Egg Hunt

There were plastic eggs filled with M&M's all over our house Easter morning.  Sage would squeal with delight each time she found an egg.  Each time she found one she opened it up and promptly ate the M&M's that were in each egg.  After about five eggs she stopped eating the candy and just put the eggs in her bucket and would move on to find more eggs.  There were two special eggs that had $1 in each, those were her favorite eggs! 

 

 

Happy Easter!

We hope you all are having a great Easter!   We took these pictures before we left for church this morning.  Sage wasn't really in the picture mood.  So we told her if she got her picture taken she could have a donut after church, it worked!   She let us take a few pictures and to top it off - she was really good in church.  She usually goes to the nursery but today we took her into the service with us.  She sang, clapped, went down for the Children's Message (I had to go with her), and she also made a few new friends during church!  

Thanks Aunt Shelley for my cute dress!

Coloring Eggs

We colored eggs this afternoon and all had lots of fun.  Sage was really interested in the dye - of course!   Reese and I both helped her with the eggs.  We won't be able to eat these beautiful eggs because the other night when I boiled them I left them out in the sink ALL night.   But at least we had fun coloring eggs!

More Easter Crafts!

We did two more Easter crafts yesterday morning.  I think my girl could do crafts all day if I let her!   I love to watch her as we do crafts - she really concentrates on them.  I got both of these ideas off of this blog:  http://www.littlefamilyfun.com/  

 This was Sage's favorite Easter egg to create.  She had lots of fun trying to figure out where to put the buttons and the pom-poms. 

The finished Easter eggs!!

Purple Princess

We have a trunk of dress-up/princess clothes in the play area in our family room.  Last night after dinner, Sage went over and pulled out a dress.  She told us she wanted to be a princess.   She had so much fun running around the house in her princess dress!  

Think she missed her Daddy?

Smoothies

We have been having lots of smoothies in this house - all 3 of us!   I have been making most of the smoothies but did buy these little smoothies at the store for Sage.  She loves them and always asks for more when she is done.   Reese is getting home this afternoon after being gone for 3 days.  We are both excited to see him.  I put Sage in this cute shirt that says "I Love Daddy".  She has only worn it twice and it is almost to small.  She is getting so big!

Plastic Easter Eggs

Aunt Shelley gave Sage a kit to decorate plastic eggs for Easter.  We have lots of plastic Easter eggs and decided to spare a few to do the craft with Sage.  Sage had lots of fun placing the stickers in just the right spot on each egg.  She kept opening the eggs to check and see what was in them.  They were all empty.  She kept telling me  "No M&M's Momma" each time she opened the eggs!

 The finished product!

Delivery!

We got a package this weekend for Sage.  She was so excited to open it!   It was from Mimi and Pop-Pop and Sage couldn't wait to open it and see what present was inside.  She had lots of fun opening the package to find an Easter basket inside!  Thanks Mimi & Pop-Pop for the Easter Basket.  I think her favorite part was the fruit snacks in the basket!

New sun hat!

We have had such nice weather here - we have been loving it!   But it made me realize I wasn't as prepared for summer as I thought.  I didn't have any sun hats for Sage and we only have a few pairs of shorts.  I found these cute sun hats online and ordered two of them.  They were out of stock and I finally got them last week.   I put one of the hats on Sage last week when we were playing outside.  As you can see from the photo below - she was not happy.  Here is why she wasn't happy:   she didn't like her new hat, she wasn't able to go play next door where the kids were jumping on the trampoline and we had to go inside for dinner and she wanted to stay outside.   It made for lots of drama around here! 

Love that pouty face!
