Weekly Update


For Easter Sunday the family made the trip to the farm. Spent the afternoon visiting with grandma (and greatgrandma Sweeney), while Papa hung out with Grandpa and the uncles. Amélia wore a pretty dress but unfortunately only wanted to be motoring around on the floor, so on went the pants. The Easter Bunny brought Mealie bubbles, a yellow ball, and lots of other goodies.
Then on Wednesday the family picked up the new car. Bright red 2005 Wave... it's a standard so Mommy's not doing much driving. LoL Along with the new car Amélia got a new "big girl" car seat. It's for 5-80lbs so it will be rear facing until she needs front facing and then it can act like a booster seat! Mealie seems to enjoy the new chair.
Friday was Amélia's 7 month birthday... it's hard to believe she's already over half a year old. They grow soooo quickly. Also on Friday Amélia and Mommy went for a walk around Mirror Lake (while Papa was in physio) and stopped to play at a small park. Mommy was smart & brought a camera to show everyone pictures of Amélia playing in the swing.
Yesterday (Saturday) Auntie Liane and her bf came to visit Amélia. Mommy made supper & dessert and everyone sat around visiting. It was a nice time. Later, after Aunt Liane and Brett left Uncle Devin and his friend came over to play video games. They got to the house late and then after 2 hours of fighting with the networking and not succeeding Devin and Derik went home. It's too bad it didn't work out better but at least Amélia got to see the boys. Derik is a favorite with Mealie, she always likes seeing him.
