Big 2 Year Old!

Our little girl is growing up right before our eyes.  She told me last week that she's "not a baby anymore" when I commented on how big she is getting, and yes I cried (just a little because I realized I was scaring her).  These days I'm always amazed at what comes out of her mouth.  She can count to 10 like a champ and her attempt at the ABC's is adorable.  She was so excited for her birthday at the Avila Barn she could hardly contain herself in the days leading up to it.  She would burst into squeals and sing happy birthday to herself over and over again, and once she found out cupcakes were involved it was almost too much for her to handle.  I think the day lived up to her expectations, here are some pictures (pretty much all involving cupcakes).

Cupcakes!!!
at one point she disappeared and we found her under the
 table eating cupcake crumbs that had fallen on the ground


No cupcakes for you goats, but you can have some lettuce. 


 Hayride!

Show me your funny face! 

 Why isn't Emmy looking at the camera?
Because she's locked onto the cupcakes!

At home Monday night for her actual birthday...
more cupcakes.

Yummy

Exuberant Emery

Although we don't condone jumping on the bed,
this was just too funny to resist capturing on film.

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!!!



It seems the holidays have imposed somewhat of a
blogging hiatus, but now that we're halfway through
February I think I can manage a few pics.


Backyard Bubbles!

Trouble is my middle name 

Emmy playing before Christmas dinner  


Time to eat...too bad she only sat in that highchair for 3.2 seconds 

I've got my Chanels, my goodie bag,
and the Morton's salt,
I'm readay to go! 

Hope everyone had happy holidays!

It's Avila Barn Time!

It's that time of year again...the air is getting crisp, pumpkins are starting to crop up, yes friends it's fall and that means it's Avila Barn time!  And what a difference a year makes!  Last year Emmy was 6 months old and she could barely sit by herself as I propped her up on pumpkins trying to get that perfect picture.  This year at 18 months I was lucky if I could get her to stand still long enough to take a picture!

Emmy finally gets to meet Stephanie!  
Crazy to think we've known each other since
