boy on youtube who puts his finger in his little brother's mouth)  And, she grinds her teeth.  Aaaaaah!!  Now that I can't stand.

Last, but not least, Her nails are very sharp, and her fingers very strong.  Do not, let me repeat, DO NOT, ever let her close enough to have a swipe at your face, or try to put her fingers in your mouth.  I guarantee that you will be left scarred, as many of us have found.  It's pretty funny to see the kids crying because 'Sarah hurt me'  :(

Aah, look at that innocent little face.
