Amy took some time last week to gather up a few bags of leaves in the front yard, although not before Sam decided he wanted to check out this leafy pile of fun! Photos from Sam frolicking in the leaves can be found in the gallery found here.
Changing Colors at the Chattahoochee
It was unseasonably warm on Saturday, so we trekked off to the Chattahoochee Nature Center to see what there was to explore. Sam enjoyed the wandering Canadian Geese most of all, followed by the owls. Check out the photo gallery here.
GNN: Grouch News Network
Yes, that’s our very own Anderson Cooper reporting live from Oscar’s trashcan, sporting a mike with a ‘GNN’ moniker on it as he taped a segment for an upcoming episode of Sesame Street. I hope Sam doesn’t get confused and mistake our gray-haired reporter/anchor with his old buddy Oscar. TVNewser reports this episode was taped this week but doesn’t air until next September. But the photo above is pretty priceless.
Dada Nene
Sam has been calling Joey “Da da” for quite some time now, but would just smile when asked my name. He is quite capable of saying ma ma ma, but has never put two and two together. But why follow the crowd when you can create your own language. As of this past week, I am officially “Ne Ne” (pronounced nay nay). Perhaps a derivation of Amy? We all had a big smile when he saw us hugging, pointed and said Da da Ne ne. Precious.
