Leah dilligenly says, "out and in" while moving her legs everytime she swings. I'm hoping soon it will start propelling her. She could literally swing for hours.

More Park
We've been spending a lot of time here, especially now that the weather is practically perfect.

G&G Carrier
We always enjoy when Grandma and Grandpa come to visit.
Sarah liked to take walks with Grandma.
There were lots of long morning walks and playing at the park.
This picture makes me laugh. I realized on our way to drop them off, that we hadn't taken many photos. That's why it's so posed.
Did you notice Leah's outfits? She's always been particular with her wardrobe and her accessories. Some of them are interesting...
It's always too quiet in the house after my parents leave. Lucky for us, they will be back at the end of October as full time missionaries, and we are looking forward to seeing them more often. They will do such a wonderful job.

Leah's Stuff
One of Leah's favorite phrases is, "Don't let [Insert any name here] get my stuff," as she hands you a handful of things.
She also likes to hide (or hoard) her stuff in the play tent downstairs, under her pillow, in bags, or in her pockets so "[Insert any name her] won't get it."
Leah's stuff ranges from all sorts of things from her bunny to an AC Moore key chain rewards card that she calls her phone. It's an I-Phone naturally, with the key hole being the home button.
I've been wanting to document this for awhile. Enjoy.
Two bags of stuff for our library trip.
Here is a look at what is currently under her pillow.
Books, bunny, and small things are pretty standard, and there is usually at least one pair of shoes. Once, she put a pink ball under there and got upset when it wasn't comfortable to lay down on it.
It's also common to find a bag full of more stuff under the pillow with the other stuff.
I dumped out the contents to get a picture.
Here is what I found inside:
Paper clips
Two pairs of Minnie Mouse panties
Magnifying glass
Three nail files
Miniature Lightening McQueen car
Miniature Mater car
2 pink hair bands
Old watch
Empty Trident gum package
Baby brush
Hot pink sunglasses
She is so funny, and it's been fun to see how many things are uniquely her.

Daring Baby
Sarah is so much fun right now, and she is fearless.
She is completely comfortable on the playground, and she is full of giggles and smiles when she positions herself to go down the slide, with or without me.
At twelve months, she has mastered climbing up and down the stairs and has moved on to small chairs and tables. It will only be a matter of time before she will be climbing the bar stools.
She laughs, babbles, points and grunts when she wants something.
She is an excellent sleeper and loves her routine. When 5 pm comes she wants to be in her high chair eating dinner, so she can be in bed for the night at 6pm.
She wakes up at 6:30am standing in the same corner of her crib waiting for me.
She takes one afternoon nap now, and it is working well for us.
She doesn't care for milk at all, and she loves my green smoothies.
She loves to smile and wave, sometimes with both her hands.
She doesn't have patience for shopping and doesn't care for sitting in the cart. After about 30 minutes, she is trying to figure out how to wiggle and climb her way out.
She loves taking things in and out of pockets, purses, boxes, etc.
While she's not walking yet, she cruises around freely.
She crawls really fast and can stand for quite some time by herself.
She is such a happy, fun baby, and we are so glad she is ours.

Zoo
September was full of fun visits for us.
My cousin David came for a few days as part of an annual work trip. It was his second time, and we are already looking forward to next year.
We went to the Zoo one day, and everything was just perfect. The weather was nice, the animals were active, we found free parking, and we had a gigantic snowcone to finish out the day.
