10/20: Apples, apples everywhere

on October 21, 2008

Thanks, Jackie - The potatoes were yummy!

 

After another great night’s sleep, I woke up smiling and ready to go!

I finished my cereal and prunes in record time, played with Grandma, then took a two hour nap. G’ma dressed me in my new Halloween outfit – and my cool Halloween socks from AS!

We headed to J’ville to visit some of G’ma’s friends. We stopped by the school district office, teh Regional Office of Education and the Job Center. I met Judy, Marsha, John, Paula, Debbie B., Michelle, Terry, Debbie T., Leslie and Carolyn – whew! Everyone was so nice to me! They smiled and made silly faces and sounds to impress me. They were so much fun!

Then we went ot see AS at GG Droste’s house and Great Aunt Jackie fed me my lunch – more yummy mashed potatoes. I love them! I was so excited to be eating them agian that I even had them on my nose! GG Droste told stories about feeding Jackie when she was a baby.

Aunt Sarah showd me all the apples she was preparing for applesauce, apple butter and apple pies. Boy did the kitchen smell good! AS let me oversee the applecooking for a little while, and I even got to sneak a bite of warm, plain apples. Yum!

Tonight I got to hand out with G’pa while G’ma left to teach a class (AS was still at GG house finishing the apple projects)! He played with me on teh floor (we had toys and remote controls everywhere!) and even fed me my night-time bottle. Who knew he was so good at this baby stuff? I thought he just made sawdust!

AS finally came home – with a warm Apple Pie! She gave me my bath, we read “Good Night Moon” and I drifted off to dreamland. Goodnight Mom and Dad!

Wow…That’s a lot of apples Sarah!

    Maggie,
    Hello. your adventures in Dow sure do sound like fun. Monday must have been apple day. Your second cousins(?) Evie and Addie helped me make applesauce yesterday. Evie had loads of fun eating the cut apples and helping out. Addie just hung out since she is only 2 months old. Have fun with your Dow adventures.
    Aunt (cousin) Peggy
