November 11

What??  How is already November?  The year continues to slip away and we do our best to hold our moments together our hearts.  

Little Buddy started the month by crushing his Step Up for Sanfilippo Challenge!  So proud of him.

Ready to go get some steps in!

     

He did it!  Over 11,000 steps for this 11 year old!

Another big event this month was a WILLPower Golf Tournament.  Little Buddy had a great time greeting the golfers and even did some putting!

     

Ready to start the tournament!

     

Getting some putting practice in with Uncle M!

Grateful for all our supporters.

And then it was time...this is Halloween, this is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween!  We had a wonderful time this month gearing up for the holiday.  We checked off an important item of business, getting our pumpkins!

We love this farm!  So excited they did a Pumpkin Patch this year.

     

Ready for the corn maze!

Can we make it through the maze?

We did!  Such a fun afternoon.

Pumpkin decorating fun!

Halloween crafts!

And then it was time for the main event!  The Scooby gang was ready for trick-or-treating.

     

Happy Halloween!

And now with time change, we are ready to head into the end of the year.  Holidays, here we come!

The cutest reminder to turn your clocks back one hour. 

Height and Weight

Our Little Buddy continues to work to make sure that he's not so little by weighing in at 99.6 pounds!  Eeeek!  I'm worried he'll close in on 100 by next month.  He is now growing off his growth chart and nearly 61 inches.   Where did my little boy go???

Always our hero!

Personality

Our happy boy isn't too happy about Daddy going back to the office and Momma having to get him up!  

     

Morning?  Already.  No thank you!

Don't worry, we still get our happy, smiling guy a little later!

Developmental Changes

Little Buddy is doing well at school and in all his therapies.  It's especially been great to be back at horse therapy!  He even got to ride a new horse, Ghost.

Staying strong!

We also got to add something new into our routine:  adaptive faith formation!  We are so excited for Little Buddy to grow in his faith in a way that is meaningful and appropriate for him.

     

Enjoyed his first class with Amazing Grace!

Fun Tidbits

Little Buddy may not care much for the traditional rewards kids get from their school fundraisers, but he does LOVE to see his name on a paw print!  So of course we donate to the personalized paw print level so we can get smiles like this...worth it!

     

It's like his personal Walk of Fame!

We have had some luck in that the Covid vaccine has been approved for Little Buddy's age group.  By this time next month, Little Buddy will be partially protected and ready for some Christmas Cheer!

Until then,

LBM
