Fall Days

Sage has been battling a bad cold over the past week, which she has kindly passed on to me. However, we made sure to get out and enjoy the leaves before they are all gone! I wish I had the flip camera for this little moment because Sage studied the "cliff" for a good 30 seconds before turning over and back-pedaling down. Once down, she still wasn't convinced that she had cleared the ledge, so she continued to back pedal across the lawn, scratching her legs side-to-side like a dog would do after he/she is done taking a poo. She did the same thing when she needed to get down the "hill" in the backyard--she dropped to a crawl and scooted backwards a good ten feet.

I think we are going to have to keep the swing up through the winter. Sage LOVES to swing!

Pumpkin Patch













I think it's safe to say the girls had a lot of fun and they were sure tuckered out by the time we left! I can't get enough of this beautiful fall weather. It was the perfect day to spend outdoors!

Uh-Oh...



I was actually guilty of this one, but Sage sure enjoyed helping me "pick up" the mess! :)

Des Moines Half

I wish that I could say that I ran the DSM half-marathon, but I was only a spectator...maybe next year! :) Ross, Sage, and I joined Brad downtown DSM, to cheer on Mollie and her sister Amy, at the 13 mile mark. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the busy crowds, cow bells, and post-race enthusiasm.

Nemo!

I received the following email from our daycare lady this morning:

"We have a black cat named Nemo. Jack kept saying, "Nemo! Nemo! NNEEEMMMMOOOO!" Poor Sage...

When I picked her up, Lisa said that she had to actually take Sage's pants off because Jack just couldn't leave her alone. :)
