Car Crying

Saige HATES the car. She screams every time shes in it for longer than 5 min. She won't take a paci, doesn't care about the toy thats in it, music, singing nothing works. Well I heard that putting them in a bigger carseat sometimes works because they are more comfortable so we thought we'd give it a try. We bought a britax and said a prayer and took off...and what did we hear SCREAMING :) I guess she just hates the car. Sigh...ear plugs might be next?

Mothers Day Out

Well little Reesie is off at school! I documented her morning :) She woke up and had waffles, fruit and cheese. She kept saying "no cool (school) Cry" So needless to say, I was more than concerned. But she pulled her little barney backpack up into the school. On the way we saw Erica and Emma and Reese went right in Emma's class. We finally made our way into her room and she went right in and got busy playing. She was so busy she wouldn't even look up for a picture. We gave her a quick kiss and said good bye before she cried. I made Erica peek in on her and she was a little teary eyed but not crying like the others were. I think her room may of been the loudest with all the little criers. Heres a few pictures from our morning. I'll update how the rest of her day goes.


UPDATE:
She did GREAT!!!! She didn't cry when I picked her up. She was walking around the room proudly and even hugged her teachers bye. They said she napped...which I serioiusly canNOT believe. So this school thing is going to be good :)

Sleeping Beauty

Well Saige slept like a queen last night. Aaron patted her down for me because Reese was having a melt down that only mommy could fix. She was sound asleep by 7:30 and slept until 2:30...HELLO thats 7 hours!!!! I couldn't believe it. I went in to check to see if she was breathing and she was fine. She woke up later at 5:00 and again at 7.

I sure hope we are going to start this as a new trend. I think I'm going to make Daddy start patting her down. Maybe thats the key :)

Future Breastfeeder

Or pumper anyway! Reese saw me pumping the other day and wanted to be just like mommy. For some reason she doesn't nurse her babies though. I thought for sure she would since she was nursed for so long AND I nurse Saige all the time.



Its here! Its here!!!!

The long awaited Barney backpack has arrived. I "won" this on ebay. She has to have a backpack for mothers day out. She starts on Thursday (gulp) Reese was so excited to see BaBa (Barney) on her backpack.

Heres some pictures of her playing with it.


Book Worm

Reese has always enjoyed books. When she was tiny I read to her all the time. Brown Bear Brown Bear was and still is a favorite. When she was about 8-12mths ALL she wanted to do was look at books. I mean ALL. DAY. LONG. Now at almost 2 she likes to read to herself.

Heres a clip of her reading to herself. She didn't do it like she usually does because I think she knew I was filming her.

Saige

Well Saige is almost 4 months old and has changed a lot. She will now nap and sleep on occasion. (YAY!) She also is "talking" all the time now. I have to watch whats in front of me because she is getting better every day at grabbing objects. Saige will also now sit and play in her exersaucer, bouncy seat, floor etc. I even got to clean the house the other day. She constantly has a little spit bubble on her mouth. Its so funny.

Heres some pictures of her.
