9 month's old today and Halloween costume number 1

I love my Dalmation Halloween costume! I am crawling, smiling with my one tooth smile and making silly noises that make Mom and Dad laugh. (Except I discovered at dinner tonight that it is not funny to make those silly noises (raspberries) with a mouth full of food) Mom was not happy when I spit squash all over her and my clothes. :0 Sorry MOM!

Cider Mill

Mom, Dad and I went to the Cider Mill today. Mom and Dad had cider. They wouldn't let me have any. They say that I am too young.

They did show me all of the ducks that were swimming in the pond though. They were just like the ducks in my book.

Jacob is my friend

Jacob is a super smart 4 year old at day care that is my friend. He wrote me this note today. I am going to have mom hang it on the fridge!

In case you haven't learned how to read yet, it says, "Baby Avery - Hi. Hi. I love to sing for you. Jacob"

Geometry is Awesome!

I love shapes. I now know that these are an ellipse and a triangle.

Even with my eyes closed I would recognize a triangle.

Flour+Water+Food Coloring = FUN

Mom let me paint all over a piece of wax paper but I ripped it to shreads instead of painting on it, so mom just let me paint all over my face and all over the high chair. It was awesome!

Look Mom!

I can crawl... Or at least I can move forward in a motion that some might consider a form of crawling. I can jump my legs up and down while keeping my arms in place and then lunge forward until I am flat on my belly and then do it over and over until I have managed to get where I want to go.

Love my Winter Hat
