We made our first trip (as a family of four) up 95 this weekend. We went to visit Gigi & Giffer.  Daphne slept the whole way, both ways.  Amelia slept the last 15 minutes of only the way home (at 9:45pm!).  She is amazing at keeping herself awake, but was happy so that was fine.

You get a picture of Daphne with each, because the only picture I took of Amelia was her licking cinnamon bun off her elbow.


My arms and back are usually tired on Mondays after a weekend of holding Daphne. We had a lot of help this weekend from her great grandparents.

Amelia entertained all of us with many sessions on Gigi’s organ. We saw four tiny goslings that Gigi & Giffer weren’t too happy about (mostly about them getting bigger and sticking around), and many many birds. Daphne got to go to Ikea and learn about her Swedish heritage from Giffer’s side of the family. We got some luskers and some tollents and a couple padillups.

Another highlight was watching the Kentucky Derby.  We all picked horses and started hollering and cheering as soon as the gate opened.  Amelia was sort of surprised at all of the adults making so much noise.  Ethan picked the 2nd place horse and Giffer picked the 3rd place horse.

Next up, Daddy’s birthday. Amelia is really excited about the cake.
