Misha and Yanona

Fayfessels in Atlanta

Misha has finally taken to TV. He now say’s Vivo is his favorite movie



Some of the highlights from Grandpa Herb’s recent visit in Florida

















And back to Fernbank
And out to eat having a dance












Helena and Misha’s latest escapade has been piggy back rides and sometimes even Misha will try to carry Helena.
Also, looking for rabbits in the yard







The race is on, Florida bound





Garth vs Helena








It was « glice » so for mom and dad, it felt different. For Helena and Misha, they didn’t know any different. Everybody had fun. Winter has arrived in Atlanta
Waiting to go:












Misha is very musical and the Nest offers plenty of opportunity for it






One year ago from today, things were much different. Misha and Helena didn’t speak as much:
And they fought more:





































Both kids have taken a keen interest in drawing but Misha’s is a newer interest

Helena is practicing and getting better at cartwheels













Some true Southern Georgian culture and Fall Festivities





Misha’s jam was the hayride


Corn cob cannon
Berlap savvy slides
And “pumpkin” bowling




Misha refused to go tricker treating after just two houses. He instead wanted to give out candy for more than three hours. He hardly wanted to take a break to take a family photo as he was too nervous he might miss some people.



























And is enjoying it!








At restaurants too













On to harvestivus and friend reunion and state park visit. Texas continues to be hot as expected even in late September








































The lone star vacation begins







And sledding on sand




















Misha is becoming more and more comfortable at his new daycare. He say’s has several new best friends.











As misha’s language continues to develop, he asks many funny questions. Some recent, good examples about dogs when walking Sherlock:
“Why can’t get dogs pee in the toilet ? “
(When passing another brown dog)- “Is that Sherlock’s cousin ?”





Misha’s first new daycare birthday friend had a bubble party in the park. It was a big…pop


Helena’s favorite playground












ANCS ice cream social


Misha is adapting to his new daycare and having fun making new friends















Helena’s favorite playground in Atlanta is Chastain Park




The last stop on the trip before heading back to Atlanta was a visit to Papa’s old friend Brad from college. It was the first time all of the children go to meet too!









In Niscayuna NY!





In Vermont too!


Misha: “potabo “ = potato
