Bath Time

Ainsley has a new, and quite odd, bath time habit. She has to have her own wash cloth, which usually is in her mouth where she can suck on it. I know...it's odd.

Nana's Knitting

Nana has been knitting sweaters for Ainsley this past year and we finally had a morning cold enough to wear one. It fit perfectly and her ears stayed warm!

Puh Puh

I've been trying so hard to get some decent pictures of Ainsley and Charlie (puh puh...her version of puppy), but with a fast moving child, a slow camera, and a black dog who doesn't photograph well, its hard. I finally got some. She really loves Charlie and lights up when she hugs on him. She loves Gabe too, but he doesn't let her love on him. Evidenced in the last picture, Gabe might be the smarter dog for not allowing her to. That is Charlie's nose barely showing between Ainsley's leg...that's her idea of a hug.

Happy Halloween...

Halloween Parade

Ainsley's daycare had a little Halloween parade this afternoon. According to her teachers she was the only one who liked being in her costume!





See the little twin fairies behind Ainsley in the middle row? They were born in January and their mommy is having another in February (or so I'm told)...it could be a lot rougher!

Pumpkin Patch Take 2 Part A

We made our second walk over to the pumpkin patch to take pictures of Ainsley in her Halloween costume. We are saving those pictures for Halloween (look for Pumpkin Patch Take 2 Part B around October 31). We might have to take a second shoot of those next weekend, especially if the weather cools off as forecasted. She wasn't too into it with the warmer weather this afternoon. We did however pick out the perfect pumpkin for carving (and roasting the seeds) which we hope to do next weekend. I'm fairly certain the pumpkin weighs more than Ainsley and she was quite happy to share her wagon with the pumpkin.

On The Go

Ainsley is walking all over the place now. Nana and Papaw won't get to see Ainsley for over a month and have requested some video of her walking. She's been camera shy with her new skills, but I finally got some last night. So this is for you Nana and Papaw!

Pumpkin Patch Take 1

We took our first walk to the pumpkin patch near our house today. Next week we will make the short trek over there again to take pictures of Ainsley in her Halloween costume. We went last year and took pictures, but Ainsley fell over, bumped her head and quickly ended the photo session. It didn't last much longer this year. This year I think the hay is to blame, or maybe it was because we waited to go until the Cowboys game was over which was right at dinner time. Here are a couple of the better pictures we did get. You can tell in the last one she was over it.

Ainsley's New Mountain...

Quilted Northern!

Afternoon Walk

We took a walk this afternoon with Ainsley's wagon. She said hello to some dogs along the way and greeted a shrub with some apprehension. She wasn't so sure about the funny looking green stuff, but after being brave and touching it once and quickly withdrawing, she touched it again and started tearing it off. I sense another walk coming tomorrow. The weather has been gorgeous!
