Sleepy Head

Sage played hard Sunday morning. When she had finally had enough, she found herself a sunny spot and cuddled up with her "meep meep" and had a little rest. So cozy!
I know all moms think that their children are brilliant, but let me tell you that this little girl is phenomenal! She has taken to singing the alphabet. She knows most of her colors. Green seems to be her favorite. Her daddy likes to wear green shirts because he knows she will poke him and say "neen!" This girl can color too! I am amazed at the time she spends hunched over a sheet of paper with a crayon pressed in her pudgy little hand creating wonderful squiggles (Jess, Brenton, and Grady might say squiggling :) haha, guess you would have had to be there). She always spots Nissan Titans on the road and yells "Daddy!" She used to get excited about diesel trucks, but now not so much. And what a sweetheart, the other night her brother was on timeout, and she kept taking him pieces of popcorn. They look out for each other. She loves her Haydee. Tonight she got a package from her Grandma F, and she was tickled with the princess slippers and light up bracelet. She insisted on wearing the bracelet to bed; I am sure there will be a light show all night long. Her teachers at school tell me that she has amazing verbal skills, well, I guess I shouldn't be to surprised about that, I know her big brother :) Besides, she's my brilliant girl.

Football, Football!

Well, its football season! We are getting into the action around here. Hayden is obsessed. His dad took him to a high school game on Friday night. He was soooo tired, but managed to keep his eyes open through most of it. He was so excited to tell me about the game the next morning. He is begging us to buy him a helmet so he can be a real football player. I thought maybe a Seahawks jersey would be a good alternative. He was so excited to get the shirt, but that just made him need the helmet even more. We had a Seahawks party tonight. Well, we called it a party, but Hayden was quick to point out that we didn't have any friends come and that we didn't play and games or go to the park. (what a lame party!) The Hawks didn't help our situation either. It is amazing to have my little guy tell me about shotgun plays and such. He seems to have a good grasp on the game. He even does the worm when he scores a touchdown. (sort of looks like an epileptic seizure) Sage has apparently been taking notes when we all play in the back yard because last week at daycare, her class played football one afternoon and the teachers found it hilarious when she grabbed the ball, bent over and yelled HIKE! a few times and then tossed the ball. She likes to tackle :)
