The Great Pumpkin

Avery got her first tooth, finally!!  It only took more than 13 months to push through, but it's a start! :)  Come on, teeth #2-16!!  The first tooth was the sloooooow pioneer; the rest of you can hurry up!
 
Naturally, once I gave up on capturing Avery's perfect smile for an offical one-year photo, she smiled freely for the camera.  Uh huh.  Nice.  Well, the joke's on YOU, Avery, because I've decided to put these on the wall instead! :)
 




We went to the pumpkin patch at Schuh Farms on our last beautiful weekend of summer-like weather.  Isn't it hard to believe it's October?



Papa, wanna go for a ride?
 
Now who's in the driver's seat, huh, Papa?

Must. Climb. Up.

Hello!


Chickens!


The three little pigs.

Cow kisses.


Off to find the Great Pumpkin!

Where could it be?


Is this it?

Great Pumpkin, where are you?

How about this one?

Did someone say pumpkin pie?

Mmmmm!

I'd like to find me some of that!
 

The Great Pumpkin is close, we can feel it!
 I
  IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN!
 
Oops!  Sorry, Avery!

 


We are definitely taking home this one!

Bon appetit! 



I LOVE to wear shades!

That's right, I'm cool

Born to be a star!

Won't you please take a picture of me, too?

What goes up, must come down...

...down...
 
... DOWN!

Daddy is a jungle gym!

(Insert evil laugh here.)

Avery wants in on the fun!


An intense phone call.





A snuggle with Alli's beloved Bunny and Bear.

Uh oh.

Mine.  End of story.

Snack time!


A tiara, wand, glass slippers, lei, and a cell phone.  What more could a princess ask for?

Duh, Mom, how about a prince?  Julian??  Or maybe "my favorite boy" at preschool, Gage? 
 
Again, shades.
 
Next up?  Halloween!
