Avery was being so silly I wanted her to look at me and show me her mouth so I could get a picture of her full of paint but She kept opening her mouth up wide and then turning her head to the side.

Pumpkin Painting
I decided that this year, having 2 very busy toddlers, that we would paint pumpkins instead of carving them. So I got crayola paint and lots of fun paint brushes and set the girls and some friends to work. They had so much fun. The first thing Avery did was take a taste of the paint (thank goodness it's non toxic), and then she painted for 2 minutes. The 3 boys lasted about 10 and Jinger started crying 1 hour and a 20 minutes later when I told her we had to clean up! She loved painting and didn't move from her sopt the entire time. I guess I will have to enroll her in some art classes.

The Pumpkin Patch
Saturday was a beautiful fall day and decided to take the girls to the Pumpkin patch! They had so much fun picking out pumkpins. Their only qualifications for a good one was being able to pick it up. They didn't like the big ones Galen and I picked out for them. They had a mini maze made of hay and they had fun walking through it.
Jinger wanted to pull the cart and sit on it at the same time.
I have decided that its impossible to get a good family picture of all of us, so this was the best one of mom and dad, and the girls are cute anyway! Can you tell they are more interested on the gourd than a picture? Well that was a dried gourd and when you shook it the seeds rattled around, the girls had a blast playing with it.
We ran into Becca Bruce and Gavin when we were there. Aren't These 2 silly, they blend right in!
Avery serious like always!

Halloween Shoot
I decided to do a photo shoot with my girls and their cousin Kaleb earlier this week. Despite the fact that there were 2 toddlers, and an 8 month old, and despite ther fact that NONE of them were all to happy about having their costumes on I got some pretty cute shots!
That's about as big of a smile I can ever coax out of miss Avery. She just usually looks at me like I'm crazy. And she never sits still long enough for me to get a clear shot.
I don't know if Kaleb was tired of getting his pictures taken or if he was afraid of the girls in their costumes. He was so sad. Jinger and Avery were so concerned.
Jinger is always pretty eays to get a good shot of even when she is being silly.

Kaleb has such a sweet smile and he looked so darn cute in his little horse costume!

I hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!

She knows what she wants!!
Little Avery has a cold. She is so miserable , and I feel so bad for her. But I have to say that even when she is sick she still makes me laugh. Today Jinger, Avery and I were in the living room and I was helping Jinger dress her baby. Avery kept trying to lean around me saying "nose" and pointing to her nose. So, I'm attempting dress the baby and play the game. "yes, that's your nose" "Wheres your mouth?" but she was adamant about showing me her nose. Well after a few minutes of that miss Avery disappears. I finally get the doll dressed the way Jinger wants it and I start thinking that Avery was being awfully quiet so I went to find her and this is what I found....
I guess she wanted me to blow her nose! If I wasn't going to do it she was going to take care of herself!! What a girl!

Beauty
I love fall! It's my favorite time of the year. The colors are beautiful, but I also love the feeling in the air! It's not too hot or too cold. It just feels clean and crisp. Today The girls and I went on a walk.... well it was more like walk a few steps, then stop and look at some neat rock or bug or bird. Then take another couple of steps and then find something new. I think we went a total of 50 feet in all. LOL! I love watching their eyes light up with wonder and their excitement as they bring me their treasures. I so enjoyed showing them the colorful leaves on the trees around us. Asking them what colors they were and hearing Avery say purple to every one of them made me laugh. It's the most amazing thing to watch them discover the world. Even though I have been a mom for more than 2 years it still brings a smile to my face and fills my heart with joy. I hope I never get used to it!
