Popcorn

The other night Taylor and I were trying to watch a movie after putting Sage to bed. She has been kind of pill the last couple weeks getting to bed. She has to go potty several times, needs a drink, needs to be covered up, needs her baby, her baby gets cold and needs a blanket... the list goes on and on. During one of my trips into her room she asked me what I was eating. I lied and told her "nothing". She told me, "come here. open wide." The little detective wanted to smell my breath. After some insisting I gave in and opened wide. "Popcorn! You're eating popcorn!" Needless to say, she came and sat with us for a few minutes so she could have a little popcorn snack before finally going to bed!

September

Once again I am behind on the blog. Now that we are over half way through October here is September at a glance. Sage started Joy School and dance class. I have been working on a facebook page, blog, pinterest and instagram account for Motherhood in the Major Leagues. We also spent many many days at the park trying to enjoy the last of the warm weather. Taylor has worked a ton of overtime. 55 hours of overtime during a two week period. Harper became an official crawler and gets into everything which keeps us busy as well. We also got new carpets which was a mont process since they originally said we could not get it. They had them cleaned and cleaned again because they were not done right and after the second time decided the carpet was destroyed and probably should have just been replaced to begin with. Anyways, we had several days of wet carpet and of feeling like hoarders as we had to move furniture from room to room to get the new carpet in. It was worth it though! Taylor and I also did the electric run at Thanksgiving point and saw the one and only juan Pablo from the Bachelor. Jeff and Ashley were signed up to do it with us but Ashley got really sick so Michael Karren took her place. I started this post a couple weeks ago and have waited so long to post it I cannot remember where I put the other collages of the month... so here are just a few pictures. 

Cornbellys

We had such a good time at Cornbellys despite the cold temperature and mist. We brought our niece Kaylee along with us and her and Sage loved running around together. Harper was a good sport as always. This just may be added to our October tradition list! 

Funny things Sage says

Today after dropping Taylor off at work Sage told me she was "so angry" because she didn't want daddy to go to work. She also told me she couldn't take a nap because her babies were sleeping in her bed and she couldn't go in her room. When I finally got her down for a nap and she kept screaming and waking up her napping sister I closed her door. She laid down by the door yelling, "mommy buggie." I think it is so cute when she calls me that!

Harper girl is 8 months!

Harper Girl is 8 months old! This month you:

•  had 2 teeth break through on the bottom. 
• began really crawling on all fours and getting around fast
• learned how to splash in the bathtub 
• learned to sit up on your own (you are always sitting up when we go get you on of your bed)
• have started pulling yourself up to a standing position.
• continued to be an absolute angel.
• still slept through the night 12-13 hours. 
• have started having a consistent nap schedule. You always take a short nap in the morning about an hour and half after waking up, a long 2 hour nap around 1 and a short nap around 4:30. 
• discovered you love yogurt melts and sucking on graham crackers. You are still not a fan of other foods; you will only take a few bites and then are usually done. 
• have shown sympathy for your sister. Anytime Sage gets a time out you go crawling fast to her room, get up on your knees and bang on her door. 
• have started to frustrate your sister as you get into all her things.
• continue to suck on your bottom lip when you are hungry 
• started shaking your arms up and down when you get excited.
• have been as smiley as ever.

This month we have fallen more and more in love with you. 

Harper Lee

This babe is almost 8 months! I will save the update for just a few days, but I did want to write how blessed we are for this sweetie. We sure love her and can't imagine our lives without her. 

The Greatest Show on Earth

 Sage and I had a mommy/daughter date night and had so much fun. We went and got frozen yogurt with animal cookies and then headed to the circus. Sage absolutely loved it. We went an hour early and were right there when they opened the doors and enjoyed the free show down at the floor. I was surprised to make it to intermission, but she insisted on watching more so we stayed the entire show and she was in awe the entire time; we both were. I also love the circus. Sage's favorite were the tigers and elephants. No surprise there. She also loved the dancing. She stood up and danced around too. Love my big girl.
