We had a blast at the Halloween party this year. It was really Ava's first "memorable" experience with holidays, and she loved it! She insisted on being Minnie Mouse and luckily I found a really good costume.
She went fishing...
She went digging...
And just hung out with the family!
Olivia was really happy all night and had a blast, too. Definitely a fun night to remember!
Mmmmmmm this bowl is yummy...
Gimme some more.....
That was pretty tasty!
She definitely did not care about the ice cream left all over her face!
Olivia is definitely showing us her distinct little personality.
Here are some of her favorite things to do:
Get out of the house- no matter where we go she is content.
Empty mommy's purse (shown below- yes, all the stuff spread around in the picture are the contents of my purse).
Play the piano and bang on a drum.
Follow mommy EVERYWHERE and cry if I leave the room and don't take her with me.
Play peekaboo with a blanket (I'm going to video and post this one b/c it is sooo cute).
She loves to eat table food and drink water 24/7. She can't get enough of it. So much, in fact, that she refused to nurse and I got mastitis this week!
I was tagged to describe 7 wierd things about myself. Here we go..
1. I've eaten rattlesnake, turtle, and alligator, and it was really good (I grew up in the FL Everglades, what can I say).
2. I like my food as bland as can be, with no spices, and only somewhat warm. Must be the English ancestory!
3. NOBODY gets near my bed unless they are freshly showered (or bathed).
4. Lance and I didn't kiss until we were engaged.
5. I don't believe in babyfood. I feed my babies REAL food.
6. I've been breastfeeding for almost 3 years straight (with a 6 month break while I was pregnant).
7. I wash my hands at least every 30 minutes.
Sarah, Helga, Emily, Celeste, Kathleen, Natalie, and Keira you are tagged!
I got some really great photos of Ava playing outside in our apartment complex. Enjoy!
Olivia loves to examine these baby dolls. As she was doing so I recognized an uncanny resemblence between her and them.
Soooo cute!
