More Chuckie Cheese, Please!

We had planned to take Ava to see some horses with Aunt Lisa today, but I (Mommy) am sick and VERY allergic to something about horses, so we opted to check out the new Chuckie Cheese instead.
Ava warms up with some "littles" play with Daddy.
Her first ride....she loves it!
Don't be fooled by the expression, she cried after being removed from this ride, four or five rides later.
Yep, she's a thrill-seeker...that's from Grandma & Aunt Lisa I think, oh and Papa Tim too!
Can't this thing go any higher??
Ava and Daddy check out the phone.Hello?

Working off some turkey!

New coat from Granny & Papa and new hat & mittens from Aunt Lisa! Thanks guys, I'm really warm!
Ava armed with sidewalk chalk!
She's a mean, lean drawing machine! Oh, no, she didn't draw the kitty...but she does "meow" to it.

Ava helps Mommy + Daddy put up the Christmas tree!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Ava modeling her Thanksgiving Day attire. She's so cute!! And starting to become a ham too.

Bath time fun!!

More from Halloween....

Ava giving the lion suit a test run around the house. Grandma made the outfit, Mommy helped....minimally, mostly just creative direction. We were afraid she wouldn't wear it at all, so this was a good sign.
Mommy & Grandma putting the hood on. This had to be done last minute before we took pictures. Ava is not always too excited with things on her head, but she was a real trooper here. She even roarred for us...sometimes. We got some footage on film, that's to come!
