Sage and Nikki


This is Sage's favorite thing her American Girl Doll Nikki! Although if you call her a doll you will be quickly corrected by Sage that she is not a doll she is her little girl. She is so cute with her. She was so surprised when she got her for Christmas, because she had checked the American Girl website everyday for a month and it always said that Nikki was sold out. She came to the conclusion that she must have been a really good girl and another girl that had asked for Nikki before they were sold out was bad so Santa gave her the doll instead. I wonder how her mind works so fast all the time, she never misses anything and she will argue with you until you give in if she thinks she is right (which is most of the time). Unfortunately her dad and brother get great joy out of teasing her about Nikki which usually ends in tears which then make them feel bad.

Caught!


I came home from work one day and asked the kids where Weston was. They said he is upstair asleep. So I walked up the stairs into Sages room to find him cuddled up with Sages favorite Doll Nikki with Chantz's favorite blanket. Now... I don't know if the kids plotted this scene, but it was pretty funny so I ran back down the stairs to get the camera for proof!

ARTHERITIS

So-- Sage comes home from school one day with the question--Is ARTHERITIS (this is how she says arthritis) when boys only have one nut! Weston and I looked at each other and just burst out laughing. After we gathered our composure we asked her who told her that. She said that a boy at school told her that is what it was. So we proceeded to tell her the real definition of arthritis.

Here We Go!

So I have been saying I am going to start a blog for weeks now and I am finally doing it. At least I am trying to figure it all out. The hardest part was the argument between Weston and I on a name for our blog. Anyway we are looking forward to keeping in touch with everyone through the blog. Kids grow up so fast and it is always fun to hear the funny kid stories. I have to say this has been a quite interesting year with all the questions my kids have come home with. Hope everyone enjoys our blogs as much as we enjoy theirs!
