Fall in Indiana

We have been having so much fun outside the past few weeks. Here are a few fun pictures! 

Potty Master

Avery impressed both of us today when everything seemed to click for her. We have spent the last three days inside following her around and asking her constantly if she needs to potty but it worked! She has a day at home with grandma tomorrow to practice more. Awesome weekend - awesome new milestone for our girl. 

A good undies picture! Cute butt! 

Throwing away the diapers! No turning back. 

Some fun family activities!! 

Potty Training

Potty training weekend has started! A four day no more diapers extravaganza! I am on duty today and it has been an adventure. Two breakdowns and ten pairs of panties and we made it through the morning with 1 pee-pee in the potty. Wish us luck!! She sure is cute in panties! 

Double fisting the fluids!!! 

Fall Photo Shoot

We had a wonderful evening at home playing in the backyard. Ivan made a pile of leaves and Avery proceeded to bury me. She also discovered the hammock and had a nice relaxing swing. This is such a wonderful time of the year to enjoy the outdoors with a kid!

Food entertainment

We struggle like all parents to get our child to eat fruits and vegetables. It helps when the fruit is so very entertaining!! 

Hilton Head vacation

I posted pictures on facebook but forgot to put them here. We had a great time visiting Hilton Head a few weeks ago. Avery enjoyed the beach, pool, and riding bikes. It was a nice getaway for all of us! 

Pumpkin picking

We had a great fall morning spent at the pumpkin patch. It included riding a little train, a hayride, feeding animals, and picking out pumpkins. It was a first time experience for both Avery and Ivan! This will be a repeat in the years to come. 

New hairstyle

Ivan has been working hard to be the daddy that does his girl's hair - watching YouTube videos and practicing a lot. He succeeded today - what an awesome Daddy!! 

A wild day at the zoo with Dad!

Ivan is finishing up lots of major med school things this week so he took a rewarding trip to the zoo today with Avery! 

Family Pictures

Ivan noticed that we take a lot of pictures of Avery but not many with Avery. We rarely have a picture with all three of us. So we decided to dress up a bit and take our nice camera over to grandma and grandpa's house for a little mini photo shoot. Here are a few of the good shots.
