Ayden is basically off to college! She is getting so big and can do so many big girl things. Ever since she learned how to crawl, she only wants to stand and walk. In a matter of seconds she is by my leg helping me cook in the kitchen and unloading the dishwasher. She smiles for the camera on cue and cuddles up with Dad. I can't believe how fast she is growing!
And so it is....
It was Ayden's first Halloween and we celebrated all month long. She helped Patrick carve the pumpkin (or watched) and he completed it with nice dental work. Don't want a dentist's pumpkin having bad teeth...so embarrassing! She enjoyed her trip to the pumpkin patch and playing in the hay. It still feels a bit unusual picking out a pumpkin in 90 degree weather, but the pictures are priceless. She's such a big girl now enjoying her veggies and fruits, finally napping well, and crawling inch worm style all over the house. She loves playing games with dad, her grandparents, and when Aunt Jill and Uncle Richard come to babysit. She is quite the talker and loves attention. She has two new teeth poking through on the bottom (just in time to stop breastfeeding!). Now all we have to do is potty train her so I don't have to change her "solid foods" diapers which could be used as a deadly weapon!
