Early Boo

Ava had her Halloween party at daycare today. She dressed in her halloween best equipped with a strobe pumpkin on her shirt and strobe candy corn on her socks. She really liked the lights. Here she is talking on the phone (maybe she's talking to the Great Pumpkin).

Bulldog Walk Through

At the bulldog walkthrough, I got to ride on my daddy's shoulders to see the cheerleaders, band, and players...

hang out with grandma, Aunt Tracy, and Andy...
(Note the beads grandma is wearing. Ava was very nice to loan those to her since she is obsessed with wearing them right now.)

get a pawprint painted on my face...

and learn how to scream my name through a megaphone from Carly. As Elmo would say, "I'm pooped!"

Cheerleader In Training

We were at MSU Saturday for Homecoming. Grandpa was teaching her some new cheers. She's been practicing her cheers for months at home with her daddy.

"Do it, do it, do it like a big dawg..."

She always reverts back to her favorite form of cheering....clapping.

Kisses and Pansies

Look mama... I picked you a pansy!

Ava is really into kissing the pups right now. Here she is spotting her prey...

Emma gets her kiss...

and Ellie gets hers too.

Cruisin with Daddy

Ok, she wasn't really riding in the jeep, but it still looked funny with her sitting in the front seat. I think she was definitely wanting to take it off road.

Fall

Ava helped me plant mums. It's so sad for us that it is getting dark earlier now--she loves to play outside.
