Seems like my letter writing has started to take a bi-monthly trend. I may keep it that way for a bit. Just spontaneous maybe. We have been incredibly busy! Work, school, life, travel and the play of course! You have been wonderfully patient!
Your Gmomma sent you some sparkly shoes!
Your Mimi sent you some Halloween goodies too!
Your grandparents love you so much and spoil you exactly enough! We are so lucky to have them!
Your school celebrated Grandparents' Day on October 23rd. The preschool group performed two songs! One of them was In the Lord's Army and you were supposed to wear something camouflage. Well I knew you weren't going to want to do that so I got you some camo leg warmers. You wore them for a split second and then you weren't having it. So I decided to just put them in your backpack. Oddly, as we were just about to walk out the door you said, "I need a bow"! "The green one!", so I obliged.
Your daddy took off that morning and I took off that afternoon so we could come watch your performance and then you and I were off to a mommy/daughter date! You did SO good! We were SO impressed! AND you wore the leg warmers!! I was so excited! You looked adorable
Your teacher was pointing your parents to some of your classmates
And you wanted to know where your parents were!
That's your buddy Bryn! I totally intend on showing this photo at your wedding shower!
See how you're still looking for us!
When we finally got back stage to get you, you were visibly upset. I don't think you thought we were there! You were so relieved to see us! It was such a special moment! We will always be there baby, whenever we can!
After the celebration, you and I headed off to meet our friends Lindsey and Hazel for a little lunch and pedicures! I let you pick the color and you chose the ugliest green I've ever seen! But we got our toes that color anyway!
Your eye is crossing more and more! It's really hard to get you to wear your glasses but we are going to be better about it!
Afterwards we went book shopping for a ghost book. You had to have one! Followed by a quick trip to the "shops", a train ride and then we went to see a play at Street Theatre. It was an original play called "The Last Queen of Wonderland" and it was a steam-punk version and the set was a little dark and the music was a little spooky and you were not happy. You were determined to get out of there but I convinced you to at least wait until the show started and if you still wanted to go then we would. But just as I suspected once the show started you were all about it. There wasn't any dancing or music but the costumes were neat. We made it all the way through he first half. Then it was late and we headed home!
A quick nap in between shopping spots!
Riding the train is always a MUST!

The next morning you slept until 10:30am! TEN THIRTY!! I could hardly wait for you to wake up! I was so ready to play! We had bought some Jasmine Legos the night before and you so wanted to open then that night and I promised we would when you woke up! AND sure enough, the first words out of your mouth (at 10:30am) was Jasmine Legos?!? We didn't waste any time at all! Lego time it was!
Fun! So many pieces!
Tada!
It was one of the best days ever! We just hung around in our PJs all day, snacked, watched Inside Out and then we went to visit CC for a little bit! She just had surgery! (Thyroid/Schmyroid)
You might not be able to tell but you two were having the sweetest moment here!
Finally when daddy came home, we got all dressed up and went to Boo at the Zoo! You got your first taste of trick or treating and you DANCED the night away! We couldn't tear you from the dance floor! The Monster Mash! I was loving it! We all were!
For the longest time you said you wanted to be an Ocopus! Ursula! And Stella would be Ariel and I was going to be Flounder and daddy would be Sebastian. Well, just as I thought was going to happen, you opted for Ariel instead! Glad I got both costumes!
Princess pose!
You agreed to wear the wig for one picture and one picture only!
Break Dancing!
Sunday we celebrated Averie Grace's 7th birthday at Glow Galaxy! It took you a while to get comfortable but once you did we had a blast on the slides and bounce houses!
You refused to get in the group picture! You're my solo gal I suppose!
Later that night I had rehearsal so you and your daddy had a camp out!
A Bob Fossee move...at it's best!You were doing the "Step in Time" routine!
You better believe dance lessons are in our VERY near future!
I love you so much,
Mommy
