Pop-Pop & his girls!

Two great pictures of Pop-Pop and his girls.  They had so much fun together!   Reese's parents watched Sage for the us the last night we were in Texas.  Reese and I went to dinner and had a wonderful time.  Sage had fun as well - she sat with Pop-Pop for 45 minutes and had her bottle and just relaxed.  She never sits with us for 45 minutes - she is always on the go!  

Uncle Russ

Sage had lots of fun at the ranch with Uncle Russ.  Here are a few of my favorite pictures of Sage and Russ.

Russ had just finished reading to Sage and she decided she might want to take a walk - maybe not!

Uncle Russ as a jungle gym.

 This is my favorite - Reese and Russ both carried the kids like this while we were at the ranch and the kids loved it!

The Zoo!

We went to a wonderful zoo while we were in Texas.  It was the perfect size for the kids.  We saw all sorts of fun animals and even got to take a train ride.  A fun morning for all!

First Carousel Ride

It rained alot while we were in Texas due to Hurricane Hermine.  One Tuesday we went to the mall to walk around with the kids and get out of the house.  We all had ice cream while we were there and I discovered that Sage likes Mint Chocolate Chip!   We went on her first carousel ride and she loved it! 

Swings on a Hot Walker

While at the ranch the kids all got to swing on a hot walker. A hot walker is a machine that walks horses to help them cool down. But while we were at the ranch the hot walker had three swings hanging from it. Who knew how much fun one could have on a hot walker.  It was great, the parents and grandparents all got a break and the kids got to swing.  Needless to say the kids used the swings alot the week we were at the ranch.

Surprises!

There were many surprises for the kids at the Ranch!  The kids were spoiled with all the wonderful surprises.  One of those surprises were ride on toys for Sage and Finn and a bike for Sloan!  These provided hours of entertainment for the kids.

Trip to the Ranch

We spent the Labor Day holiday at the Ranch in Texas with Reese's family.  It was a great trip!  We were there for a week and had a wonderful time.  Reese's brother, Russ was there with his family as well.  Sage had so much fun with her cousins, Finn and Sloan.   Lots of fun pictures and stories to post!

 This was about the only time all three kids were 

sitting still during the whole week!

Climbing...

Sage is climbing everything in sight!  She loves to pull up on anything.  She also loves anything with a texture.  The first picture is a little dresser in her room and she loves to feel it.  She also loves the rug in our foyer.  It is a bamboo rug and it takes her forever to go from the living room to the dining room since she has to feel the rug on the way. 

Exercise Ball

We were playing around the other day and Sage found a new toy - the exercise ball.  She was having a ton of fun with her newest discovery.  Thanks Aunt Jane for the cute onesie she has on and the pink capris are a hand-me-down from Sloan - thanks Aunt Faith!
