We've been pretty sick at the Archer house this week. All of us had a nasty stomach bug over the weekend, and we're recovering at different rates. Since Sarah and I were up and around while Tom still needed some time to himself, we met up with Grammie and Pa-Pa at Oak Park Mall on Tuesday night. We had dinner and then let Sarah run loose in the mall for a bit. I think Grammie had dreams of Sarah making peace with Santa and sitting on his lap, but we abandoned those plans pretty quickly! Instead, Grammie distracted her by taking her into the Disney store to look at things she can't have...
Once we had convinced her to return the 5 stuffed Piglets she had in her hands to the bin they "sleep" in, we took her over to the play area and let her play on the cars for a while. She loved running around with the big kids and had a blast going down the slide, but all of that stopped when the carousel started moving! She ran to the edge of the play area, climbed up on the benches for a better look and said, "Horse!"
Needless to say, she then rode the carousel with Pa-Pa. Twice.
What a lucky girl she is to have a Grammie and Pa-Pa who love her so much!
