Hangin' with Logan at the Farm

I'm pretty sure Ava heard in her head "jumpy jump jump jump jump jump....jumpy jump jump jump jump jump".....





















Here's Christy, Logan and Ava riding the teeter totter!























Can you tell it was hot this day? Too hot for October!


















So many pumpkins, so little time!

Ava's first "salon" haircut

Here's pictures of Ava's first "real" haircut. Should I be ashamed that I'm a little sad she didn't cry or give me some good material to work with? I know- that's very selfish. She was more than accommodating to her stylist as long as she kept the animal crackers coming!

These boots were made for walking....dogs!

Cowboy Ava walking her best buddy, Max. Is anything cuter than a little kid in cowboy boots?! I'm pretty sure she's got the runway walk down.....look out Baby Ralph Lauren. What? That doesn't exist?










"These boots were made for running....."


















Here's Ava helping gampa Ed blow out his birthday candles. Happy birthday gpa!













Ok, I tried really hard to get some cute pictures of Ava for gampa Ed's birthday present.....this is almost the best I could do.















Ahhhh, here we go. Babydoll to the rescue!

Snacks and skin....

"What....." Ava learned how to open doors and the pantry door is her favorite!

















OK, not the angle I initially saw when I peeked in Ava's room during her recent nap but had to edit the picture for obvious purposes.......Here was my thought process "Is that Ava's bare butt in the air?" "While, yes it is." "Didn't I put her down for a nap fully clothed with a diaper attached?" "While, yes you did." How is it that she's somewhat naked during the nap?" "Well, she's learned that she has more control than mom and dad think over what she wears at all times....see pictures below.....





So after a few pictures, Ava either "sensed" someone peeking at her backside, or she just was simply done napping. What this picture doesn't show is her peeing all over her bed and spitting out her binkie to just smile. Should have grabbed the video camera!













Since we're on a Naked theme.... We've started a new routine after our evening bath. With my recent knee surgery, I have been getting Ava out of the bath, drying her off, and letting her run around for a little while I get situated for lotion, diapers, pj's, hair comb and teeth brushing. It's just the only way I can work it since I was on crutches for so long. So, with her new found "freedom" with no diaper and a gimpy mom who can't chase her, she's been running around (sometimes peeing around) the house for some time before we can catch her and get her dressed. It's started a new behavior where she just likes to run and hide for us for no apparant reason. Being naked just seems to make it more fun for her!







Night time is so fun......Wes doing his workout and always entertaining Ava!
