Since Amity was born, Petya has been hit with the hardest with adjusting to the changes in our family dynamics. She loves Amity, and wants to take care of her, but has also been regressing with potty training and in behavior (most likely for attention). We have really had to push and remind her that she is a big girl now, and she needs to act like one. We've changed the plates and utensils that she eats with, we have given her some other responsibilities, and have tried to spend some more one on one time with her. It's all been helping, and she is back to progressing...for the most part. I took her on this hike up Parker Mountain on a beautiful Friday afternoon.
She still enjoys hiking in the backpack, but if there are some challenging rocks to scramble, she wants out. My kind of girl.
On a cooler day in September, we decided to fire up the stove. Too cozy not to!
We also made it up to Grammy Haskins a few times. We took Elvis with us one of those times, and explored Dover a bit.
Hanging out at the old Mill property down the street from Grammy.
One thing I wish we had in our neighborhood was a sidewalk. It's so nice to be able to use walking as a mode of transportation. That's one thing I really liked about Livermore, we literally walked everywhere! We really didn't need a car, except for excursions to Yosemite or somewhere else off the beaten path.
Some outside time with Mumma and Petya.
Amity was happy hanging out with Grammy in her nice warm blanket while we watched General Conference.
