Jenny and Ava Halloween - final batch

Here are the last two photos from Halloween tonight.  I just love these two photos of Jenny in her bumblebee costume.  She's getting so big but she's still adorable!  Ok - biased daddy.

Jenny and Ava on Halloween - batch 2

Here are some additional photos of Jenny and Ava tonight dressed up for Halloween.  Ava is now dressed as a strawberry and Jenny is out of her bumblebee costume.  Note that Ava is standing in some of the photos (she just starting taking steps!).

Ava and Jenny Halloween photos - batch 1

Here's the first batch of photos that Rachel took of Jenny and Ava tonight as they were all dressed up for Halloween.  As you can see, Jenny is a bumblebee and Ava is a mouse.  It was a lot of fun and both girls had a great time.  As you'll see in the next batch of photos, both of them had a costume change in the middle of the photo shoot -- very Hollywood. In the next photos, Ava is a strawberry and Jenny is out of her costume.  Then after Ava went to bed, Jenny and I went out trick or treating with some other kids from the neighborhood.  It was a really nice time.

Jenny and Ava before Jenny's soccer game

Here are a few good ones that I took this morning of Jenny and Ava before Jenny's soccer game.  The first few are of Ava before we got the kids dressed (note that she's eating the camera case).  The other ones are after they are dressed.

Last batch of Jenny b-day photos

Here's the last batch of photos from Jenny's b-day.  It includes a few good ones of Rachel with Jenny and her friends as well as Jenny in front of her b-day cupcake.  So sweet!  You can also see the birthday challah next to the cupcake -- a family tradition that Grandma Theda started a few years and go and that we always continue at Jenny's request.

Jenny and Ava at Jenny's b-day

Here are a few good ones that Rachel took of Jenny and Ava sitting on the parachute at Jenny's party.  They were having such a good time and Ava was not phased by any of it.

Jenny b-day -- Ava and Dad

Here's a really nice one that Rachel took of me and Ava.  She had such a good time at the party and most of the time she wanted to be down on the floor with the big kids.  But it was fun holding her whenever I got the chance!

Jenny's 7th b-day party - batch 1

Here are some photos from Jenny's 7th birthday party today (it was a pajama party).  I like a lot of the photos so I'll upload them in a few batches.  This group shows Jenny with her friends and you can see how comfortable she is.  There's also a good one of Ava.

Ava playing on the floor

After Ava eats breakfast, she likes to sit on the carpet near Jenny's crafts table and play while Jenny eats breakfast.  Here are a few good ones from last week showing the typical scene (of course, Ava was trying to put the toy in her mouth).

Ava in high chair

Here are a few good ones I took of Ava last week when she was having breakfast.  She just loves sitting in the high chair near Jenny and they eat breakfast together.

Jenny and Chloe

Here are two good ones of Jenny and her friend Chloe last weekend on the way to Cox Farms as part of the Gladney DC Family Association get together.  They were being silly in the back of the car and I thought these two photos captured the mood.
