Amelia is 17 Months Today - November 30th, 2025

 Amelia is 17 months old this month. She is starting to say a few simple words like puppy, and she says her own name. She still loves her nursery rhymes, and playing outside. She still doesn't have much hair. Because of my back surgery, I haven't been able to tend her by myself this month. I can't lift her yet. But MaKayla still brings her over one night a week and hangs out. It is the highlight of my week. It is fun to see what new things she does each week. Here are a few pictures of her this month!











2nd Annual Pie Night - November 26th, 2025

 Tonight we had our 2nd Annual Pie Night. We had 6 different pies and a carrot cake (for Sam and Lilly) We didn't have as many people as last year, but the pies were just as yummy!





 

 

Taking Amelia To The Park - November 26th, 2025

 Today  is our 54th wedding anniversary. We are staying home this year. We are actually tending Amelia. We decided to take her for a walk to the park. She was really excited to be outside, and it was a beautiful fall day. We took a couple of videos and sent them to MaKayla. It was our first time taking Amelia to the park, but we hope to have many more trips!







Fall Flowers

 I love the fall flowers. They usually last until around Thanksgiving, but we are having a mild winter, so they will probably last into December this year. Here are a few of them.












3rd Time Is A Charm! November 13th, 2025

Mandi's second baby blanket (wooby) was falling apart. I sewed the silk back on the best I could. I searched everywhere and found one last piece on EBay, so I ordered it and found the same silk edging. This will be the 3rd exact same one I have made for her. I don't think she will ever get rid of the original one. It was fun surprising her with this one. The last picture is her when I made the second one. Hopefully, I can get a picture of all 3 of them together.
