Stepson's Quilt Day 1

 I had planned on having my stepson's quilt done before the construction started, but life is complicated and never seems to go the way we plan it. 

I am finally getting started on it now and want to give it to him for Christmas, though it is not his Christmas gift.  

I will also be working on quilts for my two stepdaughters and for Skye, so keep an eye on those videos coming out at a later date.

Apartment Remodel Update

 So they were originally supposed to start the remodel on our apartment back in September.

It is now December and they still haven't started on our apartment yet.

I swear the apartment looks like a tornado hit and it is driving my OCD and anxiety crazy.

Even Happy Babies Sometimes Cry

 Waverly is mostly a happy baby, but not all the time.  She cries sometimes too and not always for an issue that we can figure out right away.


Since I always seem to get her on video when she is happy and enjoying herself, I felt it was only fair to show her when she isn't happy also.

Baby Giggles

 One of the best things about Waverly's easygoing personality is that she is easily amused.  

This is one of the ways I entertain her in places that can be kinda boring, like waiting for the pediatrician to come to do a well-baby exam.  

Wishing a Merry Christmas to everyone!

Watch the giggles here:

Flashing Teeth

 Little Miss Waverly's teeth are much easier to see these days and she grins to flash them around.  You can see them every time she giggles and she does that a lot.

Left Knee Surgery

 I have been having some issues with both of my knees.  They both make crunching noises when they are bent completely and ache like crazy a good portion of the time.


They started by trying cortisone shots.  When that didn't work, they tried an injection that was jelly like.  I can't remember the name of it, but there was a series of shots in each knee.  They did one shot a week in each knee for three weeks in a row.  This didn't help either.  In fact, it made the ache worse making the joints feel swollen and difficult to bend.


Well, on November 21st, they went in and did an orthoscopic surgery of my left knee.  They only do one at a time for these.  I am still waiting on my follow up from the surgery to find out exactly what was done, but I was told a few things.  


Apparently, there was something floating around in my knee.  I'm not sure what at this point, but they did remove it.  They also repaired damage to the cartilage under my knee cap.  Once I know more, I will update the post.

Waverly Playing with Athos

 I am not sure how Athos knows that Waverly is a baby, but he certainly tries to protect her, even when she isn't really in any danger.  When he is in his cage, he will talk back and forth with her.  He will whine, she will coo at him.  It is very cute.

When he is out of the cage, he wants to be close by her, tries to lick her, and if she screeches, he lunges like she is being hurt.

Waverly's First Teeth

 Well, it finally happened.  Waverly finally got her first teeth.  Like her momma and grandma, she got her first set of teeth two at a time.  Certainly makes for one cranky teething baby, but makes the teething process happen faster.

She is so cute with her new teeth and she is certainly having fun trying to bit things now, including anything she can get a hold of, whether its your finger or one of her teething toys.  They go straight to her mouth for her to try to chomp on them.

How to Use Emgality Migraine Medication Shot

 Emagity is a once a month shot to help prevent migraines.  I have been on mine for a while, but recently a friend asked how to use it after she was prescribed it from her Neurologist.  I was able to walk her through how to use it over video chat, she is back in Indiana and I'm in Tennessee so I couldn't just go and show her.

After walking her through it, I wondered if anyone else would need that same information.  When my next shot time came around, I recorded it in the hopes of helping someone else use the shot properly.

Waverly Standing

 Little Miss Waverly is growing way too fast.  It is hard to believe she will be a year old in March.  It seems like she was just born.

She is crawling much more now than she has up to now.  So far she isn't pulling herself up to stand yet, but she is learning to stand and balance with some help.

Waverly & Pops

 When Waverly was born, we had to decide (me & the Big Guy) what Waverly was going to call us.  In my family,  the names we used for our grandparents was either Nana or Grandma and my grandfathers were both called Papa.  

As of right now, we have Waverly calling me Grandma and she calls the Big Guy  Pops.  She definitely loves her Pops.

Stepson's Quilt Day 2

 This is Day 2 of working on my stepson's quilt.  

I thought it would be nice to record my progress on the quilt.  I record before I start working on it on that day so that I can keep track of what I finished and where I am on making his quilt.

Grumpy Bear Halloween

 This was Waverly's first Halloween, and while we know she probably won't remember it, we still wanted her to have a cute costume.

Skye found this Grumpy Bear costume on Amazon and couldn't wait for Waverly to be able to wear it.

See the video here:


See ya soon!
