Fall Fun!

"I love my pumpkin shoes"

"Pumpkin picking is fun but the apple cider donuts were my favorite!"

"Grandma and Grandpa came with us"

"I want this one!"

"Me and my momma"

"I didn't know I had a whole Halloween wardrobe!"

"Sometimes my pants make me dizzy!"

First announcement: Scooter may be no more! Ava decided to learn to crawl last night. She was in position so I showed her how to do it and she did. For those of you who are fans of the Ava scoot, do not worry--she prefers it and this morning is right back to it. We'll see what happens.

This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch, she loves them. She carries around a small one hugging it and kissing it. I decorated the house during one of her naps and she woke up and was so excited although I have a witch that she is not so sure about.

She continues to do more and more each day. I love this age, it is so fun. She is sleeping better and now goes down for the night at 8:30 which is significantly earlier than her original time. She knows what she is not supposed to do although sometimes she will do it anyway and then look at me and shake her head back and forth. She is obsessed with my shoes and whenever she sees them on the floor she scoots over and puts them on. She is all over the place and yesterday in church she scooted out of the pew and almost got out of my reach but I grabbed her shirt and pulled her back in. Well I didn't know the priest saw us as we were in the back. He was laughing so hard he interrupted the service to describe what he had just witnessed. I think Ava sealed her fate and will start the nursery next week!

Ava and I would like to wish a very special baby a Happy First Birthday--Mr. Jamison!!! Happy Birthday little man, we wish we lived closer so we could come and celebrate with you! We love you and your family and are so thankful that we met on our visit trip, it is one of the best gifts next to getting you and Ava home. Enjoy your special day and tell your momma to get some tickets to come and see us. Ava is waiting!
