Fall

October is by far one of our busiest months. Busy is a good way, of course, but nevertheless still hectic. Since I knew I would never be able to write a single post for every exciting thing this month has brought us, I will do a quick recap!

Apple Picking:
Our first time apple picking was last year. This is something we have never done before moving to Ohio. Its definitely on the top of our "Things We Love!" list. Fun is always had by all!

We decided to head to Michigan for my and Ava's birthdays this year. Im glad we did. We had a really good time. Its been alittle difficult for Ava having our birthdays so close together. She gets SO excited about her birthday and then to have to celebrate mine two days before her big day makes her pretty bummed. :)

Rick and I were able to get a date night together to celebrate my birthday. It was nothing too exciting. We were able to eat at our favorite Mexican restaurant and do alittle shopping. Alsoooooo, I GOT A TATTOO! Ahhh. I had been thinking for a while about getting one... just something simple. Something that could easily be covered up. I started looking on Pinterest for some ideas. I figured that on my foot would be the easiest place to get something small but not too noticeable. Needless to say, I went through with it and Im really happy I did. I didn't cry. And since I rate everything on the scale of what it feels like to have a baby, it didn't hurt one bit! :)

 

While we were in Michigan, we decided to have a dinner at my parents house (that just happened to be on my birthday) to celebrate Ava's birthday. My parents, Ricks parents, my brother (my sister and her family were not able to make it!), and Beth with a couple of her kiddos came and Ava was so happy! Im so glad we were able to do that for her!
 

More on my baby girls birthday coming up next... :)
