What an entrance

One of my friends is getting married--Rachel---so naturally she is having a bridal shower and naturally I decide to go. Of course I'm late because why should I be on time for anything-it's just not in my nature. I run on Sadie Time, which involves tons of doddling. I finally make it to the house and as I'm walking in the front door I start to get sharp pains on the back of my thigh--it's kind of like getting stuck with a needle over and over again. I start to get nervous that I've got a spider or something on my leg. As I'm walking in I pull my skirt up and frantically say to Rachel, "Is there something up my skirt? Do you see anything?" So I have my skirt pulled up for practically anyone to see and she doesn't see anything. The pain continues, so I go into the bathroom which is right next to the main gathering room. I pull up my skirt again and there is the problem-- a wasp is stuck under my skirt. The little wasp is mad and starts coming at me, so I scream-loudly-a few times and explode out of the door- running to escape the wasp. Rachel helps me shoo the wasp outside and then I turn around and see everyone staring at me. Rachel said, "So everyone this is Sadie." I wave sheepishly and smile-trying to pretend that I'm not embarrassed that I've been screaming, lifting up my skirt and running around the entry way like a crazy lady. I got stung several times and my leg hurt---sooo bad. If you haven't been stung recently--it really hurts. Thankfully they hooked me up with some Benadryl and Ibuprofen. Thank goodness for medicine....

This story really makes me miss you, Sadie! I don't know why, but it's just funny and I can totally imagine this all playing out in my head. I hope Rachel got teased enough at the bridal shower!

Ha ha ha. I can totally picture this going on. That is really embarrassing for a first time meet.

I'm sorry that you got stung, but it did make for an interesting story. And think of it this way, the people at the shower won't forget you. ;)

Sadie! I am terrified of Bees... never mind Wasps. I would have been going crazy.. had this been me, my entrance would have been everything it was for you plus some crying! I can't believe you got stung so many times! Great story and very funny to picture but at the same time my legs hurt for you. :)

From me to him

Dear Isaak, Happy Birthday my little guy! It feels like just yesterday that you were literally pulled out to come into this world. Yes literally with forceps around your little head because you accidentally faced the wrong direction or maybe you faced the direction you wanted to. You didn’t seem like you were quite ready to come out because you were just wailing--almost like you were saying, “You know--I was perfectly comfortable in there.” I’ve learned this year that you surely know what you want and you will not stop until you get it. For example when we tried to spend the weekend away from home and you didn't like sleeping in your playpen! You woke up every 1/2 hour to let us know you weren't comfortable. You finally fell asleep around 3am when we put you on the bouncer. Cory slept with his arm around you on the floor so you didn't roll off. You weren’t going to come easy, eh?? I remember pushing and pushing and pushing and thinking this isn’t going how I thought that i...

Alas I speak

First of all it was easy to get that Widget of the Baby on, but I have no idea how to get if off. It's not that I don't want to remove it, I just don't know how. I'm not the smartest blogger on the block. I bet there is some button that says remove widget somewhere. So the big day finally arrived-if you want to know as little as possible I suggest that you read no further, but just scroll down and enjoy the pictures. I slept in on Thursday(last week)-it was glorious. I straightened my hair, shaved my legs and just slowly got ready for work. I then decided that it was essential that I pick up baby wipes from Costco. My body must have known that I would be needing them soon. I'm walking around Costco and all of the sudden I pee my pants. I was looking all around for a bathroom, but I couldn't see one anywhere. I thought well it was just a little leak and I know there is a bathroom at target and they are usually pretty clean. So I head over to target and I continue...

Whaaaaat??????

I'm happily brushing my teeth in the bathroom. I'm looking around wondering what else I could be doing while I'm brushing my teeth and I started to think to myself, hmmmm , I wonder what's in toothpaste? I picked up the tube with my free hand and continued brushing. As I was reading the back I noticed a WaRnINg : Do not use for more than four weeks at a time. What? Do not use for more than four weeks? I anticipated reading if you swallow more than what you are brushing your teeth with call poison control. I try to start adding up how long I've been using this toothpaste. Cory didn't like it, so I've been using it solo and it has surely been more than four weeks. Now I don't know what to do with it--do I take a break and come back to it or do I just keep using it? I mean it's been about three months and I still have quite a bit left and nothing seems out of the ordinary yet...But seriously I think that the warning on the toothpaste should at least be...
