10 Months

Sage is now 10 months old and weighs about 18lbs. At 9 months and one day she took her first three steps and has been practicing ever since. She takes about 2-3 steps and that is it. She loves to walk while pushing her little toy outside on the sidewalk and walk around inside holding onto the furniture. I am sure she will take off soon enough but I am enjoying not having to chase her yet :)


Sage loves to help her Daddy with the dishes. Her job is to take all of the silverware back out after Daddy puts it in the dishwasher. Sage knows the sound of the dishwasher being opened and will come crawling as fast as she can from any room to help. I say help but she makes just a little more work for Daddy. Yes, James does most of the dishes around here!!!


Last Giants game. How wonderful it was that we were invited to go to tons of games with Grandpa and Grandma Pizzo this season. We had so much fun spending time driving to SF, going to Momo's (delicious!), and watching the game. Sage was so great at all of them and we can't wait till next season...


Sage pretty much eats everything (except meat!) and loves it. In the first picture she decided that she needed her own dessert before bed so here she is eating graham sticks and grapes. In the next picture Sage was eating but mostly smearing blackberries and strawberries all over herself. She just cracked up thinking it was the funniest thing to make such a mess! I pretty much threw her into the tub after that.



Sage has two teeth so far. Her 1st tooth came in as a surprise at 7 months. I just happened to stick my finger in and there was a tooth on the bottom! Her 2nd tooth came in right next to the 1st about two months later. The 2nd tooth had such trouble breaking through the gums that we had many sleepless nights. I decided after that that I had to buy the amber neckalce that a ton of Moms rave about. It is supposed to help with tooth pain and growing pains. It took two weeks to receive and no new teeth have popped up since so we are just waiting to see. You can see in the picture below her two beautiful teeth...


We live in a Sacramento neighborhood called Tahoe Park and love it so very much! One of the greatest things is our own little street. On our street alone there are like 10+ kids between 0-2 years old. And more to come... pregancies are contagous over here! The pictures below show Sage with some of her friends from our street at the annual Tahoe Park's Concert in the Park. This was last weekend and was so fun having a small potluck and hanging out with the neighbors.





This picture is so cute I just had to include it. I think Sage looks just like a doll...


After laundry is folded and the basket is empty, Sage loves going for rides...


For the last few weeks this pink car has been her favorite thing to ride around on. About a week ago I was doing something on the porch and I realized Sage was in the car ready to go. I had no idea she even knew how to get in on her own. What a smart cookie!



One of her favorite spots to sit in the house is right next to the fireplace on the hearth. I keep thinking about what we will do in the winter when we turn the fire on. It scares me to think that she might burn herself. Hopefully she learns what hot means without getting hurt. I am already thinking of trying to put some sort of barrier there. Well for now she loves her little spot...






The park used to mean walking around in the stroller watching the kids. Then it was swinging in the swing. Then it was walking on the ground with help. Now Sage goes straight for the wood chips. She is so fascinated with them. She will examine them so intently and also make a pile on the sidewalk. There is so much more to do at the park and I am very excited to watch her grow and realize the other things. But for now the wood chips are very important :)


A few more things... Sage can say mama, dada, doggy, and cat. She is a chatter box and is always talking but I can't understand most of it! I like to call her "my little petite girl" because she is tiny but is so cute :) Oh how my heart is full of so much love!!!
