Friday With Granny And At Mall Of America


M meets his Great-great Grandma R for the first time. It was quite a historic meeting of the 5th generation - we were just missing Jerry R. to make it complete, but very nice to get all four generations in the same place at once anyway. M especially had fun checking out all of Granny's wheeled gear-the walker and chair. He entertained her neighbors with his friendly waves and proud display of the number one to tell them how old he was.


M takes a ride on the carousel at Mall of America on Friday morning. Not much shopping that day, but lots of fun, checking out the entertainment at the mall.
Here is M and Daddy on a pint-sized roller coaster, which he loved. You can see a slight mark on M's face in this shot. He took a header at the house Thursday, and caught a nasty rug burn under his left eye. It didn't slow him down much.
Lunch at the cafe above. M loved the robotic alligator, though he did not attempt the penny toss into the roaring maw. He does do a fierce immitation of the sound of the roar though. Lunch included a thunder and ligtning storm every 20 minutes. Not a lunch for the weak of heart.
Musical entertainment featured a children's choir. They sang "jingle bells", so M. was very happy.
Finally, ended the day back at Granny's room where M was presented with a Turkey shaped cookie. A big hit, especially eating the icing off of it! More trips up and down the halls, greeting the neighbor's dog and seeing a beautiful bald eagle flying overhead as we went out the doors of Angels Care on Thursday.

Thursday At Cannon


First meeting and lots of smiles!!


Thanksgiving meal in the dining hall with Granny. Lots of visitors that day and tables nicely decorated with a reserved sign for Elaine and guests.

Some "under the table" time of course as M checked out the surroundings.

Back at the house at the dining table-light dusting of snow on the ground outside, and the outdoor thermostat in clear view...M. likes to say "Brrrrrr"

Oh, yeah, and MORE under the table time.
