Ledges, Ledges, We All Fall Down

We visited the apple orchard and hiked around the Ledges this weekend. Fall is my favorite season and I love being outside-I love sharing these experiences with Olivia. 


















Enjoying the apple store....




 Look for the little monkey climbing the tree to get the best apples at the top.....Avery!


Enjoying some A & W for lunch





It was a rainy Saturday, but that didn't stop us from picking apples. Olivia seemed to enjoy sucking on the apples & throwing them when she was finished. It was a bunch of fun picking apples with the cousins at Deal's Orchard in Jefferson!










Stay tuned.....Olivia is growing up!

7 months and counting

 
Look who is growing up!
 
Olivia is continuing to be our little sweetheart as she is now 7 months!
She has a whole bag of tricks now......pulling up to stand, waving, rolling to get where she wants to go, practicing her pincer grasp with puffs, and sitting up on her own. She surprised me one evening when I went in to get her and she was sitting up in her crib. She is trying new foods, but still enjoys peas & green beans the best. Everything else doesn't stand a chance yet.




Enjoying breakfast at Hy-vee. She loves to grocery shop and look at everyone. 






Cheering on her team, the ISU Cyclones! They got another win over the in-state rival, Iowa. 

Playing peek-a-boo


Visiting Mom's school for Boogie on the Blacktop. All of the students kept coming up and telling her, she was adorable. The students were so excited to have a teacher having a baby last year. They are so sweet. 


Continuing to enjoy walks with mom on the weekends. The Fall is my favorite time of year.



Just playing around


Relaxing with mom as dad painted the living room.




Music class at Kindermusik- we sing songs, play with toys, and dance around


Preview of her 6 month pictures by Creative Cousins Photography in Boone. These get me excited to see the rest. She was such a trooper-she ended up having an ear infection that weekend.

Stay tuned.....as she keeps us on our toes!
