Fun with Baking

Every once in a while, Mo(m) gets inspired to do a little baking. Ava is always fascinated by all things kitchen related, but baking adds a new element for her to learn from. Now Ava has now discovered the benefit of baking, especially that of eating the dough right off of the beaters…

We also took advantage of the cooler weather to get out and play at the park. Sand and an old tractor are perfect to keep our little Ava occupied for a while….

Walking into the park (she knows the trail)

And she’s happy to point out the way….

Afterwards, a little swing time is perfect. Here she is making sure that she gets the bow out of her hair….

And happily posing for the camera.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Ava is looking forward to a feast…how about all of you?

Open Pantry + Ava = More Food for Chase

One of the challenges of our little mobile toddler is that she can open doors. So when we forget to fully shut the pantry door, she can get her little fingers in there to open it. Of course there is lots of fun stuff in the pantry – everything from her snacks to Chase’s dog food. Always on the lookout for her “big brother”, Ava loves to get into the pantry to hand feed Chase some of his food.
Under Chase’s watch….

And teasing Chase by pretending to eat his food…

When she’s not busy in the pantry, Ava is playing with her toys. Here’s a video of her taking her newest toy for a “spin”…Click the video below.
