Fake Burp

OMG- this is funny!! So, Mandie told me that Sage poured everyone a cup of tea and ‘drank’ hers and did a fake burp then looked at her and smiled! I was laughing, not believing her. She was able to get a video of Sage (which at this point, has thrown the cup to the floor and gone straight for the tea pot!)

Brad and I are still not sure where she learned this from :)

Enjoy- and listen for her fake burp.

A New Hat

Sage saw this hat in Target, grabbed it and put it on and walked around with it. And she was attached to this hat all day- after she woke up from her nap, she put it on to play!

Children's Museum

We took Sage to the Portland's Children's Museum yesterday afternoon. Sage had gone once before with Mandie. This was our first time taking her and she loved it! We spent a good hour there and could have spent even more time.
We are now officially members of the Museum and can go any time! I think Sage will love going as much as possible :)

12, 15, 18 month check up!

So I realized I never updated the stats on Sage since she turned one!!

In general, since turning the big 1 and these past 6 months, there really hasn’t been much change with Sage.
I think our biggest concern (but not a huge worry yet!) is her weight gain. Dr. Elia is not too concerned as it is pretty normal for kids this age to be very picky eaters, but he would like to see a jump in her weight in the next three months, otherwise we’ll be meeting with a nutritionist to discuss ways to plump her up.  She was 21lbs at 12 months and has only gained 2lbs by 18 months. BUT- overall, she is healthy!

Another question I think one of the grandparents asked was about her rash- her rash is completely gone (remember that vicious rash this past summer). I went with my mommy instincts and eliminated dairy (milk) from her diet all together and the rash disappeared. What was very weird about it all is that it was only in the diaper area. Strange!! So, Sage drinks Soy Milk and I hope to soon integrate cow’s milk back into her diet, once we are out of diapers.

Sage is right on track- a little on the small side for now, but she’ll grow out of that soon :) She meets all her development checks! Yay!

Week 22

Well, here we are at Week 22, and a day away from being Week 23. I can't believe how fast this is all going. I can hardly keep up and when people ask me how far along I am, I have to sit and think about it.

I'm feeling better with this pregnancy. As I explained, the baby was tucked so perfectly right in my pelvis, but I think on Sunday night and most of Monday, the baby shifted from that area and is now back in my belly area. I don't feel as much pain and pressure as I used to. And the kicks are off to the side now, rather than way down in my pelvis!

This baby is ACTIVE!!! Constantly moving and kicking. Brad is even surprised at how strong the kicks and movement from this little one is. If I lay something on my belly, you can see it move because of the kicks- really funny!

We’ve been trying to tell Sage as often as possible that I have a baby in my belly- she still doesn’t get it, but thinks my belly button is really cool and likes to poke it! She continues to climb all over me as if I’m her personal jungle gym. I try hard to just have her sit next to me, but she always wants to sit on my lap.

We had a doctor appointment last Friday and all is well. The results from our ultra sound are great and doctor says Baby is doing great and growing just right!

That’s it for now J

Nanny Diaries #5

This is a Valentine's Day edition of the ND! Kim brought over a cute shirt for Sage and a tutu, so that the girls would be matching! We could only get one picture of them- but it's the cutest picture.
Enjoy!
