Compare?

I know each child is their own person, however I just compared Ava and Alec's pictures at three months of age sitting in a Bumbo seat and HOLY MOLY!!! Check it out!

Halloween!!

Grandma the teddy bear!

"So Soft!!"

"Candy, please?"

"What a perfectly beautiful little Lady."

Ava had a great time learning about the fun and excitement of Halloween this year! She got to carve pumpkins with Daddy and Uncle Jordan, eat yummy treats that Grandma made, put on a costume and go Trick-or-Treating!!! It was very fun to see how much she has grown up and how she can handle herself in new, somewhat scary situations. We love you, Big Girl!! Alec is simply the sweetest little man ever. He takes it all in stride, watching every little detail as he chews on his fingers! Happy 1st Halloween, Alec!

Trooper

Ava loves to play outside and swing on her swingset. Due to the cold weather we have had, Alec has needed to get all bundled up (in his "blue suit" as Ava calls it) for those play times. Here he is, being a very good boy as Ava gets her play time in!!

Carosel

Ava got her first experience on the big horsies at Rivertown and she loved it! She isn't really one to have a meltdown if things don't go her way, but she was not happy to leave the ride!! Fun for her!!

BUMBO!

Alec enjoys spending time sitting up and interacting with the world while in his Bumbo seat...as you can see, Missy Ava does as well!! It is quite interesting that she fits so well and he is pretty snug!

3 months

I can't really even talk about the fact that Mr. Alec is three months old already. He is wonderful and amazing and the best little boy ever. We love him so very much! I wish I could slow time down for a while so I could enjoy this time in his life for longer!!! I love being the mother of two amazing children, it is such a blessing!

Anderson and girls

The "Apple Shooter" slide

We took the kids out in the freezing cold to see the animals at Anderson and Girls Orchard in Stanton. We had a great time! I can't get over how much Ava loves all of the animals and how brave she is. She MUST get it from her Aunt Lindsay!!! (Actually she gets it from Grandma--love you Mom!!!) We will definitely go back for more fun and excitement on a day when it is a tiny bit warmer.
