Painting with Daddy

Reese has an easel set up in his old office and he and Sage decided to paint away on Saturday afternoon.  I had so much fun watching them paint together.  It is the little things like this, watching Reese teach Sage to paint and it just makes me realize how lucky we are.  Sage had lots of questions and was really good - they painted for about an hour.   When Reese got out the painters palette and started mixing paint she was so excited.  She held the painters palette the rest of the time.

Doritos!

We have a sticker chart to help encourage Sage to finish potty training.  She gets to pick prizes after she fills a row with stickers.  Saturday morning she finished a row and got to pick a prize.  Well she takes after her Momma and loves her salty snacks.  So she chose the bag of Doritos as her prize.  She loves her orange chips as she calls them!


 This was Sage pulling the bag away and giving me an evil look when I went to take a Dorito from the bag.

T-Ball

Sage got a T-ball set from my parents for Christmas and who knew it would be nice enough outside in February to start using it!   We got it out yesterday since it was in the high 50's.  Sage loved being outside and she was having so much fun with her new T-ball set.  Thanks Nana & Papa!

Library Craft Day!

Today for playgroup we went to the Library for a craft day!   They started off with a story about Valentine's Day and then they had a Valentine's Day craft for the kids to do.  The girls, Sage and Allison did the craft but the boys just played!  The kids all seemed to enjoy being at the library they could play, read books, do puzzles and work on the computers.  It was a good morning followed by lunch at Chick-Fil-A!

 Sage and Allison listening to the story I thought it was so cute that Sage had her arm around Allison I had to take a picture.  

 JJ and Andrew during story time.

Sage and JJ both really into the computer time.

PT & Library

We had a busy morning today, Sage had physical therapy at 9am and then library storytime at 10am.  Sage loves her physical therapist and so do I!   Her name is Anne and she is working with Sage on her toe walking.  Sage has done really well with the therapy and she measured her flexibility from the first visit and compared it to her visit today and she has improved a ton!  We headed to the library after PT and Sage enjoyed storytime, but I think she liked playing on the computer even more.

Another Potty Training Update

Sage has been doing really good with potty training.  She has recently been going poop in the potty - yeah!  A big deal for this Momma - who knew it would such a big deal!  Sage still wears a diaper at naptime and bedtime.  I took the picture below this evening.  We go through the whole bedtime routine, bath, books, songs, prayers, etc.  Then she comes flying out of her bed to stand at her door to fill her diaper.  We are trying to help her understand that it isn't good to hold it until she gets her diaper on.  We are slowly getting there.

Keeping Sage busy!

One morning last week we had to stay home and wait for a delivery.  We got some snow, only about two inches so Sage and I shoveled.  It was my first time shoveling with a 3 year old!   Let's just say we were outside a lot longer than normal.  But we had fun!  When we came back inside I got out some activities for Sage.

 We have been working on our numbers.


 Working on sorting and patterns. 


 This was a Christmas present and she liked to watch it make a picture on the automatic setting. 

But she rather preferred when she got to do it!
