Daddy!

Reese was traveling most of this week.  I am not sure who missed the other more Reese or Sage.  All week she would ask for Daddy and I would remind her that he was traveling.  She would look at me and say "Cago"  Yep, Daddy was in Chicago.  What a good memory she has!   When he got home Wednesday night we all cuddled up and watched a Mickey episode.   There were lots of kisses and hugs for Daddy.  You can see from this picture that they were both glad to be home together.

Relaxing

Sage was playing with the Kindle Fire on Monday morning and she kept asking for a pillow.  I had no idea what she needed a pillow for.  Well I finally got her a pillow and this is what she did:


She need to get comfy to play on the Kindle - to cute!  The battery was low so I had to have it plugged in and she kept trying to unplug it.

Wings

Aunt Shelley got Sage these wings for her birthday.  They came with a cute tutu as well.  Sage hasn't tried on the tutu yet, but she loves the wings.  They only stay on for about 5 minutes and then she needs help getting them off.  She was trying to multi-task yesterday morning and talk to Nana and wear the wings at the same time.  It didn't work out very well and the wings needed to come off immediately!

Color Wonder

Sage got two books of Color Wonder for her birthday and she loves them!  She has so much fun coloring.  She likes to use as many of the markers as she can.  So there is a lot of taking the top off the markers and then putting the top back on and searching for just the right color! 

 She usually starts with her Princess book and then switches to her Mickey book!

Christmas Lights

We went to the zoo on Friday night to see their Christmas light display.  It was a fun family night.  We got there around 5:30 and it wasn't very busy.  It was cold but not to bad.  Sage wouldn't keep her gloves on but she kept her hands under her blanket.  We walked around and saw a few animals - not to many were out.  Reese and I split a hot chocolate and that helped keep my hands warm.  We also took a train ride.  Sage didn't want to get off the train.   She only wanted to sit with Daddy and she wouldn't sit on his lap, only next to him.  Our girls knows what she wants!


Not bad for a self portrait!  Don't be scared by my dark circles and no make-up.  There just wasn't any time to get ready Friday afternoon.  There might have been time if I had put down our new Kindle Fire while Sage was napping.  But I was having to much fun playing!

Winter

Well winter has officially arrived and I wasn't really ready for it.  I have been wearing a scarf and gloves and finally had to bring out the winter jacket this week.  I also got out some gloves and mittens for Sage.  She will usually let me put them on but you never know how long she will keep them on.   The first time she wore the gloves was with Reese at the park.  She very patiently let him help her put on the gloves and then kept them for almost the entire time at the park.  Here she had her mittens on in the car and they lasted about 5 minutes!

Kindle Lesson

We got our Kindle Fire last night and I downloaded a bunch of apps.  Some for Reese, some for me and a bunch for Sage.  The three she tried last night were the match game, piano, and the doodlepad.  She loved them all!  She liked to choose the color for the doodlepad, play as fast as she could on the piano and hear the animals roar on the match game.  Amazing how much she picks up in such a short amount of time. 

She was playing the match game with Daddy and didn't want to stop to go to bed!

2 Year-olds!

My Mother-In-Law took this picture over the Thanksgiving weekend.  It was a beautiful afternoon and the kids were having so much fun in the backyard and on the playset.  I love this picture, the two 2 year-olds of the family.  You can tell that they are 2 when they have their tantrums.  Sage sticking her lower lip out and pouting to Finn when he is told no and he crumples to the floor.  It is so much fun to watch in action!  We had fun during their visit.
