Hanging with Daddy

I had a meeting last night so Reese and Sage were hanging out together.  They had lots of fun and Sage found a new favorite spot - the half wall in our entry way.  With the addition of the gate at the bottom of our stairs we took away one of her favorite spots to sit - the bottom stair.  Well now she has her new favorite spot!  I had to get a few shots of the fun!

She was loving it when Reese would put her down to the floor - she wouldn't put her feet down to touch.   Too cute!

The Stairs

Saturday morning started off interesting in our house.  There was a accident with the stairs and it wasn't Reese or I falling down them it was Sage.  I was making breakfast and Reese went up stairs - I thought he had her, he thought I had her and as I came around the corner I got to see her fall down five stairs.  She landed face first on the linoleum with her feet heading towards the front door.  What a way to start the day.  She cried for a minute or so, I think she was more scared than hurt.  Mommy had some tears as well.   She seemed to be o.k. and we called the pediatrician to see what we should look for.  The only thing that they seemed to worry about was if she was throwing up - she was not.  Then the guilt started - if we had a gate she wouldn't have been able to get up there in the first place.  Well, needless to say within two hours of her falling we had a gate at the bottom of the stairs.  She has a bruise on her right hip and a bruise by her right eyebrow and a fat lip.  All seem to be healing quickly.  Here is a picture not long after she fell - she seemed to have already forgotten about her fall,  She is very intrigued by our new gate.  Amazing how resilient kids are!

Being chased by Daddy up the stairs is lots of fun...

New Hiding Spot

Sage loves to hide and have you find her - she started this game with Nana.  She has lots of fun hiding!  She has a new hiding spot: behind the white couch in the living room.  She can fit back there and she thinks it is so much fun.   She was hiding on us last night and Reese got some great shots!  Her cute shirt is from our friends Lisa, Rob, and Shelby - thanks guys! 

This is just a cute pic of Sage playing with Reese after dinner.

Beautiful Day

It is a beautiful day here - in the low 70's.  We are loving it!   Sage and I went for a walk and when we got home she played hard until nap time.  I think she was just delaying the inevitable - a nice long nap for Mommy!   She slept an hour and is calling for me to come get her.  Hope you are enjoying a beautiful day as well!

 Thanks Michelle for Sage's new truck - she loves it!

Sage poured herself some tea - one cup just wasn't enough. 

Errands

Sage and I were out running errands this afternoon and while we were at the bank this is what I saw when I turned around:

 She had propped her sunglasses on top of her head just like Mommy does.  She looks quite pleased with herself in this picture.

Jacket

I love that my Mom saved a bunch of clothes from when we were little.  This Jacket is one of those that she saved.  And it fits - o.k. it is a little tight on Sage's belly!  But I think she looks adorable in it.  I love that she gets to wear something that I (or maybe Shelley!) once wore.  Bear with me - I couldn't choose just one picture of her in the jacket so there are four! 

She was coming to put the lens cap on the camera!

 

 

Almost there with the lens cap.

One of her favorite activities - shutting the door and knocking and waiting for one of us to knock back.

Just love this one!

Basketball

Reese had a fun weekend filled with basketball as he was enjoying the Final Four in Houston.  Thanks Dave, for getting such great tickets for Reese to enjoy the games with you!   Reese, Dave, and Joe got to see the first two games of the weekend and Russ joined them for the final game.  They had fabulous seats and it sounds like it was a great time!  Here are a few shots from the weekend.

What great seats they had to watch all the action!

More Sunglasses

We were out shopping this week and I found a great deal on sunglasses for Sage so I picked up 2 more pairs.  Here she is with the pink pair I found for her.  She seems to like them!
