Crazy Love Gamble-Style

Ava is always cracking me up.   Always. The other day we were at Out of this World , a big warehouse filled with toys, things to jump on and things to climb, Ava insisted on bringing Hello Kitty. I wasn't so sure bringing Hello Kitty was a good idea. She might get lost. So every time Ava ran by I was tracking Hello Kitty,  making sure she still had her in tow. Sure enough the first 953 times she went by,  Hello Kitty was safely tucked under her arm. But on the 954th time I noticed she was missing. I alerted Ava to the problem and she looked very concerned. She couldn't remember what she did with her but she was  determined to find her QUICK!  She got Colton to help her and she ran through enlisting the help of the employees as she searched, going on a Hello Kitty hunt.  She came happily back squealing "I FOUND HER!!! I FOUND HER!!!" Great Ava!  Where did you find her?? Where was she? "Oh she was in

Norah thought he looked like he needed fresh air so she really pulled for us to go. Ava struggled with our decision but decided she would make the best of it. Katharina was just miserable the whole time, worrying about Camden's health. Camden questioned if his mom & sister had this much fun everyday while he was at school. Norah ate hay, she figured that reduces her chances of getting whatever he's got. She decided to throw caution to the wind and go be with Camden. He won't get me sick, he loves me, right??? Norah clapping, steals my heart, all 25 tim

So my sister works at Cushman & Wakefield and every year we attend their Halloween party, it is the best, not to be missed.  Due to the nature of this event falling several days before Halloween this year, YOU get to be bombarded with CUTE a little early. But you are pretty used to that around here right?  My very dear friend Katharina suggested I make Ava her Minnie ears, I asked her if she had met me?  Then suggested she make them and I pick them up on Wednesday, SEE WHAT A GREAT IDEA THAT WAS??!!! They are perfect! MOO! In the "Alligator" on the way up to Jessica's office, or elevator if you don't speak 3 year old. My Mom joined in on the fun! Auntie Kitty Moo, Meow.
