Sweet Potato Pancakes

Avery helped me make some sweet potato pancakes this morning. 

SO PROUD OF HERSELF!

Meme let me A eat the pureed sweet potato while I cooked up some pancakes.

Mmmmm

best little helper.

3 Little Bears

Avery's school had a "3 Little Bears Go Camping" performance on Friday. Avery was a camper that sat around the campfire and ate marshmallows the whole time. We love her school and great things they do for them like this. 

the 3 year olds played the actual 3 bears and Goldilocks.

Fall = Football

Football is here and Avery is ready with her Who Dat gear.

We ask Avery to show us her teeth to get these kind of pictures.  =)

Enjoying our bouncy slide in the back yard.

Boots and Puddles

This sweet girl is OBSESSED with shoes right now. Her shoes, my shoes, Richard shoes, as long as she can put them on and prance around the house over and over again. Her she is playing with puddles in her rain boots.

here is another "ta-da" shot.  =)

Avery started "school" this month. It was a little tough on Avery adjusting to the new people and new schedule and really tough on Mommy. The second week Avery caught a stomach bug that was going around, no fun. Thankfully Dede was able to help watch her for us. 2 days later....Dede and I both got the stomach bug. Two days later, Richard got the bug. It was brutal but we all survived. We were able to enjoy the Family Day they held before we all got the bug. We absolutely LOVE the teachers and Avery is doing great now.

I know, I'm behind on posts again. I'll try and catch back up. Here's some pics from a June weekend:

loves that dog!

likes to point out his eyes to everyone.

I ask Avery to say ta-da before I take a picture and this is what I get.   =)
