Oh my goodness gracious! I haven't updated this thing in so long that I don't know where to begin. So, I'll be simple and just give a quick recap.
The picture above is of Ava and I at Hallmark on 10/27, the day we found out we are having another baby GIRL! We let Ava pick out baby sister's first stuffed animal and toy. Then Kevin and I picked out a few precious outfits for her. We did the same when we found out Ava was a girl so we made it tradition. One of the remarks I keep remembering from that day is when Kevin said, "Look at her (Ava). How can I look at her and not want another one?" It means so much that Kevin is the kind of Daddy who doesn't care if he has a boy or girl. After all, we don't get to choose. If God wanted us to have another girl, then we will do our best to raise her in a Godly manner and love unconditionally.
Halloween was precious! Our Snow White was beautiful and excited! She would walk right into people's homes and was picky with what candy she chose. Sometimes, she would turn back and go back for more. She also started dumping it out into the wagon. I think she thought if she had an empty bag, maybe she would get more. That's my girl - always thinking. :) ha!
Today, Ava got in bed with us and gave the best - arms wrapped around my neck - hugs! I melted! Then when we made breakfast for Daddy, she told him when he came in, "Daddy, breakfast is ready. I worked so hard!" Now imagine that with a 2 year old voice and it was just adorable.
October has been so much fun! We are having fun spending time with the 3 of us. Kevin had to travel to TX some but we have filled days and weekends with activities to enjoy the weather. We went to Fairhope, painted pumpkins, decorated cookies, celebrated my 31st birthday, Fall Funtastic at church, etc...
