Halloween 2012

Ava the little Strawberry and the cutest Scooby Doo Ever!  (Getting Sam in costume required M&M bribery!)

 

 

 

 

 

Our cute little Peanut on her first Halloween.

 

 

Fisher and Frankie Owens with Sam and Ava - we were the first party guests to arrive - Sam was excited to see Frankie.

 We had a fun Halloween!  Mom and Dad went to Sam and Ava's daycare party where we danced, played games and ate Halloween cupcakes.

Sam and Ava got special trick-or-treat bags from Mema - so cute so had to take a picture!

Halloween night, we went to a soup dinner at Drew and Jolena's to celebrate Halloween!  It was a house full of people and lots of little kids in costume.  After dinner, we went trick-or-treating in the North End and on Harrison Blvd which had a lot of houses all decorated for Halloween.  Sam caught on to trick-or-treating VERY quickly and was a big boy walking door to door and picking out his candy - he would NOT let mom and dad carry his candy! 

 Sam trick or treating and checking out his treasures!

Ava was so tired she was passed out sleeping in the stroller the whole time we were trick-or treating.

Sam is checking out his loot and Ava is now wide awake and ready to assist!

Bath craziness with Ava

The splashing - she can keep this up for 20 minutes straight - much to Sam's dismay and moms! She is out of control in the bath!!

School pictures

Dressed up for school pictures - lets hope they cooperated more for the photographer!

Our cute crawler!

9 months old and FEROCIOUS!!

Ava is 9 months old today and she is already keeping us on our toes! She has been army crawling for awhile but now crawls as well (I think our wood floors makes the army crawl easier!). This last weekend we found her on stair two and climbing - time for gates soon! She also pulls herself to standing occasionally - furniture, on mom, and in her crib. She gives Sam a run for his money as well as she always goes after what he has. She loves baths - I actually had to remove her last night as her splashing was getting out of control!!! She is our adorable little peanut and makes us smile every day! I love sitting on the floor when I come home and having her crawl to and all over me!

Constant game of cat and mouse at our house!!

Ava mastering the plank position - funny girl is determined to find new ways to move!

Miss Big Stuff can pull herself up!!!!!
