Avery's Halloween Party-Trial Run on Costume

Avery's daycare had their Halloween parade and party today. Gma and Gpa Stone and Daddy came to watch. I got to try out the home-made bunny costume I made for Avery and I think it went well! Only problem was that her bunny ears wouldnt stay up and she kept taking them off! I'll have to rig them up before Halloween. She looked so cute!

Out of Nowhere...

Not a good way to spend our weekend... after nap yesterday, Avery woke up vomiting and continued to do so until late in the evening. She spent the afternoon vomiting and sleeping on our laps. It was pitiful. Not sure where this stroke of luck came from, we had a great morning playing outside and then lunchtime came and she was not quite herself. She didnt eat lunch, seemed very tired. So I put her down and she slept 2 hrs. Then it hit the fan. No more puke after about 9pm last night, she is still sleeping now (945am). Hoping today is better!
Too bad we had to cancel with Gma and Gpa Stone last night.....still got those steaks??

Pumpkin Patch at Mike's Farm

Last weekend we went to Mike's Farm for a hayride to the pumpkin patch. Avery brought a friend and Grandma and Grandpa Stone came along. We had a great time. The girls enjoyed themselves and talked all about the hayride. They had fun picking out their pumpkins, feeding the goats, chickens, and sheep, and pulling hay out of the bails. It was a fun afternoon.

Seafood Festival

We decided to face the crowd and go down to the seafood festival. Avery was able to ride a few rides. She was hesitant at first, she didnt enjoy the one called the barrel of monkies that much. She loved riding the horses on the carousel, especially with her friend Morgan. We had fun and I guess it was worth the 3$ a ride! At least the weather was nice, not scorching like last year.

Our Silly Girl

Visit with family in July

Mandy, Andrew and Maddie came to visit at the coast this summer. It was fun to see Maddie and Avery be able to play together some. Although the trip was less than smooth, we certainly enjoyed having them here!

Life's a Beach

I know I havent posted in a while (um, try about 9 months!). But I am vowing to do better. Over the summer we didnt do much. Just went to the beach a lot. Avery loves the sand and water. She tires us out wanting to play in the waves. The last few times we have gone out, the water has been very rough due to tropical storms and hurricanes. One time a couple months ago the water was nice and Jeff was able to ride the body board with Avery. She loved it!

Here is a recap of our summer at the beach.
