Lauren and "ABA"

Here are some super cute pics of Ava and Lauren. Lauren is Kim's daughter, my good friend that I met at Fairview several years ago. She is a 1st grade teacher there and our girls go to Jeanne's together. Lauren will be 2 in December. She loves her ABA! If she gets to Jeanne's first, she always greets Ava at the door and has named her dolly's Aba, too. She loves her---when her mommy isn't paying too much attention to her. :-)

I especially love the picture that Lauren is pointing to Ava's bow. So cute! Check out Ava's patchy 'do! :)

Rader Pumpkin Patch

We met Laura and Dave in our Childbirth classes while we were both pregnant. We never exchanged numbers or anything and though Laura was due 5 weeks after me, she ended up having Izzy 2 days after me. Travis ran into her at the hospital as we were leaving - just by chance! We're so glad or else we wouldn't have hooked back up. Since then, we've kept in contact and have gotten together a few times. Yesterday we went to lunch at Moe's (YUM!) and then took the girls to Rader's Pumpkin Patch. It was C.O.L.D.!!!!!! but we had fun. We got a few pics anyway and I thought Ava looked super cute in her 'So Cute It's Scary' outfit even if her ski hat didn't match! :)
