Frozen Yogurt

We went and had frozen yogurt over the weekend.  Sage loved picking out all her toppings - her favorites were the mini M&M's.   I see lots of trips for frozen yogurt in our near future!

Pigtails for school!

Last Thursday morning we had a few extra minutes before we had to leave for school and Sage looked so cute I had to snap a few pictures.  She has been letting us do more to her hair than just ponytails and it has been fun!  She was loving her pigtails that morning.

Potty Training Update

I didn't think I was going to have to do another potty training update until this past weekend. So this may be TMI for some - if so stop reading now.  Sage wasn't really acting like herself last weekend.  She was really cranky and clingy.  Finally on Sunday night it clicked -she was constipated she hadn't gone in a few days and that was why she was cranky.  Sunday night she was up every 15 - 30 minutes.  I pulled her in bed with me to try to calm her down and Reese went into the guest room.  It was a very long night and we got about 5 hours of sleep.  Monday started with the accidents.  It was a LONG day and so was Tuesday, and Wednesday.   Wednesday she finally starting going on the potty again.  She had more accidents in those days than all of potty training so far.  I decided to get out a sticker chart and try the reward system.  I went out Wednesday night and bought a bunch of stuff.  She is doing well with the stickers and rewards and I hope she keeps it up. 

Her basket of prizes.

Sign for Daddy!

When Reese got home last Friday this sign was hanging on the door for him!

I wrote out each letter on a separate sheet of paper and then Sage would write the letter on the sign.  I had to write a few of the letters for her but she wrote the rest.  It is so fun to see her learn her letters and then start writing them. 

Dinner with Friends!

Last week Rebecca and Lydia invited Sage and I over for dinner.  Reese was gone to Mexico on a business trip and Rebecca's husband Darren had to work late.  It was a perfect time to get together.  We thought it would be a nice relaxing night the girls could play and we could chat.  Were we wrong - it must have been a full moon that night.  The girls were out of control.  They took turns being crabby - when one had a toy the other one wanted it.  At dinner they were both very clingy and didn't want to eat and it was pizza - who doesn't like pizza?  They finally both ate and we went downstairs to play and watch a movie.  By this time the girls were finally having fun and they wanted to play all night long!

It is hard to color and watch the movie at the same time!

Elephant

Lately for every nap Sage has to put her pajamas on for it.  She keeps telling me she wants to be comfy!  I guess whatever it takes for her to take a good nap.   She has been really attached to this elephant the last week.  She is just too cute!!

New Helmet

We got Sage a bike helmet for Christmas and she was so excited to use it.  We got it out last week when she was riding her bike and now she won't get on her bike without it.  Starting early on bike safety! 

Spring Hike

It has been so nice here - Spring is finally here!  We went for a hike last weekend and had lots of fun.  Sage wasn't sure she wanted to go but she loved it!  We hiked through the woods and then had a mini picnic back at the car. 

More Q-Tip Painting

We were doing some activities last week and Sage saw this painting book that you use Q-tips to paint with.  She wanted to stop our activities immediately to do the painting.  Well we ended up finishing the activities and then she got to paint.  Here she is very into her painting project!
