Last year at this time Ava was too little to fully enjoy winter! This year we started her early! Her first time sledding!
Wait till she learns that most people don't get carried up the hill!
(Only very special granddaughters!)

I am 18 months old!!
I am wearing my Nike track suit that mom got for me this summer at a rummage sale for $3!!! I am sure she called most of you to tell you of the deal...she was REALLY excited! Sunday, November 16, 2008
All Ready for the First Snow Fall!
Ava was all bundled up in her new "big girl" jacket for the first snowfall! Too bad mom wasn't ready... the batteries died in her camera and only could manage this shot. Not my best work, but you can see how excited she is for the snow... She wasn't too sure at first. When a snowflake hit her, she fell to the ground! (But then she loved it! We couldn't get her to come back inside!)

Ava Loves Her Doll House!
Ava loves her doll house! For awhile she was using a tube of chapstick as a doll, but now we finally have a few dolls and animals that she likes to play with! Hopefully she won't be a totally screwed up kindergartner!Friday, October 31, 2008
She Likes It!
She Likes it... she really likes it! Last year she didn't even crack a smile in her costume. So I was a bit worried about this year! But she really had a blast!
Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium
Last weekend we went to Dubuque for a day trip and stopped at the Museum/Aquarium.
Ava driving the seamboat!
It is a little hard to see in the picture, but Kyle and Ava are in a bubble and there are snakes all around them. Ava liked it, but Kyle didn't want to stay under there for too long!

Ava's First Hair Cut!
Ok, so technically this wasn't her first hair cut.... you might remember the "wonderful" job that Grandma Sheridan did back in February. (if you dont... scoll down and check it out!) But I am treating this as the first. I think it has something to do with blocking traumatic memories from your mind! This haircut was much less painful!
Happy Birthday Great Grandpa Stephans!
Great grandpa turns 80 years old today! We had a surprise party for him this weekend!

A Beautiful Fall Day!
Today we spent the day at the Pumpkin Patch and Apple Orchard! We had a great time enjoying the beautiful day! And tomorrow we get to bake apple pie!
The Pumpkin Patch!
Ava searched long and hard for her perfect pumpkin. She liked the big ones, but ended up picking a tiny one that she could carry around with her all day long!
