HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM THE LIL' STINKER
















FALL IS HERE











October often brings nice fall days for Brookings, which was the case last week. We were able to enjoy sunny days and evening walks before the rains start in. I took advantage of the sun to get some fun fall pictures of Ava. And also got some pre-Halloween pictures of Ava with grandpa in her skunk costume.

HERE KITTY KITTY
















Ava has taken up a new fascination with our cat Cleo (who prefers to ignore and stay out of reach of Ava). Ava gets so excited when she actually gets her hands on kitty. Also this past week Ava had her first encounters with grandma Sharon's puppy and one of her horses. It looks like Ava is going to want a petting zoo when she gets older.

Football Sundays











Dad is ever so excited football season is here (mom swears it just ended and can't possibly be starting again). Ava however seems to really enjoy watching with dad. And Ava's latest trick is sitting up. These pictures are from Oct. 5-11.

Beginning of October
















Well I am very far behind on posting ever since I started back to work. Here are some pictures from the beginning of October. Included are pictures of Ava's first encounter with "solids". Gabe and I are so glad we had the camera and video camera on hand as the faces were priceless.
