Okay, I wish I could say I'm all caught up, but no such thing. I added a bunch of photos. The past two weeks were very busy and tons of fun! Straty's parents came to visit. Aunt Connie came to visit. We did some sight seeing. Thursday, Stephanos turned 3 weeks. I haven't figured him out yet. He eats a lot and loves to sleep on my shoulder. He dislikes burping and gas. Sadly at 3:30am he's a different baby. He eats and then for the next three hours proceeds to grunt, cry and keeps me up and guessing what he needs. He's a noisey baby. He still has some congestion from birth, which worries me. He's throwing up his milk and then wants more. I'm tired. I'm dozing now. Hands are drying out again!!!! Cracking and peeling. Owell, have a great weekend.

Last day before Yaya and Papou heads home
We had a wonderful lunch on Main Street and then walked the pier. The sun set was beautiful!
Beachcomber for Lunch
Auntie C-Rah, Aunt Connie, Nana, Amelia, Stephanos and myself went to Historic Crystal Cove for lunch at the Beachcomber. While having a yummy lunch a plane landed in the water! It had everyone's attention. We had fun walking over to the tide pools and looking at the sea urchins. What a beautiful place to go!
Did someone say DISNEYLAND?
We had a blast at Disneyland Saturday! We wanted to see the Christmas decor and I wanted some candy cane ice cream. Amelia and I both enjoyed it! We saw Santa, Mickey and Minnie, lots of lights and pretty trees! Disney sure does know how to bring out the magic!
Fall night on Balboa Island
We ate dinner at Amelia's, a fabulous Italian restaurant. After dinner, Amelia and I ran across the street to fetch some Hippo cookies, yummy!!!! Then we stopped for my first Gingerbread Latte. I usually get my first on Thanksgiving, but this year I feel like starting the Christmas spirit early! We had a wonderful walk, looking at lights and gazing into homes. What a great fall night!
Handmade gifts
Katherine, Uncle Dean's Mommy made Amelia and Stephanos their own knit caps. They look so cute!
Auntie Sarah and Aunt Connie to the rescue
"choo choo train?" Amelia asks. Those wanting to take their kids to ride the train at Crystal Court, it's still not up and running! Amelia LOVES her choo choo trains and was looking forward to riding one, since the carasoul was replaced with a huge Christmas tree. Auntie Sarah and Aunt Connie took care of Amelia so I could go get my hair fixed. They took her to South Coast to ride a rain deer instead! Thanks goodness for Aunties!!!!! Amelia also says C-Rah loud and clear. BaBa is either baby or brother.
Yaya and Amelia at Tumble Class
Amelia LOVES her tumble class. She gets so excited on Fridays when it's time to head to class! We will for sure be signing up in January.
