Auntie Judi and Uncle Jim moved into their new home!!
We got to have a picnic with them on their new floor before the furniture came!

Daddy went to pick you up after your nap on Saturday, and he found you on top of your changing table!!
The next day we bought sheets for your new full mattress that will be on the floor of your new room.

Saturday you met Curious George and Clifford, the big red dog at the WXXI open house!

We also touched turtles and snakes, made music and did crafts. Oh yes, we also ate doughnuts.

In the afternoon, Marlie and her Mom joined us for the Hilton Apple Festival. I was hoping for more apples and fewer craft booths, but we had a great time anyway!
We are fair food, played with balloons, sang songs and went down the slide.

The next day, Jimmiqua joined us for church. Then we all went to the West Irondequoit Fall Festival. It was great to get outside. We went on a hay ride, ate hot dogs, and made sand art. Jimmiqua volunteered to play an instrument / toy for the folk singer. She did a great job!

Today you and I walked to daycare together! You would walk away and pick up some sticks or look at flowers, and then come back and reach up to hold my hand.
We pointed out birds (“chirp chirp”)and trees and cars (“beep beep”) and dogs (“woof woof”) to each other as we walked. What a treasured time.

You can say apple and elbow, and Marlie, and all kinds of new words. Yesterday I had to teach my night class, and you and Daddy left me a message on my office phone. You said Hi! And Mama! And Mommy! I listened to it a couple of times and saved it so I can hear it anytime I miss you (which is ALL the time during the day!)
