Grandma took this photo of us getting some fresh air with mommy…

Playing ball in a neighbors house today… we were outside for most of the day.

McKenna is my best girlfriend, she yells “Aaaaaaa-vaaaaahhhhh” when she sees me.  I yell back “NO, McKenna” because I am sure she is going to hug me.  But I really love her.  Today I asked her to sit down so we could play ball.

It was a simply gorgeous autumn day today.  We got very dirty.  This is our sign of a “good” day…

I swear I didn’t know that McKenna was dressed for a birthday party when I coaxed her to go into the retention pond with me.  Really.

Who needs pedals when you can just lift your feet up and WHEEEEEEEEEEE….

I am tending to my dolly, making sure she is safe and secure before we go for our walk.

“So I have an idea about how we can get mommy to let us outside, listen up, it is GOOD…”

We are trying to force feed kitty Buttercup some of Jessie’s puppy food.  It is not working so well, but we kept at it for a long time!

I am hungry (hence chewing on the bib) but would still rather go outside (hence pounding on the door).

I have my own laptop (actually *three*!) but this is mommy’s and so is the one I prefer… and I am teaching Keira how to use it to.  If you press certain buttons, it makes some interesting noises.  And so does mommy when she sees us on it.

This is one of mommy’s favorite photos, the colors are just so pretty and the subject is, well… me!  🙂   Grandma took it. 

Here I am with my little brother Ryder, celebrating Keira’s birth mommy’s birthday.  I don’t think he likes girls (yet).  He is so cute, he has “big eyes”, I always talk about them when mommy mentions Ryder.

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY to my darling baby sister in Louisiana!  I love you, we all do!  We cannot wait to see you again Bella!!!  mmmm-wah kisses, Ava

Mommy is behind again with the laundry, can you tell?   🙂

It was birth mommy Val’s 22nd birthday on Wednesday, here she is with Paul when we went out to dinner.  Happy Birthday Val!!!!

Here is the cute ladybug we played with… he tickled but we enjoyed it!

We invited Gammy, Val, Paul, and baby Ryder to our favorite park… we had *fun*!  I got lei’ed, and I love them, I wear them around the house all the time now…

Rolling down the hill…

Here Ryder, auntie said it was okay for me to eat this sand… would you like to try it?  (uh, noooooo….) 

Grandma Connie knew Rich from the group that was playing in the bandstand – they were playing “Let’s Do the Twist”… can you tell?

I am learning where to put my feet to climb this.  I made it just *inches* from the top, and then I decided I didn’t feel as delighted as I thought I would be!  Gammy, mommy, and the lady running this obstacle course helped me down…  Everyone was very proud of me, though, because no other 2-year olds can do this like I can!

I may be little, but I am not always so innocent!  I push my sister and *know* that I should not do it.

I am very serious about this prize spinning wheel because I just watched my sissie win a yo-yo.
