Taking Control

Well, I knew it was going to happen sooner or later, but Sage has figured out she has hands and knows how to use them! This is a picture of Sage reaching for someone's Diet Coke at Thanksgiving. She had a blast when my Cousin Courtney's husband, Brian introduced her to an empty plastic drinking cup. She's grabbing EVERYTHING! Plates off the dinner table, her pacifier, (She's figured out how to take it out of her mouth and pop it back in all on her own.) her bib, her clothes, my clothes, jewelry, hair, noses, lips... She holds her clean diaper while I'm changing her. Her favorite thing to hold and play with is Ed, her little stuffed horse. Of course, into the mouth he goes, along with everything else she manages to get her hands on. It's amazing to watch her learning to play!
