And Three Will Become Four . . . . . . .

Yep - It's official! Ava is going to be a big sister next May. We're just over 12 weeks into it and Ava seems pretty excited about it. Of course she doesn't understand it, and she'll probably want to send the baby back when it gets here, but she seems pretty thrilled about it - or at least her new shirt. :) We're really excited! (Especially now that the morning sickness is fading - LOL!)


My daughter is a genius . . . . . . .

I don't say that because I'm prejudice. She proved it yesterday. Then I took a picture to prove it. :) I was sitting in the family room and she was eating peanut butter and honey toast. She started yelling to me, "Mom! Mom! It's a doggie! It's a doggie!" I walked over to her and here is what I saw:




Yep - Whether purposely or not, Ava's toast was shaped like a dog and she wanted to point it out to me! Whether that proves she's a genius or not, I can't be sure, but I did think it was pretty insightful! :)

Our Final Halloween Post . . . . . . . .

This better be my last post. I am so over Halloween at this point. I cannot believe how busy we've been. With that said, Ava was the CUTEST little Fairy Princess Trick or Treater I have EVER seen. She LOVED it. After a couple of houses it's like the whole concept clicked and she was thinking, "Wait a minute. So you're telling me that if I knock on these people's doors, they will all give me candy? Score!" She just waltzed around the neighborhood saying trick or treat and thank you over and over. The only times she hesitated or stuck really close to us was when something scary came about. Apparently, fairy princesses DO NOT like scary things. I don't blame her. Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure and I promise: No more Halloween posts! On to November!

Fairy Princess Diva - She LOVED her costume.
